Diversifying Music Recommendations

TLDR
A submodular approach incorporates item relevance score within its optimization function, and produces a relevant and uniformly diverse set of recommendations to diversify Amazon Music recommendations.
Abstract
We compare submodular and Jaccard methods to diversify Amazon Music recommendations. Submodularity significantly improves recommendation quality and user engagement. Unlike the Jaccard method, our submodular approach incorporates item relevance score within its optimization function, and produces a relevant and uniformly diverse set.

Practical Diversified Recommendations on YouTube with Determinantal Point Processes

TL;DR: This work presents a statistical model of diversity based on determinantal point processes (DPPs), and empirical results show that this model, coupled with a re-ranking algorithm, yields substantial short- and long-term increases in user engagement.

Industry Report: Amazon.com Recommendations: Item-to-Item Collaborative Filtering.

TL;DR: This work compares three common approaches to solving the recommendation problem: traditional collaborative filtering, cluster models, and search-based methods, and their algorithm, which is called item-to-item collaborative filtering.

Amazon.com recommendations: item-to-item collaborative filtering

TL;DR: Item-to-item collaborative filtering (ITF) as mentioned in this paper is a popular recommendation algorithm for e-commerce Web sites that scales independently of the number of customers and number of items in the product catalog.

An analysis of approximations for maximizing submodular set functions--I

TL;DR: It is shown that a “greedy” heuristic always produces a solution whose value is at least 1 −[(K − 1/K]K times the optimal value, which can be achieved for eachK and has a limiting value of (e − 1)/e, where e is the base of the natural logarithm.

An analysis of approximations for maximizing submodular set functions II

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered the problem of finding a maximum weight independent set in a matroid, where the elements of the matroid are colored and the items of the independent set can have no more than K colors.
