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.

Encouraging LSTMs to Anticipate Actions Very Early
In contrast to the widely studied problem of recognizing an action given a
complete sequence, action anticipation aims to identify the action from only
partially available videos. As such, it is therefore key to the success of
computer vision applications requiring to react as early as possible, such as
autonomous navigation. In this paper, we propose a new action anticipation
method that achieves high prediction accuracy even in the presence of a very
small percentage of a video sequence. To this end, we develop a multi-stage
LSTM architecture that leverages context-aware and action-aware features, and
introduce a novel loss function that encourages the model to predict the
correct class as early as possible. Our experiments on standard benchmark
datasets evidence the benefits of our approach; We outperform the
state-of-the-art action anticipation methods for early prediction by a relative
increase in accuracy of 22.0% on JHMDB-21, 14.0% on UT-Interaction and 49.9% on
UCF-101.Comment: 13 Pages, 7 Figures, 11 Tables. Accepted in ICCV 2017. arXiv admin
