Knowledge Graph Embeddings with node2vec for Item Recommendation
In the past years, knowledge graphs have proven to be beneficial
for recommender systems, efficiently addressing paramount issues
such as new items and data sparsity. Graph embeddings algorithms have
shown to be able to automatically learn high quality feature vectors
from graph structures, enabling vector-based measures of node relatedness.
In this paper, we show how node2vec can be used to generate item
recommendations by learning knowledge graph embeddings. We apply
node2vec on a knowledge graph built from the MovieLens 1M dataset
and DBpedia and use the node relatedness to generate item recommendations.
The results show that node2vec consistently outperforms a set
of collaborative filtering baselines on an array of relevant metric
Representation Learning for Attributed Multiplex Heterogeneous Network
Network embedding (or graph embedding) has been widely used in many
real-world applications. However, existing methods mainly focus on networks
with single-typed nodes/edges and cannot scale well to handle large networks.
Many real-world networks consist of billions of nodes and edges of multiple
types, and each node is associated with different attributes. In this paper, we
formalize the problem of embedding learning for the Attributed Multiplex
Heterogeneous Network and propose a unified framework to address this problem.
The framework supports both transductive and inductive learning. We also give
the theoretical analysis of the proposed framework, showing its connection with
previous works and proving its better expressiveness. We conduct systematical
evaluations for the proposed framework on four different genres of challenging
datasets: Amazon, YouTube, Twitter, and Alibaba. Experimental results
demonstrate that with the learned embeddings from the proposed framework, we
can achieve statistically significant improvements (e.g., 5.99-28.23% lift by
F1 scores; p<<0.01, t-test) over previous state-of-the-art methods for link
prediction. The framework has also been successfully deployed on the
recommendation system of a worldwide leading e-commerce company, Alibaba Group.
Results of the offline A/B tests on product recommendation further confirm the
effectiveness and efficiency of the framework in practice.Comment: Accepted to KDD 2019. Website: https://sites.google.com/view/gatn
Knowledge-aware Complementary Product Representation Learning
Learning product representations that reflect complementary relationship
plays a central role in e-commerce recommender system. In the absence of the
product relationships graph, which existing methods rely on, there is a need to
detect the complementary relationships directly from noisy and sparse customer
purchase activities. Furthermore, unlike simple relationships such as
similarity, complementariness is asymmetric and non-transitive. Standard usage
of representation learning emphasizes on only one set of embedding, which is
problematic for modelling such properties of complementariness. We propose
using knowledge-aware learning with dual product embedding to solve the above
challenges. We encode contextual knowledge into product representation by
multi-task learning, to alleviate the sparsity issue. By explicitly modelling
with user bias terms, we separate the noise of customer-specific preferences
from the complementariness. Furthermore, we adopt the dual embedding framework
to capture the intrinsic properties of complementariness and provide geometric
interpretation motivated by the classic separating hyperplane theory. Finally,
we propose a Bayesian network structure that unifies all the components, which
also concludes several popular models as special cases. The proposed method
compares favourably to state-of-art methods, in downstream classification and
recommendation tasks. We also develop an implementation that scales efficiently
to a dataset with millions of items and customers
