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.

Heterogeneous Hierarchical Feature Aggregation Network for Personalized Micro-Video Recommendation

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a novel Heterogeneous Hierarchical Feature Aggregation Network (HHFAN) for personalized micro-video recommendation, which explores the highly complicated relationship information among users, micro-videos and related multi-modal information from a modality-aware HIG.

Batch Normalization: Accelerating Deep Network Training by Reducing Internal Covariate Shift

TL;DR: Batch Normalization as mentioned in this paper normalizes layer inputs for each training mini-batch to reduce the internal covariate shift in deep neural networks, and achieves state-of-the-art performance on ImageNet.

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.
