All matrix factorization recommenders inherit from this class
componentsitem embeddings
predict()recommends items for users
MatrixFactorizationRecommender$predict( x, k, not_recommend = x, items_exclude = integer(0), ... )
xuser-item interactions matrix (usually sparse - `Matrix::sparseMatrix`).Users are rows and items are columns
knumber of items to recommend
not_recommenduser-item matrix (sparse) which describes which items method should NOT recomment for each user. Usually this is same as `x` as we don't want to recommend items user already liked.
items_excludeeither integer indices or character identifiers of the items to not recommend to any user.
