Leveraging Deep Learning Techniques on Collaborative Filtering Recommender Systems
With the exponentially increasing volume of online data, searching and
finding required information have become an extensive and time-consuming task.
Recommender Systems as a subclass of information retrieval and decision support
systems by providing personalized suggestions helping users access what they
need more efficiently. Among the different techniques for building a
recommender system, Collaborative Filtering (CF) is the most popular and
widespread approach. However, cold start and data sparsity are the fundamental
challenges ahead of implementing an effective CF-based recommender. Recent
successful developments in enhancing and implementing deep learning
architectures motivated many studies to propose deep learning-based solutions
for solving the recommenders' weak points. In this research, unlike the past
similar works about using deep learning architectures in recommender systems
that covered different techniques generally, we specifically provide a
comprehensive review of deep learning-based collaborative filtering recommender
systems. This in-depth filtering gives a clear overview of the level of
popularity, gaps, and ignored areas on leveraging deep learning techniques to
build CF-based systems as the most influential recommenders.Comment: 24 pages, 14 figure
