Abstract
With the advancement of deep-learning-based approaches, complex problems under Artificial Intelligence can now be addressed in a comparatively easier way. One such application domain is Recommendation Systems. Recommendation systems are powerful tools in this age of data explosion for providing meaningful insights from data. Collaborative Filtering is one of the popular approaches for building recommendation systems and extensive literary works suggest that it is very effective. In recent years deep-learning-based models have been bounteously applied for the development of recommendation systems using collaborative filtering. Autoencoders are a deep-learning based neural architecture which can be used for implementing collaborative filtering. This paper presents a survey of different autoencoder based models which employ collaborative filtering methodology for making recommendation systems. The paper initially provides an understanding of models and thereafter summarizes various works reported in the literature in the light of the methodology used, taxonomy, datasets used for experimentation, limitations and results reported.
