Abstract
This work proposes a new methodology for the Group Recommendation problem. In this approach we choose the Most Representative User (MRU) as the group medoid in a user space projection, and then generate the recommendation list based on his preferences. We evaluate our proposal by using the well-known dataset Movie lens. We have taken two different measures so as to evaluate the group recommender strategies. The obtained results seem promising and our strategy has shown an empirical robustness compared with the baselines in the literature.
