model-based collaborative filtering, in which users and products are described
by a small set of latent factors that can be used to predict missing entries.
In particular, we implement the [alternating least squares

following parameters:

It is common in many real-world use cases to only have access to *implicit feedback*
(e.g. views, clicks, purchases, likes, shares etc.). The approach used in MLlib to deal with
such data is taken from
[Collaborative Filtering for Implicit Feedback Datasets](http://www2.research.att.com/~yifanhu/PUB/cf.pdf).
[Collaborative Filtering for Implicit Feedback Datasets](http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/ICDM.2008.22).
Essentially instead of trying to model the matrix of ratings directly, this approach treats the data as
a combination of binary preferences and *confidence values*. The ratings are then related
to the level of confidence in observed user preferences, rather than explicit ratings given to items.
