Boxplots showing the average pairwise user similarity of the four subgroups using the cosine similarity calculated on the users’ genre distributions. While the users in \(U_{\text{hard}}\) and \(U_{\text{elec}}\) exhibit a more diverse listening behavior, users in \(U_{\text{folk}}\) and \(U_{\text{ambi}}\) tend to listen to more similar, i.e., less diverse, music genres
