Recently, a new form of online shopping becomes more and more popular, which combines live streaming with E-Commerce activity. The streamers introduce products and interact with their audiences, and hence greatly improve the performance of selling products. Despite of the successful applications in industries, the live stream E-commerce has not been well studied in the data science community. To fill this gap, we investigate this brand-new scenario and collect a real-world Live Stream E-Commerce (LSEC) dataset. Different from conventional E-commerce activities, the streamers play a pivotal role in the LSEC events. Hence, the key is to make full use of rich interaction information among streamers, users, and products. We first conduct data analysis on the tripartite interaction data and quantify the streamers influence on users purchase behavior. Based on the analysis results, we model the tripartite information as a heterogeneous graph, which can be decomposed to multiple bipartite graphs in order to better capture the influence. We propose a novel Live Stream E-Commerce Graph Neural Network framework (LSEC-GNN) to learn the node representations of each bipartite graph, and further design a multi-task learning approach to improve product recommendation. Extensive experiments on two real-world datasets with different scales show that our method can significantly outperform various baseline approaches.

Building a recommendation system that serves billions of users on daily basis is a challenging problem, as the system needs to make astronomical number of predictions per second based on real-time user behaviors with O(1) time complexity. Such kind o f large scale recommendation systems usually rely heavily on pre-built index of products to speedup the recommendation service so that online user waiting time is un-noticeable. One important indexing structure is the product-product index, where one can retrieval a list of ranked products given a seed product. The index can be viewed as a weighted product-product graph. In this paper, we present our novel technologies to efficiently build such kind of indexed product graphs. In particular, we propose the Swing algorithm to capture the substitute relationships between products, which can utilize the substructures of user-item click bi-partitive graph. Then we propose the Surprise algorithm for the modeling of complementary product relationships, which utilizes product category information and solves the sparsity problem of user co-purchasing graph via clustering technique. Base on these two approaches, we can build the basis product graph for recommendation in Taobao. The approaches are evaluated comprehensively with both offline and online experiments, and the results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the work.

Recommender systems play a vital role in modern online services, such as Amazon and Taobao. Traditional personalized methods, which focus on user-item (UI) relations, have been widely applied in industrial settings, owing to their efficiency and effe ctiveness. Despite their success, we argue that these approaches ignore local information hidden in similar users. To tackle this problem, user-based methods exploit similar user relations to make recommendations in a local perspective. Nevertheless, traditional user-based methods, like userKNN and matrix factorization, are intractable to be deployed in the real-time applications since such transductive models have to be recomputed or retrained with any new interaction. To overcome this challenge, we propose a framework called self-complementary collaborative filtering~(SCCF) which can make recommendations with both global and local information in real time. On the one hand, it utilizes UI relations and user neighborhood to capture both global and local information. On the other hand, it can identify similar users for each user in real time by inferring user representations on the fly with an inductive model. The proposed framework can be seamlessly incorporated into existing inductive UI approach and benefit from user neighborhood with little additional computation. It is also the first attempt to apply user-based methods in real-time settings. The effectiveness and efficiency of SCCF are demonstrated through extensive offline experiments on four public datasets, as well as a large scale online A/B test in Taobao.
Live streaming is becoming an increasingly popular trend of sales in E-commerce. The core of live-streaming sales is to encourage customers to purchase in an online broadcasting room. To enable customers to better understand a product without jumping out, we propose AliMe MKG, a multi-modal knowledge graph that aims at providing a cognitive profile for products, through which customers are able to seek information about and understand a product. Based on the MKG, we build an online live assistant that highlights product search, product exhibition and question answering, allowing customers to skim over item list, view item details, and ask item-related questions. Our system has been launched online in the Taobao app, and currently serves hundreds of thousands of customers per day.
Recently, conversational recommender system (CRS) has become an emerging and practical research topic. Most of the existing CRS methods focus on learning effective preference representations for users from conversation data alone. While, we take a ne w perspective to leverage historical interaction data for improving CRS. For this purpose, we propose a novel pre-training approach to integrating both item-based preference sequence (from historical interaction data) and attribute-based preference sequence (from conversation data) via pre-training methods. We carefully design two pre-training tasks to enhance information fusion between item- and attribute-based preference. To improve the learning performance, we further develop an effective negative sample generator which can produce high-quality negative samples. Experiment results on two real-world datasets have demonstrated the effectiveness of our approach for improving CRS.

Nowadays, E-commerce is increasingly integrated into our daily lives. Meanwhile, shopping process has also changed incrementally from one behavior (purchase) to multiple behaviors (such as view, carting and purchase). Therefore, utilizing interaction data of auxiliary behavior data draws a lot of attention in the E-commerce recommender systems. However, all existing models ignore two kinds of intrinsic heterogeneity which are helpful to capture the difference of user preferences and the difference of item attributes. First (intra-heterogeneity), each user has multiple social identities with otherness, and these different identities can result in quite different interaction preferences. Second (inter-heterogeneity), each item can transfer an item-specific percentage of score from low-level behavior to high-level behavior for the gradual relationship among multiple behaviors. Thus, the lack of consideration of these heterogeneities damages recommendation rank performance. To model the above heterogeneities, we propose a novel method named intra- and inter-heterogeneity recommendation model (ARGO). Specifically, we embed each user into multiple vectors representing the users identities, and the maximum of identity scores indicates the interaction preference. Besides, we regard the item-specific transition percentage as trainable transition probability between different behaviors. Extensive experiments on two real-world datasets show that ARGO performs much better than the state-of-the-art in multi-behavior scenarios.
