Research direction

Review the existing FlexMF design and assess whether factorization-machine support belongs there or in a new lenskit.fm package. First clarify the scoring-model API and expected behavior, then define the implementation scope and validation needed for support to be complete.

Description

components

I want to add support for factorization machine scoring models, using an existing library.

The current state of maintenance of most FM libraries is not great, so it is probably best to just directly implement a factorization machine as a part of FlexMF or a new lenskit.fm package.
