Zoosk: 6 (six) long years operating at a loss ???
http://onlinedatingsoundbarrier.blogspot.com.ar/2014/03/zoosk-6-six-long-years-operating-at-loss.html
Please remember: SmartPick feature from Zoosk (formerly known as Zoosk's Scientific Matchmaking Service (ZSMS) ) is only a Behavioural Recommender System like Synapse from Match or UltraMatch from PlentyOfFish (POF) and Behavioural Recommender Systems CAN NOT outperform compatibility matching engines based on personality similarity. Several times I had written about punches to behavioural matching algorithms like the one used at Match, the one used at Zoosk, and the one used at PlentyOfFish (POF).
Behavioural recommender systems or other system that learns your preferences are useless for serious online dating purposes and Personality Based Recommender Systems are the next generation of recommender systems because they perform far better than Behavioural ones (past actions and pattern of personal preferences)
That is the only way to improve recommender systems, to include the personality traits of their users. They need to calculate personality similarity between users.
