Popis: | Recently, listwise collaborative filtering (CF) algorithms are attracting increasing interest due to their efficiency and prediction quality. Different from rating-oriented (pointwise) CF, they recommend a preference ranking of items to each user without estimating the absolute value of the ratings. In practice, there are extensive side information about users and items in many corpora that can improve recommendation performance and specially help CF methods to address the cold-start problem. However, a model has not been proposed that incorporates side information to listwise CF. Therefore, in this work, a Bayesian graphical model, called Content-Aware Listwise Collaborative Filtering (CALCF), is developed which incorporates text information, represented as a bag of words, to listwise CF using topic models. We propose a Gibbs sampler with closed-form samples using data augmentation techniques to infer the latent variables. CALCF has been validated by comparison with previous listwise and pointwise algorithms on implicit (click, view, purchase) and explicit (numeric ratings) feedback data in both cold-start and warm-start scenarios. The results demonstrate that in most cases CALCF achieves better Normalized Discounted Cumulative Gain (NDCG) and Recall at top M recommendation compared with the previous models. |
