In particular, modern deep learning techniques applied to the pre-existing concept of recommender systems have given birth to a new, superior class of neural recommender systems, which are … Continue reading How Genify used a Transformer-based model to build a recommender system that outperforms industry benchmarks

Genify’s experience testing Amazon Personalize: learnings and limitations

Challenges of machine learning Machine learning is a complex field that borrows elements from different areas such as computer science, algebra and statistics. Hence, it is not immediate, even for experts in the field, to build strong machine learning models to solve predefined task. Furthermore, those models should also be optimized with a time-consuming and repetitive hyper-parameters search in order to find the best set … Continue reading Genify’s experience testing Amazon Personalize: learnings and limitations
