Abstract: A method and a client-side Recommender system on One-Way Broadcast Network includes at least a one-way channel connecting a broadcasting station to a set-top-box device of a first set of users, the set-top-box including a memory, a computation and driving unit for tracking the user activity, storing a user profile, generating and displaying a ranking of recommended media items, the ranking being determined by the computation unit through a recommender model stored on the memory. The system further includes a collaborative dual module, a first back-end module running on a auxiliary server connected to a two-way network and belonging to an auxiliary domain, this first back-end module leveraging external data sources to collect community based information on at least part of the media items, while the recommender model stored on the memory being a second front-end module, wherein the broadcasting station and the set-top-box device belong to a target domain.
