  • 共享用户和物品嵌入,统一用户-物品与物品-物品推荐框架
  • 在多个数据集上表现接近顶尖模型,且对不同场景均稳定
  • 无需特定微调,可直接复用基础模型超参数,易部署

近年来,神经网络等复杂模型在推荐系统中占据主导地位,常刷新性能基准。然而,获奖研究显示,传统矩阵分解方法仍具竞争力,具备结构简单、计算开销小的优势。为结合多种方法优点,混合模型日益普及。本文提出一种新型集成方法,通过加权相似性框架统一用户-物品与物品-物品推荐,实现top-N推荐。该方法采用共享用户和物品嵌入同时支持两种推荐策略,简化架构并提升计算效率。在多个数据集上的大量实验表明,本方法性能具有竞争力,且在偏向用户-物品或物品-物品推荐的不同场景下均表现稳健。此外,由于无需嵌入特异性微调,模型可无缝复用基础算法的超参数,不损失性能。这使得方法兼具高效性与易实现性。开源代码已发布于 https://github.com/UFSCar-LaSID/weighted-sims-recommender。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

In recent years, neural networks and other complex models have dominated recommender systems, often setting new benchmarks for state-of-the-art performance. Yet, despite these advancements, award-winning research has demonstrated that traditional matrix factorization methods can remain competitive, offering simplicity and reduced computational overhead. Hybrid models, which combine matrix factorization with newer techniques, are increasingly employed to harness the strengths of multiple approaches. This paper proposes a novel ensemble method that unifies user-item and item-item recommendations through a weighted similarity framework to deliver top-N recommendations. Our approach is distinctive in its use of shared user and item embeddings for both recommendation strategies, simplifying the architecture and enhancing computational efficiency. Extensive experiments across multiple datasets show that our method achieves competitive performance and is robust in varying scenarios that favor either user-item or item-item recommendations. Additionally, by eliminating the need for embedding-specific fine-tuning, our model allows for the seamless reuse of hyperparameters from the base algorithm without sacrificing performance. This results in a method that is both efficient and easy to implement. Our open-source implementation is available at https://github.com/UFSCar-LaSID/weighted-sims-recommender.
