Cross Domain Recommendation Using Vector Space Transfer Learning
نویسندگان
چکیده
The cold start problem, frequent with recommender systems, addresses the issue in cases where we don’t know enough about our users (e.g., the user hasn’t rated anything yet, or there are no user activities) in that specific domain. In our paper we present a simple and robust transfer learning approach where we model users’ behavior in a source domain, transferring that knowledge to a new, target domain. First, we vectorize the items by using word2vec for each dataset independently. Second, we calculate the transformation matrix that connects the source dataset to the target dataset by using their common users.

Multi Cross Domain Recommendation Using Item Embedding and Canonical Correlation Analysis
In a multi-service environment it is crucial to be able to leverage user behavior from one or more domains to create personalized recommendations in the other domain. In our paper, we present a robust transfer learning approach that successfully captures user behavior across multiple domains. First, we vectorize users and items in each domain independently. Second, using a handful of common use...
متن کاملDivide and Transfer: Understanding Latent Factors for Recommendation Tasks
Traditionally, latent factor models have been the most successful techniques to build recommendation systems. While the key is to capture the user interests effectively, most research is focused on learning latent factors under cold-start and data sparsity situations. Our work brings a complementary approach to the previous studies showing that understanding the semantic aspects of latent facto...
متن کاملCross-Domain Kernel Induction for Transfer Learning
The key question in transfer learning (TL) research is how to make model induction transferable across different domains. Common methods so far require source and target domains to have a shared/homogeneous feature space, or the projection of features from heterogeneous domains onto a shared space. This paper proposes a novel framework, which does not require a shared feature space but instead ...
متن کاملCross-domain Novelty Seeking Trait Mining for Sequential Recommendation
Transfer learning has attracted a large amount of interest and research in last decades, and some efforts have been made to build more precise recommendation systems. Most previous transfer recommendation systems assume that the target domain shares the same/similar rating patterns with the auxiliary source domain, which is used to improve the recommendation performance. However, to the best of...
متن کاملCross-Domain Collaborative Filtering with Review Text
Most existing cross-domain recommendation algorithms focus on modeling ratings, while ignoring review texts. The review text, however, contains rich information, which can be utilized to alleviate data sparsity limitations, and interpret transfer patterns. In this paper, we investigate how to utilize the review text to improve cross-domain collaborative filtering models. The challenge lies in t...
