Embedding based product recommendations have gained popularity in recent years due to its ability to easily integrate to large-scale systems and allowing nearest neighbor searches in real-time. The bulk of studies in this area has predominantly been focused on similar item recommendations. Research on complementary item recommendations, on the other hand, still remains considerably under-explored. We define similar items as items that are interchangeable in terms of their utility and complementary items as items that serve different purposes, yet are compatible when used with one another. In this paper, we apply a novel approach to finding complementary items by leveraging dual embedding representations for products. We demonstrate that the notion of relatedness discovered in NLP for skip-gram negative sampling (SGNS) models translates effectively to the concept of complementarity when training item representations using co-purchase data. Since sparsity of purchase data is a major challenge in real-world scenarios, we further augment the model using synthetic samples to extend coverage. This allows the model to provide complementary recommendations for items that do not share co-purchase data by leveraging other abundantly available data modalities such as images, text, clicks etc. We establish the effectiveness of our approach in improving both coverage and quality of recommendations on real world data for a major online retail company. We further show the importance of task specific hyperparameter tuning in training SGNS. Our model is effective yet simple to implement, making it a great candidate for generating complementary item recommendations at any e-commerce website.

推荐系统是机器学习系统的子类，它们采用复杂的信息过滤策略来减少搜索时间，并向任何特定用户建议最相关的项目。混合建议系统以不同的方式结合了多种建议策略，以从其互补的优势中受益。一些混合推荐系统已经结合了协作过滤和基于内容的方法来构建更强大的系统。在本文中，我们提出了一个混合推荐系统，该系统将基于最小二乘（ALS）的交替正方（ALS）的协作过滤与深度学习结合在一起，以增强建议性能，并克服与协作过滤方法相关的限制，尤其是关于其冷启动问题。本质上，我们使用ALS（协作过滤）的输出来影响深度神经网络（DNN）的建议，该建议结合了大数据处理框架中的特征，上下文，结构和顺序信息。我们已经进行了几项实验，以测试拟议混合体架构向潜在客户推荐智能手机的功效，并将其性能与其他开源推荐人进行比较。结果表明，所提出的系统的表现优于几个现有的混合推荐系统。

Humans inevitably develop a sense of the relationships between objects, some of which are based on their appearance. Some pairs of objects might be seen as being alternatives to each other (such as two pairs of jeans), while others may be seen as being complementary (such as a pair of jeans and a matching shirt). This information guides many of the choices that people make, from buying clothes to their interactions with each other. We seek here to model this human sense of the relationships between objects based on their appearance. Our approach is not based on fine-grained modeling of user annotations but rather on capturing the largest dataset possible and developing a scalable method for uncovering human notions of the visual relationships within. We cast this as a network inference problem defined on graphs of related images, and provide a large-scale dataset for the training and evaluation of the same. The system we develop is capable of recommending which clothes and accessories will go well together (and which will not), amongst a host of other applications.

神经网络嵌入的成功使人们对使用知识图进行各种机器学习和信息检索任务产生了重新兴趣。特别是，基于图形嵌入的当前建议方法已显示出最新的性能。这些方法通常编码潜在的评级模式和内容功能。与以前的工作不同，在本文中，我们建议利用从图表中提取的嵌入，这些嵌入结合了从评分中的信息和文本评论中表达的基于方面的意见。然后，我们根据亚马逊和Yelp评论在六个域上生成的图表调整和评估最新的图形嵌入技术，优于基线推荐器。我们的方法具有提供解释的优势，该解释利用了用户对推荐项目的基于方面的意见。此外，我们还提供了使用方面意见作为可视化仪表板中的解释的建议的适用性的示例，该说明允许获取有关从输入图的嵌入中获得的有关类似用户的最喜欢和最不喜欢的方面的信息。

Recent advancements in deep neural networks for graph-structured data have led to state-of-the-art performance on recommender system benchmarks. However, making these methods practical and scalable to web-scale recommendation tasks with billions of items and hundreds of millions of users remains a challenge.Here we describe a large-scale deep recommendation engine that we developed and deployed at Pinterest. We develop a dataefficient Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) algorithm PinSage, which combines efficient random walks and graph convolutions to generate embeddings of nodes (i.e., items) that incorporate both graph structure as well as node feature information. Compared to prior GCN approaches, we develop a novel method based on highly efficient random walks to structure the convolutions and design a novel training strategy that relies on harder-and-harder training examples to improve robustness and convergence of the model.We deploy PinSage at Pinterest and train it on 7.5 billion examples on a graph with 3 billion nodes representing pins and boards, and 18 billion edges. According to offline metrics, user studies and A/B tests, PinSage generates higher-quality recommendations than comparable deep learning and graph-based alternatives. To our knowledge, this is the largest application of deep graph embeddings to date and paves the way for a new generation of web-scale recommender systems based on graph convolutional architectures.

