Abstract

A method and apparatus are disclosed for displaying the visual distribution of recommendation scores assigned to each television program by a television programming recommender. The visual distribution of recommendation scores can be presented to the user using a number of illustrative display formats. The invention defines a number of score ranges and indicates the number of television programs in each score range for a given time interval. Thus, the available programs are clustered based on their program recommendation scores. In addition, the visual presentation of the recommendation score distribution can be further improved by assigning a color to each score range. Thus, for a given time interval, the intensity (or saturation) of the color associated with a score range can be varied to indicate the corresponding number of programs having a recommendation score in the corresponding score range.
