Currently I'm looking for efficient way to build a matrix of rating for recommendation system in Python.
The matrix should look like this:
4|0|0|
5|2|0|
5|0|0|
4|0|0|
4|0|0|
4|0|0|
4|4|0|
2|0|0|
0|4|0|
0|3|0|
0|0|3|
0|0|5|
0|0|4|
Specifically, the columns are business_id
and the rows are user_id
|bus-1|bus-2|
user-1|stars|stars|
user-2|stars|stars|
Currently I'm using this Yelp review data set stored in MongoDB:
_id: "----X0BIDP9tA49U3RvdSQ"
user_id: "gVmUR8rqUFdbSeZbsg6z_w"
business_id: "Ue6-WhXvI-_1xUIuapl0zQ"
stars: 4
useful: 1
funny: 0
cool: 0
text: "Red, white and bleu salad was super yum and a great addition to the me..."
date: "2014-02-17 16:48:49"
My approach is by building a list of unique business_id
and user_id
from review table and querying those value in review table again.
I've included my code here, as you can see because of the brute force approach, it took a long time just to build small matrix just like the one I included earlier.
Here's some snippet of my code:
def makeBisnisArray(cityNameParam):
arrayBisnis = []
#Append business id filtered by cityNameParam to the bisnis array
bisnisInCity = colBisnis.find({"city": cityNameParam})
for bisnis in bisnisInCity:
#if the business id is not in array, then append it to the array
if(not(bisnis in arrayBisnis)):
arrayBisnis.append(bisnis["_id"])
return arrayBisnis
def makeUserArray(bisnisName):
global arrayUser
#find review filtered by bisnisName
hslReview = colReview.find({"business_id": bisnisName})
for review in hslReview:
#if the user id is not already in array, append it to the array
if(not(review['user_id'] in arrayUser)):
arrayUser.append(review['user_id'])
def writeRatingMatrix(arrayBisnis, arrayUser):
f = open("file.txt", "w")
for user in arrayUser:
for bisnis in arrayBisnis:
#find one instance from the database by business_id and user_id
x = colReview.find_one({"business_id": bisnis, "user_id": user})
#if there's none, then just write the rating as 0
if x is None :
f.write('0|')
#if found, write the star value
else:
f.write((str(x['stars'])+"|"))
print()
f.write('\n')
def buildCityTable(cityName):
arrayBisnis = makeBisnisArray(cityName)
global arrayUser
for bisnis in arrayBisnis:
makeUserArray(bisnis)
writeRatingMatrix(arrayBisnis, arrayUser)
arrayUser = []
cityNameVar = 'Pointe-Aux-Trembles'
buildCityTable(cityNameVar)
Can anyone suggest more efficient way to build the rating matrix for me?
There are several general approaches you can take to speed this up.
Something like this
users = {}
businesses = {}
ratings = {}
for entry in yelp_entries:
if entry['user_id'] not in users:
users[entry['user_id']] = len(users)
if entry['business_id'] not in businesses:
businesses[entry['business_id']] = len(businesses)
ratings.append((
users[[entry['user_id']],
businesses[entry['business_id']],
entry['stars']
))
matrix = numpy.tile(0, (len(users), len(businesses))
for r in ratings:
matrix[r[0]][r[1]] = r[2]
I modified @sirlark's code to match my need, but for some reason i cannot use append on ratings and iterate over it with for r in ratings so i had to change the code like this
users = {}
businesses = {}
ratings = {}
#Query the yelp_entries for all reviews matching business_id and store it in businesses first
for entry in yelp_entries:
if entry['business_id'] not in businesses:
businesses[entry['business_id']] = len(businesses)
if entry['user_id'] not in users:
users[entry['user_id']] = len(users)
ratings[len(ratings)]=(users[entry['user_id']],
businesses[entry['business_id']],
int(entry['stars']))
matrix = numpy.tile(0, (len(users), len(businesses))
for ind in range(0,len(ratings)):
matrix[ratings[ind][0]][ratings[ind][1]] = ratings[ind][2]
Later i found out that other than using tile method We can also use SciPy_coo matrix which is slightly faster than above method, but we need to modify the code a bit
from scipy.sparse import coo_matrix
users = {}
businesses = {}
ratings = {}
row = []
col = []
data = []
for entry in yelp_entries:
if entry['business_id'] not in businesses:
businesses[entry['business_id']] = len(businesses)
if entry['user_id'] not in users:
users[entry['user_id']] = len(users)
col.append(businesses[review['business_id']])
row.append(users[review['user_id']])
data.append(int(review['stars']))
matrix = coo_matrix((data, (row, col))).toarray()
note : Later i found out the reason why i can't .append() or .add() to ratings variable is because
ratings = {}
counts as dict data type, to declare a set data type you should use this instead:
ratings = set()