Complementary recommendation gains increasing attention in e-commerce since it expedites the process of finding frequently-bought-with products for users in their shopping journey. Therefore, learning the product representation that can reflect this complementary relationship plays a central role in modern recommender systems. In this work, we propose a logical reasoning network, LOGIREC, to effectively learn embeddings of products as well as various transformations (projection, intersection, negation) between them. LOGIREC is capable of capturing the asymmetric complementary relationship between products and seamlessly extending to high-order recommendations where more comprehensive and meaningful complementary relationship is learned for a query set of products. Finally, we further propose a hybrid network that is jointly optimized for learning a more generic product representation. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our LOGIREC on multiple public real-world datasets in terms of various ranking-based metrics under both low-order and high-order recommendation scenarios.

The fashion industry is one of the most active and competitive markets in the world, manufacturing millions of products and reaching large audiences every year. A plethora of business processes are involved in this large-scale industry, but due to the generally short life-cycle of clothing items, supply-chain management and retailing strategies are crucial for good market performance. Correctly understanding the wants and needs of clients, managing logistic issues and marketing the correct products are high-level problems with a lot of uncertainty associated to them given the number of influencing factors, but most importantly due to the unpredictability often associated with the future. It is therefore straightforward that forecasting methods, which generate predictions of the future, are indispensable in order to ameliorate all the various business processes that deal with the true purpose and meaning of fashion: having a lot of people wear a particular product or style, rendering these items, people and consequently brands fashionable. In this paper, we provide an overview of three concrete forecasting tasks that any fashion company can apply in order to improve their industrial and market impact. We underline advances and issues in all three tasks and argue about their importance and the impact they can have at an industrial level. Finally, we highlight issues and directions of future work, reflecting on how learning-based forecasting methods can further aid the fashion industry.

Any organization needs to improve their products, services, and processes. In this context, engaging with customers and understanding their journey is essential. Organizations have leveraged various techniques and technologies to support customer engagement, from call centres to chatbots and virtual agents. Recently, these systems have used Machine Learning (ML) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) to analyze large volumes of customer feedback and engagement data. The goal is to understand customers in context and provide meaningful answers across various channels. Despite multiple advances in Conversational Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Recommender Systems (RS), it is still challenging to understand the intent behind customer questions during the customer journey. To address this challenge, in this paper, we study and analyze the recent work in Conversational Recommender Systems (CRS) in general and, more specifically, in chatbot-based CRS. We introduce a pipeline to contextualize the input utterances in conversations. We then take the next step towards leveraging reverse feature engineering to link the contextualized input and learning model to support intent recognition. Since performance evaluation is achieved based on different ML models, we use transformer base models to evaluate the proposed approach using a labelled dialogue dataset (MSDialogue) of question-answering interactions between information seekers and answer providers.

神经网络嵌入的成功使人们对使用知识图进行各种机器学习和信息检索任务产生了重新兴趣。特别是，基于图嵌入的最新建议方法显示了最先进的性能。通常，这些方法编码潜在评级模式和内容功能。与以前的工作不同，在本文中，我们建议利用从图表中提取的嵌入，这些嵌入结合了从评分中的信息和文本评论中表达的基于方面的意见。然后，我们根据亚马逊和Yelp评论在六个域上生成的图表调整和评估最新的图形嵌入技术，优于基线推荐器。此外，我们的方法具有提供解释的优势，该解释涉及用户对推荐项目的基于方面意见的报道。

由于知识图表提供的丰富信息，基于路径的可解释的推荐系统的最新进展引起了更大的关注。最现有的可解释的建议仅利用静态知识图表并忽略动态用户项演进，导致不太令人信服和不准确的解释。虽然有一些作品，但意识到建模用户的时间顺序行为可以提高推荐器系统的性能和解释性，其中大多数只关注用户在路径内的顺序交互或独立和单独的推荐机制。在本文中，我们提出了一种新颖的时间元路径指导可解释的推荐利用加强学习（TMER-RL），它利用了连续项目之间的加强项 - 项目路径建模，其注意机制在动态知识图上顺序模拟动态用户项演进用于解释的建议。与使用繁重的经常性神经网络模拟时间信息的现有作品相比，我们提出了简单但有效的神经网络，以捕获用户的历史项目功能和基于路径的上下文，以表征下一个购买的项目。与最近的强大基线相比，两个真实数据集的TMMER广泛评估显示了最先进的表现。

