Hands-on Clojure: Collaborative Filtering

[Ray Miller]

Our next meetup will be a hands-on coding session along similar lines
to the London Clojure Dojos [*]. We will have a go at implementing
some collaborative filtering algorithms to make movie recommendations.

Where? Upstairs at The Fountain, 12 Regent Street, Cambridge, CB2 1DB

When? Thursday 22nd August 2013, from 1900-2200.

Who? This event is open to all, from beginner to expert.

Free beer! This meetup is sponsored by Metail, who are covering venue
hire and the drinks. Metail is recruiting! If you want to work in an
exciting startup environment where you can build out your Clojure
webdev skils, check out the job listing
<http://metail.com/job/junior-web-software-engineer-clojure/>.

You don't need any prior Clojure experience to attend this event; we
hope to have enough experienced developers on hand to get everyone
started.

Please sign up on Meetup if you plan to attend: <http://meetu.ps/1Y34WR>

If you have a laptop, please bring it along. There are a couple of
things you can do before the Meetup, you'll find some setup notes and
suggested background reading (entirely optional!) here:
<http://github.com/cam-clj/Recommendations>.
It would be particularly useful if you could download the test data
set and suggested dependencies before the Meetup, just in case the
pub's wi-fi proves unreliable.

On the day, look for us in the first floor room at the Fountain, which
we have exclusive use of until 10pm. The pub doesn't do a wide range
of food, but you will be able to order from a selection of flat breads
at the bar until 9pm.

I hope to see you next week!

Ray.
