Consistency-Aware Recommendation for User-Generated ItemList Continuation

1 code implementation30 Dec 2019 Yun He, Yin Zhang, Weiwen Liu, James Caverlee

Complementary to methods that exploit specific content patterns (e. g., as in song-based playlists that rely on audio features), the proposed approach models the consistency of item lists based on human curation patterns, and so can be deployed across a wide range of varying item types (e. g., videos, images, books).

Neural Re-ranking in Multi-stage Recommender Systems: A Review

1 code implementation14 Feb 2022 Weiwen Liu, Yunjia Xi, Jiarui Qin, Fei Sun, Bo Chen, Weinan Zhang, Rui Zhang, Ruiming Tang

As the final stage of the multi-stage recommender system (MRS), re-ranking directly affects user experience and satisfaction by rearranging the input ranking lists, and thereby plays a critical role in MRS. With the advances in deep learning, neural re-ranking has become a trending topic and been widely applied in industrial applications.

An F-shape Click Model for Information Retrieval on Multi-block Mobile Pages

1 code implementation17 Jun 2022 Lingyue Fu, Jianghao Lin, Weiwen Liu, Ruiming Tang, Weinan Zhang, Rui Zhang, Yong Yu

However, with the development of user interface (UI) design, the layout of displayed items on a result page tends to be multi-block (i. e., multi-list) style instead of a single list, which requires different assumptions to model user behaviors more accurately.
