Neural Attentive Session-based Recommendation
Given e-commerce scenarios that user profiles are invisible, session-based
recommendation is proposed to generate recommendation results from short
sessions. Previous work only considers the user's sequential behavior in the
current session, whereas the user's main purpose in the current session is not
emphasized. In this paper, we propose a novel neural networks framework, i.e.,
Neural Attentive Recommendation Machine (NARM), to tackle this problem.
Specifically, we explore a hybrid encoder with an attention mechanism to model
the user's sequential behavior and capture the user's main purpose in the
current session, which are combined as a unified session representation later.
We then compute the recommendation scores for each candidate item with a
bi-linear matching scheme based on this unified session representation. We
train NARM by jointly learning the item and session representations as well as
their matchings. We carried out extensive experiments on two benchmark
datasets. Our experimental results show that NARM outperforms state-of-the-art
baselines on both datasets. Furthermore, we also find that NARM achieves a
significant improvement on long sessions, which demonstrates its advantages in
modeling the user's sequential behavior and main purpose simultaneously.Comment: Proceedings of the 2017 ACM on Conference on Information and

Session-based Recommendation with Graph Neural Networks
The problem of session-based recommendation aims to predict user actions
based on anonymous sessions. Previous methods model a session as a sequence and
estimate user representations besides item representations to make
recommendations. Though achieved promising results, they are insufficient to
obtain accurate user vectors in sessions and neglect complex transitions of
items. To obtain accurate item embedding and take complex transitions of items
into account, we propose a novel method, i.e. Session-based Recommendation with
Graph Neural Networks, SR-GNN for brevity. In the proposed method, session
sequences are modeled as graph-structured data. Based on the session graph, GNN
can capture complex transitions of items, which are difficult to be revealed by
previous conventional sequential methods. Each session is then represented as
the composition of the global preference and the current interest of that
session using an attention network. Extensive experiments conducted on two real
datasets show that SR-GNN evidently outperforms the state-of-the-art
session-based recommendation methods consistently.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures, accepted by AAAI Conference on Artificial

Signed Distance-based Deep Memory Recommender
Personalized recommendation algorithms learn a user's preference for an item
by measuring a distance/similarity between them. However, some of the existing
recommendation models (e.g., matrix factorization) assume a linear relationship
between the user and item. This approach limits the capacity of recommender
systems, since the interactions between users and items in real-world
applications are much more complex than the linear relationship. To overcome
this limitation, in this paper, we design and propose a deep learning framework
called Signed Distance-based Deep Memory Recommender, which captures non-linear
relationships between users and items explicitly and implicitly, and work well
in both general recommendation task and shopping basket-based recommendation
task. Through an extensive empirical study on six real-world datasets in the
two recommendation tasks, our proposed approach achieved significant
improvement over ten state-of-the-art recommendation models
Latent Relational Metric Learning via Memory-based Attention for Collaborative Ranking
This paper proposes a new neural architecture for collaborative ranking with
implicit feedback. Our model, LRML (\textit{Latent Relational Metric Learning})
is a novel metric learning approach for recommendation. More specifically,
instead of simple push-pull mechanisms between user and item pairs, we propose
to learn latent relations that describe each user item interaction. This helps
to alleviate the potential geometric inflexibility of existing metric learing
approaches. This enables not only better performance but also a greater extent
of modeling capability, allowing our model to scale to a larger number of
interactions. In order to do so, we employ a augmented memory module and learn
to attend over these memory blocks to construct latent relations. The
memory-based attention module is controlled by the user-item interaction,
making the learned relation vector specific to each user-item pair. Hence, this
can be interpreted as learning an exclusive and optimal relational translation
for each user-item interaction. The proposed architecture demonstrates the
state-of-the-art performance across multiple recommendation benchmarks. LRML
outperforms other metric learning models by in terms of Hits@10 and
nDCG@10 on large datasets such as Netflix and MovieLens20M. Moreover,
qualitative studies also demonstrate evidence that our proposed model is able
to infer and encode explicit sentiment, temporal and attribute information
despite being only trained on implicit feedback. As such, this ascertains the
ability of LRML to uncover hidden relational structure within implicit
datasets.Comment: WWW 201
