TLDR
This paper details a deep candidate generation model and then describes a separate deep ranking model and provides practical lessons and insights derived from designing, iterating and maintaining a massive recommendation system with enormous user-facing impact.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.read more

Research on BP Neural Network Recommendation Model Fusing User Reviews and Ratings
Abstract: Sparsity of rating data is a severe problem to be solved in modern recommendation researches. The fusion recommendation method is an effective solution for the problem. The method combines rating data and other types of user feedback data, such as reviews and image, to improve performance of the traditional recommendation algorithms. Some researchers have proposed fusion recommendation algorithms based on BP (Back Propagation) neural network and achieved better results. However, some existing fusion recommendation algorithms based on BP neural network still have some shortcomings. They rely on the assistance of the traditional recommendation algorithms. Moreover, the high complexity of the fusion processes of these algorithms possibly has negative impacts on the fusion effects. In this paper, we modify the fusion recommendation algorithm and propose the NNFR (neural networks fusion recommendation) model. This model improves the structure of BP neural network by specially designing the structure of network layers. User reviews and ratings can be processed in two separate sub-networks respectively and further fused in the fusion layer. The fusion features of user reviews and ratings are directly applied to perform recommendation, in order to avoid the assistance of the traditional recommendation algorithms and improve the fusing efficiency and quality. Experimental results indicate that the outstanding performance of NNFR model than comparative recommendation algorithms on rating predictions and top-k recommendations. Moreover, NNFR model can still produce high-quality recommendation results in the scenarios of sparse data.

Recommendation System with Reasoning Path Based on DQN and Knowledge Graph
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used reinforcement learning to recommend items to target users and added explanations for recommended items to give a better user experience, and the explanation is realized by knowledge graph, which can decide the proper recommendation items and find the reasoning paths from target users to recommended items.

Quantifying Long Range Dependence in Language and User Behavior to improve RNNs
TL;DR: This work proposes a principled estimation procedure of LRD in sequential datasets based on established LRD theory for real-valued time series and applies it to sequences of symbols with million-item-scale dictionaries and shows that measuring LRD better informs modeling decisions in particular for RNNs whose ability to capture LRD is still an active area of research.
