The updated list of my publications can be found in my google scholar page.

WrapRec Project
WrapRec, started in 2014, is an easy-to-use Recommender Systems evaluation toolkit that allows users to easily implement or wrap recommendation algorithms from other toolkits. The toolkit is written with C# and the source code is publicly available in Github.

Master Students Supervison
Recently, Bjarni Anrason graudated as a master student in the MMC group under my supervison. His topic was Influence of Auxiliary Features in Factorization-based Collaborative Filtering.
