CoupleNet: Paying Attention to Couples with Coupled Attention for Relationship Recommendation
Dating and romantic relationships not only play a huge role in our personal
lives but also collectively influence and shape society. Today, many romantic
partnerships originate from the Internet, signifying the importance of
technology and the web in modern dating. In this paper, we present a text-based
computational approach for estimating the relationship compatibility of two
users on social media. Unlike many previous works that propose reciprocal
recommender systems for online dating websites, we devise a distant supervision
heuristic to obtain real world couples from social platforms such as Twitter.
Our approach, the CoupleNet is an end-to-end deep learning based estimator that
analyzes the social profiles of two users and subsequently performs a
similarity match between the users. Intuitively, our approach performs both
user profiling and match-making within a unified end-to-end framework.
CoupleNet utilizes hierarchical recurrent neural models for learning
representations of user profiles and subsequently coupled attention mechanisms
to fuse information aggregated from two users. To the best of our knowledge,
our approach is the first data-driven deep learning approach for our novel
relationship recommendation problem. We benchmark our CoupleNet against several
machine learning and deep learning baselines. Experimental results show that
our approach outperforms all approaches significantly in terms of precision.
Qualitative analysis shows that our model is capable of also producing
explainable results to users.Comment: Accepted at ICWSM 201
Toward Point-of-Interest Recommendation Systems: A Critical Review on Deep-Learning Approaches
In recent years, location-based social networks (LBSNs) that allow members to share their location and provide related services, and point-of-interest (POIs) recommendations which suggest attractive places to visit, have become noteworthy and useful for users, research areas, industries, and advertising companies. The POI recommendation system combines different information sources and creates numerous research challenges and questions. New research in this field utilizes deep-learning techniques as a solution to the issues because it has the ability to represent the nonlinear relationship between users and items more effectively than other methods. Despite all the obvious improvements that have been made recently, this field still does not have an updated and integrated view of the types of methods, their limitations, features, and future prospects. This paper provides a systematic review focusing on recent research on this topic. First, this approach prepares an overall view of the types of recommendation methods, their challenges, and the various influencing factors that can improve model performance in POI recommendations, then it reviews the traditional machine-learning methods and deep-learning techniques employed in the POI recommendation and analyzes their strengths and weaknesses. The recently proposed models are categorized according to the method used, the dataset, and the evaluation metrics. It found that these articles give priority to accuracy in comparison with other dimensions of quality. Finally, this approach introduces the research trends and future orientations, and it realizes that POI recommender systems based on deep learning are a promising future work
