Neural TV program recommendation with label and user dual attention

摘要

TV program recommendation is very important for users to find interesting TV programs and avoid confusing users with a lot of information. Currently, they are basically traditional collaborative filtering algorithms, which only recommend through the interactive data between users and programs ignoring the important value of some auxiliary information. In addition, the neural network method based on attention mechanism can well capture the relationship between program labels to obtain accurate program and user representations. In this paper, we propose a neural TV program recommendation with label and user dual attention (NPR-LUA), which can focus on auxiliary information in program and user modules. In the program encoder module, we learn the auxiliary information from program labels through neural networks and word attention to identify important program labels. In the user encoder module, we learn the user representation through the programs that the user watches and use personalized attention mechanism to distinguish the importance of programs for each user. Experiments on real data sets show that our method can effectively improve the effectiveness of TV program recommendations than other existing models.
