Hyper-Parameter Optimization for Latent Spaces in Dynamic Recommender Systems

A Bayesian generative model is presented for recommending interesting items and trustworthy users to the targeted users in social rating networks with asymmetric and directed trust relationships. The proposed model is the first unified approach to …

Probabilistic Approaches to Recommendations

The importance of accurate recommender systems has been widely recognized by academia and industry, and recommendation is rapidly becoming one of the most successful applications of data mining and machine learning. Understanding and predicting the …

A Generative Bayesian Model for Item and User Recommendation in Social Rating Networks with Trust Relationships

A Bayesian generative model is presented for recommending interesting items and trustworthy users to the targeted users in social rating networks with asymmetric and directed trust relationships. The proposed model is the first unified approach to …

An Analysis of Probabilistic Methods for Top-N Recommendation in Collaborative Filtering

In this work we perform an analysis of probabilistic approaches to recommendation upon a different validation perspective, which focuses on accuracy metrics such as recall and precision of the recommendation list. Traditionally, state-of-art …
