sci-kit learn is excellent, but their implementations are a bit to complicated to learn from.

this is for people who don't just want to tune parameters but build the whole thing from scratch

I can buy buy a pie all the fix-ins from a bakery, or I can buy the ingredients myself, and make it to exactly my liking. it may not be a professional.

Just tried it with an equities dataset http://54.174.116.134/recommend/datasets and it seems to have performed nicely. Great work!

Would you suggest any books/resources to learn the theory behind these implementations so a newbie can follow along?

Deliver and release stuf that people actually use. Or work on projects that do.

Delivering value trumps painting every day

This is a nice project. I think it would be great to add references used for the implementations and some tests that demonstrate they return what is expected (or perhaps the same result of sklearn maybe).