各种网络的部署（例如，事物互联网（IOT）和移动网络），数据库（例如，营养表和食品组成数据库）和社交媒体（例如，Instagram和Twitter）产生大量的多型食品数据，这在食品科学和工业中起着关键作用。然而，由于众所周知的数据协调问题，这些多源食品数据显示为信息孤岛，导致难以充分利用这些食物数据。食物知识图表提供了统一和标准化的概念术语及其结构形式的关系，因此可以将食物信息孤单转换为更可重复使用的全球数量数字连接的食物互联网以使各种应用有益。据我们所知，这是食品科学与工业中食品知识图表的第一个全面审查。我们首先提供知识图表的简要介绍，然后主要从食物分类，食品本体到食品知识图表的进展。粮食知识图表的代表性应用将在新的配方开发，食品可追溯性，食物数据可视化，个性化饮食推荐，食品搜索和质询回答，视觉食品对象识别，食品机械智能制造方面来概述。我们还讨论了该领域的未来方向，例如食品供应链系统和人类健康的食品知识图，这应该得到进一步的研究。他们的巨大潜力将吸引更多的研究努力，将食物知识图形应用于食品科学和工业领域。

With information systems becoming larger scale, recommendation systems are a topic of growing interest in machine learning research and industry. Even though progress on improving model design has been rapid in research, we argue that many advances fail to translate into practice because of two limiting assumptions. First, most approaches focus on a transductive learning setting which cannot handle unseen users or items and second, many existing methods are developed for static settings that cannot incorporate new data as it becomes available. We argue that these are largely impractical assumptions on real-world platforms where new user interactions happen in real time. In this survey paper, we formalize both concepts and contextualize recommender systems work from the last six years. We then discuss why and how future work should move towards inductive learning and incremental updates for recommendation model design and evaluation. In addition, we present best practices and fundamental open challenges for future research.

推荐系统已广泛应用于不同的应用领域，包括能量保存，电子商务，医疗保健，社交媒体等。此类应用需要分析和挖掘大量各种类型的用户数据，包括人口统计，偏好，社会互动等，以便开发准确和精确的推荐系统。此类数据集通常包括敏感信息，但大多数推荐系统专注于模型的准确性和忽略与安全性和用户隐私相关的问题。尽管使用不同的风险减少技术克服这些问题，但它们都没有完全成功，确保了对用户的私人信息的密码安全和保护。为了弥合这一差距，区块链技术作为推动推荐系统中的安全和隐私保存的有希望的策略，不仅是因为其安全性和隐私性突出特征，而且由于其恢复力，适应性，容错和信任特性。本文介绍了涵盖挑战，开放问题和解决方案的基于区块链的推荐系统的整体综述。因此，引入了精心设计的分类，以描述安全和隐私挑战，概述现有框架并在使用区块链之前讨论其应用程序和利益，以指示未来的研究机会。

即使机器学习算法已经在数据科学中发挥了重要作用，但许多当前方法对输入数据提出了不现实的假设。由于不兼容的数据格式，或数据集中的异质，分层或完全缺少的数据片段，因此很难应用此类方法。作为解决方案，我们提出了一个用于样本表示，模型定义和培训的多功能，统一的框架，称为“ Hmill”。我们深入审查框架构建和扩展的机器学习的多个范围范式。从理论上讲，为HMILL的关键组件的设计合理，我们将通用近似定理的扩展显示到框架中实现的模型所实现的所有功能的集合。本文还包含有关我们实施中技术和绩效改进的详细讨论，该讨论将在MIT许可下发布供下载。该框架的主要资产是其灵活性，它可以通过相同的工具对不同的现实世界数据源进行建模。除了单独观察到每个对象的一组属性的标准设置外，我们解释了如何在框架中实现表示整个对象系统的图表中的消息推断。为了支持我们的主张，我们使用框架解决了网络安全域的三个不同问题。第一种用例涉及来自原始网络观察结果的IoT设备识别。在第二个问题中，我们研究了如何使用以有向图表示的操作系统的快照可以对恶意二进制文件进行分类。最后提供的示例是通过网络中实体之间建模域黑名单扩展的任务。在所有三个问题中，基于建议的框架的解决方案可实现与专业方法相当的性能。
