Factorization Machines (FMs) are effective in incorporating side information to overcome the cold-start and data sparsity problems in recommender systems. Traditional FMs adopt the inner product to model the second-order interactions between different attributes, which are represented via feature vectors. The problem is that the inner product violates the triangle inequality property of feature vectors. As a result, it cannot well capture fine-grained attribute interactions, resulting in sub-optimal performance. Recently, the Euclidean distance is exploited in FMs to replace the inner product and has delivered better performance. However, previous FM methods including the ones equipped with the Euclidean distance all focus on the attribute-level interaction modeling, ignoring the critical intrinsic feature correlations inside attributes. Thereby, they fail to model the complex and rich interactions exhibited in the real-world data. To tackle this problem, in this paper, we propose a FM framework equipped with generalized metric learning techniques to better capture these feature correlations. In particular, based on this framework, we present a Mahalanobis distance and a deep neural network (DNN) methods, which can effectively model the linear and non-linear correlations between features, respectively. Besides, we design an efficient approach for simplifying the model functions. Experiments on several benchmark datasets demonstrate that our proposed framework outperforms several state-of-the-art baselines by a large margin. Moreover, we collect a new large-scale dataset on second-hand trading to justify the effectiveness of our method over cold-start and data sparsity problems in recommender systems.

In this work, we propose FM-Pair, an adaptation of Factorization Machines with a pairwise loss function, making them effective for datasets with implicit feedback. The optimization model in FM-Pair is based on the BPR (Bayesian Personalized Ranking)
criterion, which is a well-established pairwise optimization model. FM-Pair retains the advantages of FMs on generality, expressiveness and performance and yet it can be used for datasets with implicit feedback. We also propose how to apply FM-Pair effectively on two collaborative filtering problems, namely, context-aware recommendation and cross-domain collaborative filtering. By performing experiments on different datasets with explicit or implicit feedback we empirically show that in most of the tested datasets, FM-Pair beats state-of-the-art learning-to-rank methods such as BPR-MF (BPR with Matrix Factorization model). We also show that FM-Pair is significantly more effective for ranking, compared to the standard FMs model. Moreover, we show that FM-Pair can utilize context or cross-domain information effectively as the accuracy of recommendations would always improve with the right auxiliary features. Finally we show that FM-Pair has a linear time complexity and scales linearly by exploiting additional features.
Interpretability of learning-to-rank models is a crucial yet relatively under-examined research area. Recent progress on interpretable ranking models largely focuses on generating post-hoc explanations for existing black-box ranking models, whereas t
he alternative option of building an intrinsically interpretable ranking model with transparent and self-explainable structure remains unexplored. Developing fully-understandable ranking models is necessary in some scenarios (e.g., due to legal or policy constraints) where post-hoc methods cannot provide sufficiently accurate explanations. In this paper, we lay the groundwork for intrinsically interpretable learning-to-rank by introducing generalized additive models (GAMs) into ranking tasks. Generalized additive models (GAMs) are intrinsically interpretable machine learning models and have been extensively studied on regression and classification tasks. We study how to extend GAMs into ranking models which can handle both item-level and list-level features and propose a novel formulation of ranking GAMs. To instantiate ranking GAMs, we employ neural networks instead of traditional splines or regression trees. We also show that our neural ranking GAMs can be distilled into a set of simple and compact piece-wise linear functions that are much more efficient to evaluate with little accuracy loss. We conduct experiments on three data sets and show that our proposed neural ranking GAMs can achieve significantly better performance than other traditional GAM baselines while maintaining similar interpretability.
With the rapid growing of remotely sensed imagery data, there is a high demand for effective and efficient image retrieval tools to manage and exploit such data. In this letter, we present a novel content-based remote sensing image retrieval method b
ased on Triplet deep metric learning convolutional neural network (CNN). By constructing a Triplet network with metric learning objective function, we extract the representative features of the images in a semantic space in which images from the same class are close to each other while those from different classes are far apart. In such a semantic space, simple metric measures such as Euclidean distance can be used directly to compare the similarity of images and effectively retrieve images of the same class. We also investigate a supervised and an unsupervised learning methods for reducing the dimensionality of the learned semantic features. We present comprehensive experimental results on two publicly available remote sensing image retrieval datasets and show that our method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art.
Restricted Boltzmann machines (RBMs) are energy-based neural-networks which are commonly used as the building blocks for deep architectures neural architectures. In this work, we derive a deterministic framework for the training, evaluation, and use
of RBMs based upon the Thouless-Anderson-Palmer (TAP) mean-field approximation of widely-connected systems with weak interactions coming from spin-glass theory. While the TAP approach has been extensively studied for fully-visible binary spin systems, our construction is generalized to latent-variable models, as well as to arbitrarily distributed real-valued spin systems with bounded support. In our numerical experiments, we demonstrate the effective deterministic training of our proposed models and are able to show interesting features of unsupervised learning which could not be directly observed with sampling. Additionally, we demonstrate how to utilize our TAP-based framework for leveraging trained RBMs as joint priors in denoising problems.
Deep Learning and factorization-based collaborative filtering recommendation models have undoubtedly dominated the scene of recommender systems in recent years. However, despite their outstanding performance, these methods require a training time pro
portional to the size of the embeddings and it further increases when also side information is considered for the computation of the recommendation list. In fact, in these cases we have that with a large number of high-quality features, the resulting models are more complex and difficult to train. This paper addresses this problem by presenting KGFlex: a sparse factorization approach that grants an even greater degree of expressiveness. To achieve this result, KGFlex analyzes the historical data to understand the dimensions the user decisions depend on (e.g., movie direction, musical genre, nationality of book writer). KGFlex represents each item feature as an embedding and it models user-item interactions as a factorized entropy-driven combination of the item attributes relevant to the user. KGFlex facilitates the training process by letting users update only those relevant features on which they base their decisions. In other words, the user-item prediction is mediated by the users personal view that considers only relevant features. An extensive experimental evaluation shows the approachs effectiveness, considering the recommendation results accuracy, diversity, and induced bias. The public implementation of KGFlex is available at https://split.to/kgflex.
