Health-guided recipe recommendation over knowledge graphs

While the availability of large-scale online recipe collections presents opportunities for health consumers to access a wide variety of recipes, it can be challenging for them to discover relevant recipes. Whereas most recommender systems are designed to offer selections consistent with users’ past behavior, it remains an open problem to offer selections that can help users’ transition from one type of behavior to another, intentionally. In this paper, we introduce health-guided recipe recommendation as a way to incrementally shift users towards healthier recipe options while respecting the preferences reflected in their past choices. Introducing a knowledge graph (KG) into recommender systems as side information has attracted great interest, but its use in recipe recommendation has not been studied. To fill this gap, we consider the task of recipe recommendation over knowledge graphs. In particular, we jointly learn recipe representations via graph neural networks over two graphs extracted from a large-scale Food KG, which capture different semantic relationships, namely, user preferences and recipe healthiness, respectively. To integrate the nutritional aspects into recipe representations and the recommendation task, instead of simple fusion, we utilize a knowledge transfer scheme to enable the transfer of useful semantic information across the preferences and healthiness aspects. Experimental results on two large real-world recipe datasets showcase our model’s ability to recommend tasty as well as healthy recipes to users.

Document recommendation for knowledge sharing in personal folder environments

Sharing sustainable and valuable knowledge among knowledge workers is a fundamental aspect of knowledge management. In organizations, knowledge workers usually have personal folders in which they organize and store needed codified knowledge (textual documents) in categories. In such personal folder environments, providing knowledge workers with needed knowledge from other workers’ folders is important because it increases the workers’ productivity and the possibility of reusing and sharing knowledge. Conventional recommendation methods can be used to recommend relevant documents to workers; however, those methods recommend knowledge items without considering whether the items are assigned to the appropriate category in the target user’s personal folders. In this paper, we propose novel document recommendation methods, including content-based filtering and categorization, collaborative filtering and categorization, and hybrid methods, which integrate text categorization techniques, to recommend documents to target worker’s personalized categories. Our experiment results show that the hybrid methods outperform the pure content-based and the collaborative filtering and categorization methods. The proposed methods not only proactively notify knowledge workers about relevant documents held by their peers, but also facilitate push-mode knowledge sharing.

Integrating knowledge flow mining and collaborative filtering to support document recommendation

Knowledge is a critical resource that organizations use to gain and maintain competitive advantages. In the constantly changing business environment, organizations must exploit effective and efficient methods of preserving, sharing and reusing knowledge in order to help knowledge workers find task-relevant information. Hence, an important issue is how to discover and model the knowledge flow (KF) of workers from their historical work records. The objectives of a knowledge flow model are to understand knowledge workers’ task-needs and the ways they reference documents, and then provide adaptive knowledge support. This work proposes hybrid recommendation methods based on the knowledge flow model, which integrates KF mining, sequential rule mining and collaborative filtering techniques to recommend codified knowledge. These KF-based recommendation methods involve two phases: a KF mining phase and a KF-based recommendation phase. The KF mining phase identifies each worker’s knowledge flow by analyzing his/her knowledge referencing behavior (information needs), while the KF-based recommendation phase utilizes the proposed hybrid methods to proactively provide relevant codified knowledge for the worker. Therefore, the proposed methods use workers’ preferences for codified knowledge as well as their knowledge referencing behavior to predict their topics of interest and recommend task-related knowledge. Using data collected from a research institute laboratory, experiments are conducted to evaluate the performance of the proposed hybrid methods and compare them with the traditional CF method. The results of experiments demonstrate that utilizing the document preferences and knowledge referencing behavior of workers can effectively improve the quality of recommendations and facilitate efficient knowledge sharing.

针对基于内容的新闻推荐方法中用户兴趣多样性的缺乏问题和混合推荐方法存在的冷启动问题,提出一种基于内容与协同过滤融合的方法进行新闻推荐。首先利用基于内容的方法发现用户既有兴趣;再用内容与行为的混合相似度模式,寻找目标用户的相似用户群,预测用户对特征词的兴趣度,发现用户潜在兴趣;然后将用户既有兴趣与潜在兴趣融合,得到兼具个性化和多样性的用户兴趣模型;最后将候选新闻与融合模型进行相似度计算,形成推荐列表。实验结果显示,与基于内容的推荐方法相比,所提方法的F-measure和整体多样性Diversity均有明显提高;与混合推荐方法相比,性能相当,但候选新闻无需耗时积累足够的用户点击量,不存在冷启动问题。     

