The authors prsent an intruiging method that creates a network of interests and social identities (where the weights of edges between network nodes denote the degree of relatedness) to facilitate recommender systems and as a method for determining a person's identity from some of their interests. This is a very interesting paper and, combined with some of the recent work on ConceptNet and the Alpiri Project, is part of the growing work that uses network models to acheive gains in performance over more statistically based methods. The ideas presented about the InterestMap structure are very interesting and further examination of this network structure may be useful.
