Historical Quality-of-Service (QoS) data describing existing user-service invocations are vital to understanding user behaviors and cloud service conditions. Collaborative Filtering (CF) models based on Matrix Factorization (MF) have proven to be highly efficient in performing representation learning in QoS data. However, its performance is hindered by its linear inherence and implicit encoding of collaborative QoS signal. To address this critical issue, we present a novel approach in this article, dubbed as Two-stream Graph convolutional network-incorporated Latent Feature Analysis (TGLFA). The proposed TGLFA is significantly different from previous approaches to representation learning in QoS data in the following three aspects. First, it constructs a multilayer fully-connected network to capture the attribute characteristics representing the nonlinear latent features of service. Second, TGLFA constructs a biparty graph to represent the user-service interactions, where the light graph convolutional network is adopted to acquire the high-order connectivity in QoS data. Last, Aiming to improve computational efficiency, the proposed approach considers the mechanism for data density-oriented modeling when building the input and output layers. Detailed experimental results on eight large-scale cases constructed on two real QoS datasets demonstrate that the proposed TGLFA significantly outperforms its state-of-the-art peers in both estimation accuracy for missing QoS data and computational efficiency. The notable results show that TGLFA is a novel and effective approach to QoS data representation learning.
