RecBole-CDR

中文版

RecBole-CDR is a library built upon RecBole for reproducing and developing cross-domain recommendation algorithms.

Highlights

• Automatic and compatible data processing for cross-domain recommendation: Our library designs a unified data structure for cross-domain recommendation, which inherits all the data pre-processing strategies in RecBole. The overlapped data in different domains can be matched automatically.
• Flexible and customized model training strategies: Our library provides four basic training modes for cross-domain recommendation, which can be combined arbitrarily by users. It is also easy to customize training strategy in original way.
• Extensive cross-domain recommendation algorithms: Based on unified data structure and flexible training strategies, several cross-domain recommendation algorithms are implemented and compared with others fairly.

Requirements

recbole==1.0.1
torch>=1.7.0
python>=3.7.0

Quick-Start

With the source code, you can use the provided script for initial usage of our library:

python run_recbole_cdr.py

This script will run the CMF model with ml-1m as source domain dataset and ml-100k as target domain dataset.

If you want to change the models, just run the script by setting additional command parameters:

python run_recbole_cdr.py --model=[model]

Implemented Models

We list currently supported Cross-Domain Recommendation models:

• CMF from Singh et al.: Relational Learning via Collective Matrix Factorization (SIGKDD 2008).
• DTCDR from Zhu et al.: DTCDR: A Framework for Dual-Target Cross-Domain Recommendation (CIKM 2019).
• CoNet from Hu et al.: CoNet: Collaborative Cross Networks for Cross-Domain Recommendation (CIKM 2018).
• BiTGCF from Liu et al.: Cross Domain Recommendation via Bi-directional Transfer Graph Collaborative Filtering Networks (CIKM 2020).
• CLFM from Gao et al.: Cross-Domain Recommendation via Cluster-Level Latent Factor Model (PKDD 2013).
• DeepAPF from Yan et al.: DeepAPF: Deep Attentive Probabilistic Factorization for Multi-site Video Recommendation (IJCAI 2019).
• NATR from Gao et al.: Cross-domain Recommendation Without Sharing User-relevant Data (WWW 2019).
• EMCDR from Man et al.: Cross-Domain Recommendation: An Embedding and Mapping Approach (IJCAI 2017).
• SSCDR from Kang et al.: Semi-Supervised Learning for Cross-Domain Recommendation to Cold-Start Users (CIKM 2019).
• DCDCSR from Zhu et al.: A Deep Framework for Cross-Domain and Cross-System Recommendations (IJCAI 2018).

Result

Dataset

We collected and organized three pairs of datasets with one source domain and one target domain which are commonly used in cross-domain recommendation. Here we provide these datasets for reference:

• Amazon datasets;
• Book-Crossing datasets;
• Douban datasets;

Hyper-parameters

We carefully tune the hyper-parameters of the implemented models on these datasets and we provide these hyper-parameters here for reference:

• Cross-domain-recommendation on Amazon datasets;
• Cross-domain-recommendation on Book-Crossing datasets;
• Cross-domain-recommendation on Douban datasets;
