 This repository contains examples and best practices for building recommendation systems, provided as Jupyter notebooks. The examples detail our learnings on five key tasks:
 
-- [Prepare Data](examples/01_prepare_data): Preparing and loading data for each recommender algorithm
+- [Prepare Data](examples/01_prepare_data): Preparing and loading data for each recommender algorithm.
 - [Model](examples/00_quick_start): Building models using various classical and deep learning recommender algorithms such as Alternating Least Squares ([ALS](https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/api/python/_modules/pyspark/ml/recommendation.html#ALS)) or eXtreme Deep Factorization Machines ([xDeepFM](https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.05170)).
-- [Evaluate](examples/03_evaluate): Evaluating algorithms with offline metrics
-- [Model Select and Optimize](examples/04_model_select_and_optimize): Tuning and optimizing hyperparameters for recommender models
-- [Operationalize](examples/05_operationalize): Operationalizing models in a production environment on Azure

+- [Model Select and Optimize](examples/04_model_select_and_optimize): Tuning and optimizing hyperparameters for recommender models.
+- [Operationalize](examples/05_operationalize): Operationalizing models in a production environment on Azure.
 
 Several utilities are provided in [recommenders](recommenders) to support common tasks such as loading datasets in the format expected by different algorithms, evaluating model outputs, and splitting training/test data. Implementations of several state-of-the-art algorithms are included for self-study and customization in your own applications.

 For Spark features to work, make sure Java and Spark are installed and respective environment varialbes such as `JAVA_HOME`, `SPARK_HOME` and `HADOOP_HOME` are set properly. Also make sure environment variables `PYSPARK_PYTHON` and `PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON` are set to the the same python executable.
