## Czech Book Recommendation System
This is a simple book recommendation system built using the Hugging Face transformers library and Gradio for the user interface. The system allows users to input a description of a book they are interested in, and it will return the top N most similar books from a pre-computed set of book embeddings.

### Features

- Allows users to input a book description in Czech language
- Retrieves the top N most similar books based on the user's input

The system uses the [intfloat/multilingual-e5-large](https://huggingface.co/intfloat/multilingual-e5-large) model from Hugging Face to generate embeddings for the book descriptions.
This project uses the [vojtam/czech_books_descriptions](https://huggingface.co/datasets/vojtam/czech_books_descriptions) dataset.
