request for the qualifying.txt

[jianguda]

Hey, i am doing a work of optimizing the RMSE of Collaborative Filtering ( i think RBM could perform better combined with louvain, the community dectection algorithm ). And i am searching the qualifying.txt which was said to be provided officially when the competition is over. Would you please send one copy if you still hold one ? 3Q very much

I have the qualify.bin as output from this: https://github.com/gbildson/nprizeadditions/blob/master/other/qualify2bin.py

but I don't have the qualify.txt handy anywhere.

It appears to be a binary representation of qualify.txt. Would that help? Netflix doesn't want this data publicly available so if so, send me your email address.

Hi, just notifying that Movielens recently published a 20M ratings dataset that is free of any legal obligation except "fair use" and can be found at the following location : http://grouplens.org/datasets/movielens/20m/

Regards.

i rethink the MovieLens dataset, maybe it is more suitable to evaluate my idea. 3Q @KeepKool

Ditto, I didn't know about the Louvain algorithm and may have a look at it eventually [=
