Click-through rate (CTR) prediction plays a crucial role in online services and applications, such as online shopping and advertising. The performance of CTR prediction can have a direct impact on user experience and the revenue of the online platforms. For CTR prediction models, self-attention-based methods have been widely applied to this field. Recent works generally adopted the Transformer architecture, where the self-attention mechanism can capture the global dependencies of the user's historical interactions and predict the next item. Despite the effectiveness of self-attention methods in modeling sequential user behaviors, most sequential recommenders hardly exploit feature interaction techniques to extract high-order feature combinations. In this paper, we propose a Feature-Interaction-Enhanced Sequence Model (FESeq), which integrates feature interaction and the sequential recommendation model in a cascading structure. Specifically, the interacting layer in FESeq is an automatic feature engineering step for the Transformer model. Then, we add a linear time interval embedding layer and a positional embedding layer to the Transformer in the sequence-refiner layer to learn both the time intervals and the position information in the user's sequence behaviors. We also design an attention-based sequence pooling layer that can model the relevance of the user's historical behaviors and the target item representation through scaled bilinear attention. Our experiments show that the proposed method beats all the baselines on both public and industrial datasets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
