A Collaborative Approach to Angel and Venture Capital Investment Recommendations

26 Jul 2018  ·  Xinyi Liu, Artit Wangperawong ·

Matrix factorization was used to generate investment recommendations for investors. An iterative conjugate gradient method was used to optimize the regularized squared-error loss function. The number of latent factors, number of iterations, and regularization values were explored. Overfitting can be addressed by either early stopping or regularization parameter tuning. The model achieved the highest average prediction accuracy of 13.3%. With a similar model, the same dataset was used to generate investor recommendations for companies undergoing fundraising, which achieved highest prediction accuracy of 11.1%.
