This document outlines a project to develop a content-based movie recommender system using the TMDB dataset. The system aims to provide personalized movie recommendations to users based on similarity between movies' genres, overview, and other attributes. It will implement cosine similarity to calculate movie similarity and preprocess the dataset to extract relevant features. The proposed system addresses limitations of collaborative filtering by analyzing movies' content features and generating recommendations tailored to users' preferences.

3. OBJECTIVE
The primary objective of this project is to develop a
content-based movie recommender system using
the TMDB dataset. The system aims to provide
personalized movie recommendations to users based
on the similarity of movie content features such as
genres, overview, and other relevant attributes. The
key objectives include:
Implementing cosine similarity to calculate the
similarity between movies.
Preprocessing the dataset to extract and
engineer relevant features.
Enhancing user experience by providing accurate
and relevant movie recommendations.

4. ABSTRACT
UNLIKE COLLABORATIVE FILTERING METHODS, WHICH RELY ON
USER-ITEM INTERACTIONS, THIS SYSTEM LEVERAGES MOVIE
CONTENT FEATURES TO GENERATE RECOMMENDATIONS. BY
ANALYZING ATTRIBUTES SUCH AS GENRES, OVERVIEW, AND OTHER
TEXTUAL INFORMATION, THE SYSTEM COMPUTES THE SIMILARITY
BETWEEN MOVIES USING COSINE SIMILARITY.
THROUGH THIS APPROACH, USERS CAN DISCOVER NEW MOVIES
BASED ON THE CONTENT THEY ENJOY, ENHANCING THEIR OVERALL
VIEWING EXPERIENCE.
IN THE ERA OF DIGITAL ENTERTAINMENT, USERS OFTEN FACE THE
CHALLENGE OF FINDING MOVIES TAILORED TO THEIR PREFERENCES
AMIDST A VAST ARRAY OF OPTIONS. TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE, THIS
PROJECT PROPOSES A CONTENT-BASED MOVIE RECOMMENDER
SYSTEM.

5. Hardware
HARDWARE & SOFTWARE
REQUIREMENTS
Hardware Requirements:

Updates: Develop
mechanisms to update
recommendations in

exploration of
recommended movies.

7. CONCLUSION:
The content-based movie recommender system presented in
this project offers a valuable solution to the challenge of movie
discovery. By leveraging movie content features and cosine
similarity, the system provides users with personalized
recommendations, thereby enhancing their movie-watching
experience. With further feature enhancements and user
feedback integration, the system can continuously improve its
recommendation accuracy and adaptability to evolving user
preferences.

8. EXISTING SYSTEM:
The existing movie recommendation systems
predominantly rely on collaborative filtering techniques,
which analyze user-item interactions to generate
recommendations. While effective, these systems may suffer
from cold start problems and sparsity issues, particularly for
new users or items with limited interactions.
Content-based recommendation systems offer an
alternative approach by focusing on the intrinsic
characteristics of items. However, they may face challenges
in capturing complex user preferences and serendipitous
recommendations

9. PROPOSED SYSTEM:
In contrast to traditional collaborative filtering methods, the
proposed content-based movie recommender system
utilizes cosine similarity to measure the similarity between
movies based on their content features. By analyzing
attributes such as genres, overview, and textual information,
the system generates personalized recommendations
tailored to users' preferences. This approach addresses the
limitations of collaborative filtering systems and provides
users with relevant and diverse movie recommendations,
ultimately enhancing their movie-watching experience.
