Whileaccuracy has been the prevailing issue of the recommendation problem for the last decades, other facets of the problem, namelydiversity andexplainability, have received much less attention. In this paper, we focus on enhancing diversity of top-N recommendation, while ensuring the trade-off between accuracy and diversity. Thus, we propose an effective framework DivKG leveraging knowledge graph embedding and determinantal point processes (DPP). First, we capture different kinds of relations among users, items and additional entities through a knowledge graph structure. Then, we represent both entities and relations as k-dimensional vectors by optimizing a margin-based loss with all kinds of historical interactions. We use these representations to construct kernel matrices of DPP in order to make top-N diversified predictions. We evaluate our framework on MovieLens datasets coupled with IMDb dataset. Our empirical results show substantial improvement over the state-of-the-art regarding both accuracy and diversity metrics.","PeriodicalId":252050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 43rd International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131302845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For each user and her queries, KEPS first con- ducts personalized entity linking on the queries and forms better intent representations; then it builds a knowledge enhanced profile for the user, using memory networks to store the predicted search intents and linked entities in her search history. The knowledge enhanced user profile and intent representation are then utilized by KEPS for better, knowledge enhanced, personalized search. Furthermore, after providing personalized search for each query, KEPS leverages user's feedback (click on documents) to post-adjust the entity linking on previous queries. This fixes previous linking errors and improves ranking quality for future queries. Experiments on the public AOL search log demonstrate the advantage of knowledge in personalized search: personalized entity linking better reflects user's search intent, the memory networks better maintain user's subtle preferences, and the post linking adjustment fixes some linking errors with the received feedback signals. The three components together lead to a significantly better ranking accuracy of KEPS.","PeriodicalId":252050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 43rd International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126741394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing research has already leveraged eye movement information to investigate user's reading process during document-level relevance judgments and the findings were adopted to build more effective ranking models. Recently, fine-grained (e.g., passage or sentence level) relevance judgments have been paid much attention to with the requirements in conversational search and QA systems. However, there is still a lack of thorough investigation on user's reading behavior during these kinds of interaction processes. To shed light on this research question, we investigate how users allocate their attention to passages of a document during the relevance judgment process. With the eye-tracking data collected in a laboratory study, we show that users pay more attention to the \"key\" passages which contain key useful information. Users tend to revisit these key passages several times to accumulate and verify the gathered information. With both content and user behavior features, we find that key passages can be predicted with supervised learning. We believe that this work contributes to better understanding users' reading behavior and may provide more explainability for relevance estimation.","PeriodicalId":252050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 43rd International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123008839","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence the deployed recommendation systems will recommend some items and not others, and items will have varying levels of exposure to users. As a result, the collected feedback dataset (including most public datasets) can be skewed towards the particular items favored by the deployed model. In this manner, training new recommender systems from interaction data obtained from a previous model creates a feedback loop, i.e. a closed loop feedback. In this paper, we first introduce the closed loop feedback and then investigate the effect of closed loop feedback in both the training and offline evaluation of recommendation models, in contrast to a further exploration of the users' preferences (obtained from the randomly presented items). To achieve this, we make use of open loop datasets, where randomly selected items are presented to users for feedback. Our experiments using an open loop Yahoo! dataset reveal that there is a strong correlation between the deployed model and a new model that is trained based on the closed loop feedback. Moreover, with the aid of exploration we can decrease the effect of closed loop feedback and obtain new and better generalizable models.","PeriodicalId":252050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 43rd International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122245847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As this medium grows, it becomes increasingly important to understand the content of podcasts (e.g. what exactly is being covered, by whom, and how?), and how we can use this to connect users to shows that align with their interests. Given the explosion of new material, how do listeners find the needle in the haystack, and connect to those shows or episodes that speak to them? Furthermore, once they are presented with potential podcasts to listen to, how can they decide if this is what they want? To move the needle forward more rapidly toward this goal, we've introduced the Spotify