CDMF: A Deep Learning Model based on Convolutional and Dense-layer Matrix Factorization for Context-Aware Recommendation
We proposes a novel deep neural network based recommendation model named Convolutional and Dense-layer Matrix Factorization (CDMF) for Context-aware recommendation, which is to combine multi-source information from item description and tag information. CDMF adopts a convolution neural network to extract hidden feature from item description as document and then fuses it with tag information via a full connection layer, thus generates a comprehensive feature vector. Based on the matrix factorization method, CDMF makes rating prediction based on the fused information of both users and items. Experiments on a real dataset show that the proposed deep learning model obviously outperforms the state-of-art recommendation methods
Deep Learning based Recommender System: A Survey and New Perspectives
With the ever-growing volume of online information, recommender systems have
been an effective strategy to overcome such information overload. The utility
of recommender systems cannot be overstated, given its widespread adoption in
many web applications, along with its potential impact to ameliorate many
problems related to over-choice. In recent years, deep learning has garnered
considerable interest in many research fields such as computer vision and
natural language processing, owing not only to stellar performance but also the
attractive property of learning feature representations from scratch. The
influence of deep learning is also pervasive, recently demonstrating its
effectiveness when applied to information retrieval and recommender systems
research. Evidently, the field of deep learning in recommender system is
flourishing. This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of recent
research efforts on deep learning based recommender systems. More concretely,
we provide and devise a taxonomy of deep learning based recommendation models,
along with providing a comprehensive summary of the state-of-the-art. Finally,
we expand on current trends and provide new perspectives pertaining to this new
exciting development of the field.Comment: The paper has been accepted by ACM Computing Surveys.

Transfer Meets Hybrid: A Synthetic Approach for Cross-Domain Collaborative Filtering with Text
Collaborative filtering (CF) is the key technique for recommender systems
(RSs). CF exploits user-item behavior interactions (e.g., clicks) only and
hence suffers from the data sparsity issue. One research thread is to integrate
auxiliary information such as product reviews and news titles, leading to
hybrid filtering methods. Another thread is to transfer knowledge from other
source domains such as improving the movie recommendation with the knowledge
from the book domain, leading to transfer learning methods. In real-world life,
no single service can satisfy a user's all information needs. Thus it motivates
us to exploit both auxiliary and source information for RSs in this paper. We
propose a novel neural model to smoothly enable Transfer Meeting Hybrid (TMH)
methods for cross-domain recommendation with unstructured text in an end-to-end
manner. TMH attentively extracts useful content from unstructured text via a
memory module and selectively transfers knowledge from a source domain via a
transfer network. On two real-world datasets, TMH shows better performance in
terms of three ranking metrics by comparing with various baselines. We conduct
thorough analyses to understand how the text content and transferred knowledge
help the proposed model.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figures, a full version for the WWW 2019 short pape
TransNets: Learning to Transform for Recommendation
Recently, deep learning methods have been shown to improve the performance of
recommender systems over traditional methods, especially when review text is
available. For example, a recent model, DeepCoNN, uses neural nets to learn one
latent representation for the text of all reviews written by a target user, and
a second latent representation for the text of all reviews for a target item,
and then combines these latent representations to obtain state-of-the-art
performance on recommendation tasks. We show that (unsurprisingly) much of the
predictive value of review text comes from reviews of the target user for the
target item. We then introduce a way in which this information can be used in
recommendation, even when the target user's review for the target item is not
available. Our model, called TransNets, extends the DeepCoNN model by
introducing an additional latent layer representing the target user-target item
pair. We then regularize this layer, at training time, to be similar to another
latent representation of the target user's review of the target item. We show
that TransNets and extensions of it improve substantially over the previous
state-of-the-art.Comment: Accepted for publication in the 11th ACM Conference on Recommender

NRPA: Neural Recommendation with Personalized Attention
Existing review-based recommendation methods usually use the same model to
learn the representations of all users/items from reviews posted by users
towards items. However, different users have different preference and different
items have different characteristics. Thus, the same word or similar reviews
may have different informativeness for different users and items. In this paper
we propose a neural recommendation approach with personalized attention to
learn personalized representations of users and items from reviews. We use a
review encoder to learn representations of reviews from words, and a user/item
encoder to learn representations of users or items from reviews. We propose a
personalized attention model, and apply it to both review and user/item
encoders to select different important words and reviews for different
users/items. Experiments on five datasets validate our approach can effectively
improve the performance of neural recommendation.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
