LensKit

LensKit is a set of Python tools for experimenting with and studying recommender systems. It provides support for training, running, and evaluating recommender algorithms in a flexible fashion suitable for research and education.

LensKit for Python (also known as LKPY) is the successor to the Java-based LensKit toolkit and a part of the LensKit project.
