Session-Based Recommendation by Exploiting Substitutable and Complementary Relationships from Multi-behavior Data

원문 초록

Session-based recommendation (SR) aims to dynamically recommend items to a user based on a sequence of the most recent user-item interactions. Most existing studies on SR adopt advanced deep learning methods. However, the majority only consider a special behavior type (e.g., click), while those few considering multi-typed behaviors ignore to take full advantage of the relationships between products (items). In this case, the paper proposes a novel approach, called Substitutable and Complementary Relationships from Multi-behavior Data (denoted as SCRM) to better explore the relationships between products for effective recommendation. Specifically, we firstly construct substitutable and complementary graphs based on a user's sequential behaviors in every session by jointly considering `click' and `purchase' behaviors. We then design a denoising network to remove false relationships, and further consider constraints on the two relationships via a particularly designed loss function. Extensive experiments on two e-commerce datasets demonstrate the superiority of our model over state-of-the-art methods, and the effectiveness of every component in SCRM.
