The study aims to present an architecture for a recommendation system based on user items that are transformed into narrow categories. In particular, to identify the movies a user will likely watch based on their favorite items. The recommendation system focuses on the shortest connections between item correlations. The degree of attention paid to user-group relationships provides another valuable piece of information obtained by joining the sub-groups. Various relationships have been used to reduce the data sparsity problem. We reformulate the existing data into several groups of items and users. As part of the calculations and containment of activities, we consider Pearson similarity, cosine similarity, Euclidean distance, the Gaussian distribution rule, matrix factorization, EM algorithm, and k-nearest neighbors (KNN). It is also demonstrated that the proposed methods could moderate possible recommendations from diverse perspectives.
