ABSTRACT
Recently a ranking view of collaborative recommendation has received much attention in recommendation systems. Most of existing ranking approaches are based on pairwise assumption, i.e., everything that has not been selected is of less interest for a user. However it is usually not proper in many cases. To alleviate the limitation of this assumption, in this work, we present a unified framework, named Personalized Semantic Ranking (PSR). PSR models the personalized ranking and the user-generated content (UGC) simultaneously, and the semantic information extracted from UGC can make a remedy for the pairwise assumption. Moreover, utilizing the semantic information, PSR can capture the more subtle information of the user-item interaction and alleviate the overfitting problem caused by insufficient ratings. The learned topics in PSR can also serve as proper explanations for recommendation. Experimental results show that the proposed PSR yields significant improvements over the competitive compared methods on two typical datasets.

Personalized re-ranking for recommendation
RecSys '19: Proceedings of the 13th ACM Conference on Recommender SystemsRanking is a core task in recommender systems, which aims at providing an ordered list of items to users. Typically, a ranking function is learned from the labeled dataset to optimize the global performance, which produces a ranking score for each ...
Typicality-Based Collaborative Filtering Recommendation
Collaborative filtering (CF) is an important and popular technology for recommender systems. However, current CF methods suffer from such problems as data sparsity, recommendation inaccuracy, and big-error in predictions. In this paper, we borrow ideas ...
Generalized Collaborative Personalized Ranking for Recommendation
Web and Big DataAbstractData sparsity is a common problem in collaborative ranking for personalized recommendation with implicit feedback. Several previous work tried to ‘borrow’ feedback information from users’ neighborhood as their prior preferences to alleviate this ...
