AWS – Amazon Personalize now supports offline model metrics for recommenders

Amazon Personalize now provides offline model metrics for recommenders enabling you to evaluate the quality of recommendations.

Offline metrics allow you to compare the model with other models trained on the same data. The metrics provided include coverage, mean reciprocal rank, normalized discounted cumulative gain (NDCG) and precision.