Podcasts Dataset [1] and TREC shared task [2]. This dataset represents the first large-scale set of podcasts, with transcripts, released to the research community. The accompanying shared task is part of the TREC 2020 Conference, run by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology. The challenge is planned to run for several years, with progressively more demanding tasks: this first year, the challenge involves a search-related task and a task to automatically generate summaries, both based on transcripts of the audio. In this talk I will describe the task and dataset, outlining how the dataset is orders of magnitude larger than previous spoken document datasets, and how the tasks take us beyond previous shared tasks both in spoken document retrieval and NLP.","PeriodicalId":252050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 43rd International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123864904","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Facing to millions or even billions of users, it is hard to store and leverage personalized preferences with a user embedding matrix in real scenarios. And many researches pay attention to users with rich histories, while users with only one or several interactions are the biggest part in real systems. Previous studies make efforts to handle one of the above issues but rarely tackle efficiency and cold-start problems together. In this work, a novel user preference representation called Preference Hash (PreHash) is proposed to model large scale users, including rare-interaction ones. In PreHash, a series of buckets are generated based on users' historical interactions. Users with similar preferences are assigned into the same buckets automatically, including warm and cold ones. Representations of the buckets are learned accordingly. Contributing to the designed hash buckets, only limited parameters are stored, which saves a lot of memory for more efficient modeling. Furthermore, when new interactions are made by a user, his buckets and representations will be dynamically updated, which enables more effective understanding and modeling of the user. It is worth mentioning that PreHash is flexible to work with various recommendation algorithms by taking the place of previous user embedding matrices. We combine it with multiple state-of-the-art recommendation methods and conduct various experiments. Comparative results on public datasets show that it not only improves the recommendation performance but also significantly reduces the number of model parameters. To summarize, PreHash has achieved significant improvements in both efficiency and effectiveness for recommender systems.","PeriodicalId":252050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 43rd International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122812976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing methods have primarily solved this problem by analyzing the discrete interaction among multiple complementary items. However, the fashion items would present certain occlusion and deformation when they are worn on the body. Therefore, the discrete item interaction cannot capture the fashion compatibility in a combined manner due to the neglect of a crucial factor: the overall try-on appearance. In light of this, we propose a multi-modal try-on-guided compatibility modeling scheme to jointly characterize the discrete interaction and try-on appearance of the outfit. In particular, we first propose a multi-modal try-on template generator to automatically generate a try-on template from the visual and textual information of the outfit, depicting the overall look of its composing fashion items. Then, we introduce a new compatibility modeling scheme which integrates the outfit try-on appearance into the traditional discrete item interaction modeling. To fulfill the proposal, we construct a large-scale real-world dataset from SSENSE, named FOTOS, consisting of 11,000 well-matched outfits and their corresponding realistic try-on images. Extensive experiments have demonstrated its superiority to state-of-the-arts.","PeriodicalId":252050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 43rd International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115163237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We use mobile services to perform a broad range of tasks (e.g. booking travel or office work), leading to often lengthy interactions within distinct apps and services. Existing mobile systems handle mostly simple user needs, where a single app is taken as the unit of interaction. To understand users' expectations and to provide context-aware services, it is important to model users' interactions in the task space. In this work, we first propose and evaluate a method for the automated segmentation of users' app usage logs into task units. We focus on two problems: (i) given a sequential pair of app usage logs, identify if there exists a task boundary, and (ii) given any pair of two app usage logs, identify if they belong to the same task. We model these as classification problems that use features from three aspects of app usage patterns: temporal, similarity, and log sequence. Our classifiers improve on traditional timeout segmentation, achieving over 89% performance for both problems. Secondly, we use our best task classifier on a large-scale data set of commercial mobile app usage logs to identify common tasks. We observe that users' performed common tasks ranging from regular information checking to entertainment and booking dinner. Our proposed task identification approach provides the means to evaluate mobile services and applications with respect to task completion.","PeriodicalId":252050,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 43rd International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133624884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
