Abstract

Pairwise learning is a vital technique for personalized ranking with implicit feedback. Given the assumption that each user is more interested in items which have been previously selected by the user than the remaining ones, pairwise learning algorithms can well learn users' preference, from not only the observed user feedbacks but also the underlying interactions between users and items. However, a mass of training instances are randomly derived according to such assumption, which makes the learning procedure often converge slowly and even result in poor predictive models. In addition, the cold start problem often perplexes pairwise learning methods, since most of traditional methods in personalized ranking only take explicit ratings or implicit feedbacks into consideration. For dealing with the above issues, this work proposes a novel personalized ranking model which incorporates implicit feedback with content information by making use of Factorization Machines. For efficiently estimating the parameters of the proposed model, we develop an adaptive sampler to draw informative training instances based on content information of users and items. The experimental results show that our adaptive item sampler indeed can speed up our model, and our model outperforms advanced methods in personalized ranking. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.
