Project Summary[edit]
Methods[edit]
We would analyse the relations between the Wikipedia pages graph and users' search and then try to make predictions that could be used as suggestions if relevant
Dissemination[edit]
This is a class based project. I don't think there is any requirement to keep results/code private and if so we would share what is of interest. If results are of particular importance, we might publish a paper.
Wikimedia Policies, Ethics, and Human Subjects Protection[edit]
Benefits for the Wikimedia community[edit]
If results are good, this would let the Wikipedia fondation have a better understanding of the way people look for knowledge. It could also enhance users experience if relevant recommendations were made to them.
Timeline[edit]
We would like to start working on this as shortly as possible. This is a project for a Machine Learning class me and Kevin are taking at MIT. The project would end in mid December.
