ABSTRACT
Recommendation systems play a vital role in online information systems and are a major monetization tool for user-oriented platforms. In recent years, there has been increasing research interest in recommendation technologies in both industry and academia, and significant progress has been made owing to the fast development of neural network techniques. In this talk, I will summarize our several contributions in developing neural recommender models published in SIGIR, WWW and IJCAI recently. First, I will introduce the neural collaborative filtering (CF) methods, including neural matrix factorization, attentive CF, and deep convolutional CF. Second, I will present the generic feature-based methods, including neural factorization machine (FM), attentional FM, and tree-enhanced embedding model.
