makeTransformation

public VectorTransformation makeTransformation(long user,
                                               SparseVector ratings)

Description copied from interface: UserVectorNormalizer

Make a vector transformation for a user. The resulting transformation will be applied to user vectors to normalize and denormalize them.

Specified by:

makeTransformation in interface UserVectorNormalizer

Parameters:

user - The user ID to normalize for.

ratings - The user's vector to use as the reference vector.

Returns:

The vector transformaition normalizing for this user.