Who to follow recommendation in large-scale online development communities

ContextOpen source development allows a large number of people to reuse and contribute source code to the community. Social networking features open opportunities for information discovery, social collaborations, and improved recommendations of potential collaborators.ObjectiveOnline community and development platforms rely on social network features to increase awareness and attention among community members for improved collaborations. The objective of this work is to introduce an approach for recommending relevant users to follow. Follower networks provide means for informal information propagation. The efficiency and effectiveness of such information flows is impacted by the network structure. Here, we aim to understand the resilience of networks against random or strategic node removal.MethodSocial network features of online software development communities present a new opportunity to enhance online collaboration. Our approach is based on the automatic analysis of user behavior and network structure. The proposed ‘who to follow’ recommendation algorithm can be parametrized for specific contexts. Link-analysis techniques such as PageRank/HITS provide the basis for a novel ‘who to follow’ recommendation model.ResultsWe tested the approach using a GitHub-based dataset. Currently, users follow popular community members to get updates regarding their activities instead of maintaining personal relations. Thus, social network features require further improvements to increase reciprocity. The application of our ‘who to follow’ recommendation model using the GitHub dataset shows excellent results with respect to context-sensitive following recommendations. The sensitivity of GitHub’s follower network to random node removal is comparable with other social networks but more sensitive to follower authority based node removal.ConclusionLink-based algorithm can be used for context-sensitive ‘who to follow’ recommendations. GitHub is highly sensitive to authority based node removal. Information flow established through follower relations will be strongly impacted if many authorities are removed from the network. This underpins the importance of ‘central’ users and the validity of focusing the ‘who to follow’ recommendations on those users.

A resource-efficient event algebra

Events play many roles in computer systems, ranging from hardware interrupts, over event-based software architecture, to monitoring and managing of complex systems. In many applications, however, individual event occurrences are not the main point of concern, but rather the occurrences of certain event patterns. Such event patterns can be defined by means of an event algebra, i.e., expressions representing the patterns of interest are built from simple events and operators such as disjunction, sequence, etc.We propose a novel event algebra with intuitive operators (a claim which is supported by a number of algebraic properties). We also present an efficient detection algorithm that correctly detects any expression with bounded memory, which makes this algebra particularly suitable for resource-constrained applications such as embedded systems.

Temporal event searches based on event maps and relationships

To satisfy a user’s need to find and understand the whole picture of an event effectively and efficiently, in this paper we formalize the problem of temporal event searches and propose a framework of event relationship analysis for search events based on user queries. We define three kinds of event relationships: temporal, content dependence, and event reference, that can be used to identify to what extent a component event is dependent on another in the evolution of a target event (i.e., the query event). The search results are organized as a temporal event map (TEM) that serves as the whole picture about an event’s evolution or development by showing the dependence relationships among events. Based on the event relationships in the TEM, we further propose a method to measure the degrees of importance of events, so as to discover the important component events for a query, as well as the several algebraic operators involved in the TEM, that allow users to view the target event. Experiments conducted on a real data set show that our method outperforms the baseline method Event Evolution Graph (EEG), and it can help discover certain new relationships missed by previous methods and even by human annotators.

基于高斯分布建模的序列推荐算法

目前大多数序列推荐系统(SRS)都假设需要预测的下一项与用户的上一项输入有关,然而真实场景中,用户可能会在浏览过程中误点击与自身兴趣偏好不一致的项目(不可靠实例)。针对此问题,提出了一种基于高斯分布建模的序列推荐算法。该算法首先通过一个含有多头自注意力的不确定性感知图集合网络(uncertainty-aware graph ensemble network,UAN),通过降低输入项的不确定性来提取输入的序列模式;其次将提取的输入序列模式建模为一个高斯分布,得到序列信息中的动态用户偏好以及偏好的不确定性;再将传统的推荐目标函数拓展为一个采样损失函数和一个不确定性正则化器,赋予每个训练实例适当的不确定性;最后将高损失且低不确定性的不可靠实例去除,增强序列推荐的准确性。该算法在三个公开的数据集Book-Crossing、MovieLens-1M和Steam上进行实验测试,结果表明,该算法相对于效果较好的基线取得了5.3%左右的提升,得到了更优的序列推荐结果,并能通过有效降低输入序列信息的不确定性,从而提升推荐准确率。
