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.

ARCHANGEL: Tamper-proofing Video Archives using Temporal Content Hashes on the Blockchain
We present ARCHANGEL; a novel distributed ledger based system for assuring
the long-term integrity of digital video archives. First, we describe a novel
deep network architecture for computing compact temporal content hashes (TCHs)
from audio-visual streams with durations of minutes or hours. Our TCHs are
sensitive to accidental or malicious content modification (tampering) but
invariant to the codec used to encode the video. This is necessary due to the
curatorial requirement for archives to format shift video over time to ensure
future accessibility. Second, we describe how the TCHs (and the models used to
derive them) are secured via a proof-of-authority blockchain distributed across
multiple independent archives. We report on the efficacy of ARCHANGEL within
the context of a trial deployment in which the national government archives of
the United Kingdom, Estonia and Norway participated.Comment: Accepted to CVPR Blockchain Workshop 201
