Abstract

Recommendations are an integral part of data exploration. Existing approaches, however, consider a limited model of recommendations. In this vision paper, we lay the ground for a graph-based approach for recommendations that allows significant flexibility in capturing both data and recommendations and process them efficiently. We determine the requirements of a desired solution and illustrate the overall idea with an example based on the Yelp dataset.
