lenskit-graph

Name

lenskit graph - produce a GraphViz diagram of a recommender configuration.

Synopsis

lenskit [GLOBAL OPTIONS] graph [OPTIONS] CONFIGS

Description

The graph command loads a LensKit algorithm configuration from one or more configuration files and produces a visualization of the resulting object graph. This visualization is in GraphViz DOT format, suitable for rendering with dot(1). Visualizing recommender configurations is often ueful for debugging configurations and making sure they produce the objects you expect.

Options

CONFIG

A Groovy script containing a LensKit algorithm file in the LensKit configuration DSL. If there are multiple configurations, the are passed in order to LenskitRecommenderEngineBuilder, so later configurations override earlier ones.

–help

Print usage help.

-o FILE, –output-file FILE

Write the GraphViz file to FILE. The default output file is recommender.dot.

–domain SPEC

Use the preference domain SPEC as the preference domain in the configuration. SPEC is of the form [LOW,HIGH]/PREC; the precision (and slash) can be omitted for continuously valued ratings. As an example, ‘[0.5,5.0]/0.5’ will be a domain from 0.5 to 5.0 stars with a granularity of 1/2 star.

–model-file FILE

Load a pre-trained model from FILE. In this mode, the configurations are applied as modifications to the model rather than used to build a graph from scratch. The mdoel file can be compressed.

This command also takes the standard script environment options.
