Hybrid Collaborative Filtering with Autoencoders

2016-03-02 · Florian Strub, Jeremie Mary, Romaric Gaudel

Collaborative Filtering aims at exploiting the feedback of users to provide personalised recommendations. Such algorithms look for latent variables in a large sparse matrix of ratings. They can be enhanced by adding side information to tackle the well-known cold start problem. While Neu-ral Networks have tremendous success in image and speech recognition, they have received less attention in Collaborative Filtering. This is all the more surprising that Neural Networks are able to discover latent variables in large and heterogeneous datasets. In this paper, we introduce a Collaborative Filtering Neural network architecture aka CFN which computes a non-linear Matrix Factorization from sparse rating inputs and side information. We show experimentally on the MovieLens and Douban dataset that CFN outper-forms the state of the art and benefits from side information. We provide an implementation of the algorithm as a reusable plugin for Torch, a popular Neural Network framework.

AutoRec: Autoencoders Meet Collaborative Filtering

2015-05-18 · Proceedings of the 24th International Conference on World Wide Web 2015 5 · Suvash Sedhain, Aditya Krishna Menon, Scott Sanner, Lexing Xie

This paper proposes AutoRec, a novel autoencoder framework for collaborative filtering (CF). Empirically, AutoRec’s compact and efficiently trainable model outperforms stateof-the-art CF techniques (biased matrix factori…

A Hybrid Latent Variable Neural Network Model for Item Recommendation

2014-06-09 · Michael R. Smith, Tony Martinez, Michael Gashler

Collaborative filtering is used to recommend items to a user without requiring a knowledge of the item itself and tends to outperform other techniques. However, collaborative filtering suffers from the cold-start problem…
