Machine learning for new friends recommendation in NTU

NiceToMeetU (NTmU) was developed as a friend recommendation system to help undergraduate students in Nanyang Technological University (NTU) to make new friends on campus. While the project is a continuous effort, my work involves mainly creating a software application for users. Previous work...
