Abstract

Data sparsity is one of the most challenging problems in recommendation systems. In this paper, we tackle this problem by proposing a novel multi-modal behavioral information-aware recommendation method named MIAR which is based on recurrent neural networks and matrix factorization. First, an interaction context-aware sequential prediction model is designed to capture user-item interaction contextual information and behavioral sequence information. Second, an attributed context-aware rating prediction model is proposed to capture attribution contextual information and rating information. Finally, three fusion methods are developed to combine two sub-models. As a result, the MIAR method has several distinguished advantages in terms of mitigating the data sparsity problem. The method can well perceive diverse influences of interaction and attribution contextual information. Meanwhile, a large number of behavioral sequence and rating information can be utilized by the MIAR approach. The proposed algorithm is evaluated on real-world datasets and the experimental results show that MIAR can significantly improve recommendation performance compared to the existing state-of-art recommendation algorithms.
