Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Bipartite graph representation learning aims to obtain node embeddings by compressing sparse vectorized representations of interactions between two types of nodes, e.g., users and items. Incorporating structural attributes among homogeneous nodes, such as user communities, improves the identification of similar interaction preferences, namely, user/item embeddings, for downstream tasks. However, existing methods often fail to proactively discover and fully utilize these latent structural attributes. Moreover, themanual collection and labeling of structural attributes is always costly. In this article, we propose a novel approach called Dirichlet Max-margin Matrix Factorization (DM3F), which adopts a self-supervised strategy to discover latent structural attributes and model discriminative node representations. Specifically, in self-supervised learning, our approach generates pseudo group labels (i.e., structural attributes) as a supervised signal using the Dirichlet process without relying on manual collection and labeling, and employs them in a max-margin classification. Additionally, we introduce a Variational Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm (Variational MCMC) to effectively update the parameters. The experimental results on six real datasets demonstrate that, in the majority of cases, the proposed method outperforms existing approaches based on matrix factorization and neural networks. Furthermore, the modularity analysis confirms the effectiveness of our model in capturing structural attributes to produce high-quality user embeddings.
