Abstract

Determining the most desired product attributes would be crucial for companies that want to offer their clients those products which best fit their preferences. In this work, a genetic approach is employed for establishing the appropriate attribute weights of movies, determining which movie attributes are essential or dispensable for users in their selection process. The obtained weights are employed to predict user's ratings for a test set of movies, proving that the obtained parameters really describe their preferences.
