In this paper, we propose a spreading activation approach for collaborative filtering (SA-CF). By using the opinion spreading process, the similarity between any users can be obtained. The algorithm has remarkably higher accuracy than the standard collaborative filtering (CF) using Pearson correlation. Furthermore, we introduce a free parameter $beta$ to regulate the contributions of objects to user-user correlations. The numerical results indicate that decreasing the influence of popular objects can further improve the algorithmic accuracy and personality. We argue that a better algorithm should simultaneously require less computation and generate higher accuracy. Accordingly, we further propose an algorithm involving only the top-$N$ similar neighbors for each target user, which has both less computational complexity and higher algorithmic accuracy.

A key challenge of the collaborative filtering (CF) information filtering is how to obtain the reliable and accurate results with the help of peers recommendation. Since the similarities from small-degree users to large-degree users would be larger t han the ones opposite direction, the large-degree users selections are recommended extensively by the traditional second-order CF algorithms. By considering the users similarity direction and the second-order correlations to depress the influence of mainstream preferences, we present the directed second-order CF (HDCF) algorithm specifically to address the challenge of accuracy and diversity of the CF algorithm. The numerical results for two benchmark data sets, MovieLens and Netflix, show that the accuracy of the new algorithm outperforms the state-of-the-art CF algorithms. Comparing with the CF algorithm based on random-walks proposed in the Ref.7, the average ranking score could reach 0.0767 and 0.0402, which is enhanced by 27.3% and 19.1% for MovieLens and Netflix respectively. In addition, the diversity, precision and recall are also enhanced greatly. Without relying on any context-specific information, tuning the similarity direction of CF algorithms could obtain accurate and diverse recommendations. This work suggests that the user similarity direction is an important factor to improve the personalized recommendation performance.
This paper describes the solution method taken by LeBuSiShu team for track1 in ACM KDD CUP 2011 contest (resulting in the 5th place). We identified two main challenges: the unique item taxonomy characteristics as well as the large data set size.To ha ndle the item taxonomy, we present a novel method called Matrix Factorization Item Taxonomy Regularization (MFITR). MFITR obtained the 2nd best prediction result out of more then ten implemented algorithms. For rapidly computing multiple solutions of various algorithms, we have implemented an open source parallel collaborative filtering library on top of the GraphLab machine learning framework. We report some preliminary performance results obtained using the BlackLight supercomputer.
Due to the development of graph neural network models, like graph convolutional network (GCN), graph-based representation learning methods have made great progress in recommender systems. However, the data sparsity is still a challenging problem that graph-based methods are confronted with. Recent works try to solve this problem by utilizing the side information. In this paper, we introduce easily accessible textual information to alleviate the negative effects of data sparsity. Specifically, to incorporate with rich textual knowledge, we utilize a pre-trained context-awareness natural language processing model to initialize the embeddings of text nodes. By a GCN-based node information propagation on the constructed heterogeneous graph, the embeddings of users and items can finally be enriched by the textual knowledge. The matching function used by most graph-based representation learning methods is the inner product, this linear operation can not fit complex semantics well. We design a predictive network, which can combine the graph-based representation learning with the matching function learning, and demonstrate that this predictive architecture can gain significant improvements. Extensive experiments are conducted on three public datasets and the results verify the superior performance of our method over several baselines.
We focus on the problem of streaming recommender system and explore novel collaborative filtering algorithms to handle the data dynamicity and complexity in a streaming manner. Although deep neural networks have demonstrated the effectiveness of reco mmendation tasks, it is lack of explorations on integrating probabilistic models and deep architectures under streaming recommendation settings. Conjoining the complementary advantages of probabilistic models and deep neural networks could enhance both model effectiveness and the understanding of inference uncertainties. To bridge the gap, in this paper, we propose a Coupled Variational Recurrent Collaborative Filtering (CVRCF) framework based on the idea of Deep Bayesian Learning to handle the streaming recommendation problem. The framework jointly combines stochastic processes and deep factorization models under a Bayesian paradigm to model the generation and evolution of users preferences and items popularities. To ensure efficient optimization and streaming update, we further propose a sequential variational inference algorithm based on a cross variational recurrent neural network structure. Experimental results on three benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed framework performs favorably against the state-of-the-art methods in terms of both temporal dependency modeling and predictive accuracy. The learned latent variables also provide visualized interpretations for the evolution of temporal dynamics.
In this paper, we propose a novel method to compute the similarity between congeneric nodes in bipartite networks. Different from the standard Person correlation, we take into account the influence of nodes degree. Substituting this new definition of similarity for the standard Person correlation, we propose a modified collaborative filtering (MCF). Based on a benchmark database, we demonstrate the great improvement of algorithmic accuracy for both user-based MCF and object-based MCF.
