Collaborative Filtering without ratings

Hi there,
I'm very new to Mahout and recommender systems. I have made my first
steps with mahout in java and mahout is really nice and quite "simple"
to use.
In my scenario I want to use Mahout as recommender for music. I have
many tracks and users and a set of what each user has listen at a
particular timestamp. Does Mahout support a recommender who can
recommender for a datafile without ratings? Something like
<userid>,<trackid> ?

Thanks in advance.
Best Regards
Simon

You just use the same value for all ratings, like '1.0' v.s. '0.0' for
no rating found.

Hi Simon,
yes, this is possible. The following demo project is doing that:

https://github.com/ManuelB/facebook-recommender-demo

If you replace the Demo file with your data file you are ready to go.
https://github.com/ManuelB/facebook-recommender-demo/blob/master/src/main/resources/DemoFriendsLikes.csv
(Actually only the first to entries are needed)

Here is a well documented EJB which is doing the complete recommender part:
https://github.com/ManuelB/facebook-recommender-demo/blob/master/src/main/java/de/apaxo/bedcon/FacebookRecommender.java

Hope that helps
    Manuel
