Learning over Knowledge-Base Embeddings for Recommendation
State-of-the-art recommendation algorithms -- especially the collaborative
filtering (CF) based approaches with shallow or deep models -- usually work
with various unstructured information sources for recommendation, such as
textual reviews, visual images, and various implicit or explicit feedbacks.
Though structured knowledge bases were considered in content-based approaches,
they have been largely neglected recently due to the availability of vast
amount of data, and the learning power of many complex models.
However, structured knowledge bases exhibit unique advantages in personalized
recommendation systems. When the explicit knowledge about users and items is
considered for recommendation, the system could provide highly customized
recommendations based on users' historical behaviors. A great challenge for
using knowledge bases for recommendation is how to integrated large-scale
structured and unstructured data, while taking advantage of collaborative
filtering for highly accurate performance. Recent achievements on knowledge
base embedding sheds light on this problem, which makes it possible to learn
user and item representations while preserving the structure of their
relationship with external knowledge. In this work, we propose to reason over
knowledge base embeddings for personalized recommendation. Specifically, we
propose a knowledge base representation learning approach to embed
heterogeneous entities for recommendation. Experimental results on real-world
dataset verified the superior performance of our approach compared with
state-of-the-art baselines
