    Abstract: A method of explaining why an item has been recommended to a user comprises determining a value for the preference of the user for the recommended item based on data relating to the user and the item. This may be in the form of an interaction score. The user data is then modified to reduce the determined preference value such that the recommended item would not be recommended to the user. The modified user data is then used to determine preference values for items with which the user has interacted. These will be different from previously determined preference values based on the unmodified user data. From these preference values it is then possible to identify one or more items with which the user has interacted, for which the determined preference values differ most from previously determined preference values. It can be concluded that the interaction of the user with these identified item(s) is the antecedent for the recommended item being recommended.
