Weighted matrix factorization method proposed by Hu et al. and Pan et al.
We use the fast learning method proposed by Hu et al. (alternating least squares, ALS), and we use a global parameter to give observed values higher weights.
Literature:
This recommender supports incremental updates.
override void AddFeedback |
( |
ICollection< Tuple< int, int >> |
feedback | ) |
|
|
inlinevirtualinherited |
Add positive feedback events and perform incremental training
- Parameters
-
feedback | collection of user id - item id tuples |
Reimplemented from IncrementalItemRecommender.
virtual bool CanPredict |
( |
int |
user_id, |
|
|
int |
item_id |
|
) |
| |
|
inlinevirtualinherited |
Check whether a useful prediction (i.e. not using a fallback/default answer) can be made for a given user-item combination
It is up to the recommender implementor to decide when a prediction is useful, and to document it accordingly.
- Parameters
-
user_id | the user ID |
item_id | the item ID |
- Returns
- true if a useful prediction can be made, false otherwise
Implements IRecommender.
Reimplemented in ExternalItemRecommender, ExternalRatingPredictor, BiPolarSlopeOne, SlopeOne, Constant, GlobalAverage, UserAverage, ItemAverage, and Random.

override float ComputeObjective |

Compute the current optimization objective (usually loss plus regularization term) of the model
- Returns
- the current objective; -1 if not implemented
Implements MF.
override void Iterate |
( |
| ) |
|
|
inlinevirtual |
Iterate once over the data
Implements MF.
override void LoadModel |
( |
string |
filename | ) |
|
|
inlinevirtualinherited |
Get the model parameters from a file
- Parameters
-
filename | the name of the file to read from |
Reimplemented from Recommender.
Optimizes the specified data
- Parameters
-
override float Predict |
( |
int |
user_id, |
|
|
int |
item_id |
|
) |
| |
|
inlinevirtualinherited |
Predict the weight for a given user-item combination
If the user or the item are not known to the recommender, zero is returned. To avoid this behavior for unknown entities, use CanPredict() to check before.
- Parameters
-
user_id | the user ID |
item_id | the item ID |
- Returns
- the predicted weight

inherited |
Recommend items for a given user
- Parameters
-
user_id | the user ID |
n | the number of items to recommend, -1 for as many as possible |
ignore_items | collection if items that should not be returned; if null, use empty collection |
candidate_items | the candidate items to choose from; if null, use all items |
- Returns
- a sorted list of (item_id, score) tuples
Implemented in WeightedEnsemble, and Ensemble.
