Abstract

Popular online services, such as Amazon.com, provide recommendations for users by using other users' rating scores for items. In this study, we describe three types of rating systems: score-rated, count-rated, and digital-rated. We hypothesize that digital-rated systems provide the most useful recommendations. Then we analyze the differences in the results of the rating when the granularity of the score changes. Finally, we visualize users by developing a 2-D visualization system that uses a multi-dimensional scaling method.
