Effectively Using Long and Short Sessions for Multi-Session-based Recommendations (2205.04366v1)

Published 9 May 2022 in cs.IR

Abstract: It is not accurate to make recommendations only based one single current session. Therefore, multi-session-based recommendation(MSBR) is a solution for the problem. Compared with the previous MSBR models, we have made three improvements in this paper. First, the previous work choose to use all the history sessions of the user and/or of his similar users. When the user's current interest changes greatly from the past, most of these sessions can only have negative impacts. Therefore, we select a large number of randomly chosen sessions from the dataset as candidate sessions to avoid over depending on history data. Then we only choose to use the most similar sessions to get the most useful information while reduce the noise caused by dissimilar sessions. Second, in real-world datasets, short sessions account for a large proportion. The RNN often used in previous work is not suitable to process short sessions, because RNN only focuses on the sequential relationship, which we find is not the only relationship between items in short sessions. So, we designed a more suitable method named GAFE based on attention to process short sessions. Third, Although there are few long sessions, they can not be ignored. Not like previous models, which simply process long sessions in the same way as short sessions, we propose LSIS, which can split the interest of long sessions, to make better use of long sessions. Finally, to help recommendations, we also have considered users' long-term interests captured by a multi-layer GRU. Considering the four points above, we built the model ENIREC. Experiments on two real-world datasets show that the comprehensive performance of ENIREC is better than other existing models.
