Popis: Social recommender systems are expected to improve recommendation quality by incorporating social information when there is little user–item interaction data. Therefore, how to effectively fuse interaction information and social information becomes a hot research topic in social recommendation, and how to mine and exploit the heterogeneous information in the interaction and social space becomes the key to improving recommendation performance. In this paper, we propose a social recommendation model based on basic spatial mapping and bilateral generative adversarial networks (MBSGAN). First, we propose to map the base space to the interaction and social space, respectively, in order to overcome the issue of heterogeneous information fusion in two spaces. Then, we construct bilateral generative adversarial networks in both interaction space and social space. Specifically, two generators are used to select candidate samples that are most similar to user feature vectors, and two discriminators are adopted to distinguish candidate samples from high-quality positive and negative examples obtained from popularity sampling, so as to learn complex information in the two spaces. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed MBSGAN model is verified by comparing it with both eight social recommendation models and six models based on generative adversarial networks on four public datasets, Douban, FilmTrust, Ciao, and Epinions.
