Abstract
YouTube represents one of the largest scale and most sophisticated industrial recommendation systems in existence. In this paper, we describe the system at a high level and focus on the dramatic performance improvements brought by deep learning. The paper is split according to the classic two-stage information retrieval dichotomy: first, we detail a deep candidate generation model and then describe a separate deep ranking model. We also provide practical lessons and insights derived from designing, iterating and maintaining a massive recommendation system with enormous user-facing impact.

Learning to Index for Nearest Neighbor Search

TL;DR: This study presents a novel ranking model based on learning neighborhood relationships embedded in the index space that can replace the conventional distance-based ranking for finding candidate clusters and the predicted probability can be used to determine the data quantity to be retrieved from the candidate cluster.

Distributed Representations of Words and Phrases and their Compositionality

TL;DR: In this paper, the Skip-gram model is used to learn high-quality distributed vector representations that capture a large number of precise syntactic and semantic word relationships and improve both the quality of the vectors and the training speed.
