With the advent of deep learning, neural network-based recommendation models have emerged as an important tool for tackling personalization and recommendation tasks. These networks differ significantly from other deep learning networks due to their need to handle categorical features and are not well studied or understood. In this paper, we develop a state-of-the-art deep learning recommendation model (DLRM) and provide its implementation in both PyTorch and Caffe2 frameworks. In addition, we design a specialized parallelization scheme utilizing model parallelism on the embedding tables to mitigate memory constraints while exploiting data parallelism to scale-out compute from the fully-connected layers. We compare DLRM against existing recommendation models and characterize its performance on the Big Basin AI platform, demonstrating its usefulness as a benchmark for future algorithmic experimentation and system co-design.
In this paper we develop a novel recommendation model that explicitly incorporates time information. The model relies on an embedding layer and TSL attention-like mechanism with inner products in different vector spaces, that can be thought of as a modification of multi-headed attention. This mechanism allows the model to efficiently treat sequences of user behavior of different length. We study the properties of our state-of-the-art model on statistically designed data set. Also, we show that it outperforms more complex models with longer sequence length on the Taobao User Behavior dataset.
Interactive recommendation aims to learn from dynamic interactions between items and users to achieve responsiveness and accuracy. Reinforcement learning is inherently advantageous for coping with dynamic environments and thus has attracted increasing attention in interactive recommendation research. Inspired by knowledge-aware recommendation, we proposed Knowledge-Guided deep Reinforcement learning (KGRL) to harness the advantages of both reinforcement learning and knowledge graphs for interactive recommendation. This model is implemented upon the actor-critic network framework. It maintains a local knowledge network to guide decision-making and employs the attention mechanism to capture long-term semantics between items. We have conducted comprehensive experiments in a simulated online environment with six public real-world datasets and demonstrated the superiority of our model over several state-of-the-art methods.
Recently deep learning based recommendation systems have been actively explored to solve the cold-start problem using a hybrid approach. However, the majority of previous studies proposed a hybrid model where collaborative filtering and content-based filtering modules are independently trained. The end-to-end approach that takes different modality data as input and jointly trains the model can provide better optimization but it has not been fully explored yet. In this work, we propose deep content-user embedding model, a simple and intuitive architecture that combines the user-item interaction and music audio content. We evaluate the model on music recommendation and music auto-tagging tasks. The results show that the proposed model significantly outperforms the previous work. We also discuss various directions to improve the proposed model further.
In the field of sequential recommendation, deep learning (DL)-based methods have received a lot of attention in the past few years and surpassed traditional models such as Markov chain-based and factorization-based ones. However, there is little systematic study on DL-based methods, especially regarding to how to design an effective DL model for sequential recommendation. In this view, this survey focuses on DL-based sequential recommender systems by taking the aforementioned issues into consideration. Specifically,we illustrate the concept of sequential recommendation, propose a categorization of existing algorithms in terms of three types of behavioral sequence, summarize the key factors affecting the performance of DL-based models, and conduct corresponding evaluations to demonstrate the effects of these factors. We conclude this survey by systematically outlining future directions and challenges in this field.
Machine learning is completely changing the trends in the fashion industry. From big to small every brand is using machine learning techniques in order to improve their revenue, increase customers and stay ahead of the trend. People are into fashion and they want to know what looks best and how they can improve their style and elevate their personality. Using Deep learning technology and infusing it with Computer Vision techniques one can do so by utilizing Brain-inspired Deep Networks, and engaging into Neuroaesthetics, working with GANs and Training them, playing around with Unstructured Data,and infusing the transformer architecture are just some highlights which can be touched with the Fashion domain. Its all about designing a system that can tell us information regarding the fashion aspect that can come in handy with the ever growing demand. Personalization is a big factor that impacts the spending choices of customers.The survey also shows remarkable approaches that encroach the subject of achieving that by divulging deep into how visual data can be interpreted and leveraged into different models and approaches. Aesthetics play a vital role in clothing recommendation as users decision depends largely on whether the clothing is in line with their aesthetics, however the conventional image features cannot portray this directly. For that the survey also highlights remarkable models like tensor factorization model, conditional random field model among others to cater the need to acknowledge aesthetics as an important factor in Apparel recommendation.These AI inspired deep models can pinpoint exactly which certain style resonates best with their customers and they can have an understanding of how the new designs will set in with the community. With AI and machine learning your businesses can stay ahead of the fashion trends.
