In contrast to industry, which tenders horrendous prizes for researching and improving such \textit{baselines}, there is a lack of such motivation in the scientific field.

In addition, basic terms and the results obtained are presented in a way that is comprehensible to the non-experienced reader. +For this purpose, the submission is divided into three subject areas. First of all, the non-experienced reader is introduced to the topic of recommender systems in the section ``\textit{A Study on Recommender Systems}``. Subsequently, building on the first section, the work in the section ``\textit{On the Diffculty of Evaluating Baselines}`` is presented in detail. The results are then evaluated in a critical discourse. \ No newline at end of file diff --git a/submission.pdf b/submission.pdf index 27e09aa140cd03912cc567e266226d4a05ea5da7..1a19cab2d18e8f5381775cda9beea5fa47bce19e 100644 Binary files a/submission.pdf and b/submission.pdf differ
