The prediction software running behind the scenes is based on the Slope One algorithm developed by Daniel Lemire and Anna Maclachlan. You can read more about Slope One at the following web sites:
There are other enhancements I plan on making to the prediction feature to help improve results, and as I work on them, I'll keep you informed.
