De-emphasizing by comparing attributes with the target
You can move items to the end of the recommendation list by comparing the value of an attribute with the value of the same attribute on the target.
About this task
One of the comparison options is by node. For more information, see What is a node?
Just as your items can have relationships in the context of sets or matches, they can also have relationships that make them mutually exclusive. For example, if you have the kind of relationships between items such that item A must never be included in the recommendations for item B.
If your catalog has these kinds of relationships and you want to exclude or de-emphasize items based on one-to-one relationships, complete the following steps.
Procedure
- Click Update Rules in the Rule Set.
- Select De-emphasis by Criteria as the Rule Class.
- Select De-emphasis by Attribute as the Rule Type.
- Select Recommendation attribute to target attribute de-emphasis as the Rule Sub Type.
- Select the attribute that you want to compare.
- Specify how you want to compare the values of the attribute. The list of available operators changes depending on the type of data the attribute uses.
