Offline Evaluation to Make Decisions About PlaylistRecommendation Algorithms
Alois Gruson,Praveen Chandar,Christophe Charbuillet,James McInerney,Samantha Hansen,Damien Tardieu,Ben Carterette +6 more
TL;DR: The results show that, contrary to much of the previous work on this topic, properly-conducted offline experiments do correlate well to A/B test results, and moreover that the authors can expect an offline evaluation to identify the best candidate systems for online testing with high probability.

The Engagement-Diversity Connection: Evidence from a Field Experiment on Spotify
TL;DR: Results from a randomized field experiment on Spotify testing the effect of personalized recommendations on consumption diversity provide evidence of an "engagement-diversity trade-off" when recommendations are optimized solely to drive consumption: while personalized recommendations increase user engagement, they also affect the diversity of consumed content.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Preference based evaluation measures for novelty and diversity
Praveen Chandar,Ben Carterette +1 more
TL;DR: An evaluation framework that not only can consider implicit factors but also handles differences in user preference due to varying underlying information need is proposed and its measures are validated by comparing it to existing measures.
