Details

The main goal of this project is to develop a personalized events recommender system that suggests events to users based on their preferences and behaviors, using aggregated event data. This involves building a recommendation algorithm, integrating it with an event aggregator platform, and designing an engaging user interface to display the recommendations, ultimately enhancing user engagement with the platform.
