Recommender Systems Complete Course Beginner to Advanced - Project Amazon Product Recommendation System: Candidate Tower

The video tutorial covers the development of a candidate tower using Keras, followed by the creation of an embedding layer. It then explains the construction of a retrieval system using TensorFlow, focusing on user-item interactions and model evaluation through factorized top K metrics. The tutorial concludes with a summary of the model's components and hints at the next steps involving the loss function.
