IA-GCN: Interactive Graph Convolutional Network for Recommendation
Overview
This is our Tensorflow implementation for our CIKM 2023 short paper:
Zhang, Yinan, et al. “BI-GCN: Bilateral Interactive Graph Convolutional Network for Recommendation.” Proceedings of the 32nd ACM International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management. 2023. (https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3583780.3615232).
We also provide a long version on arxiv: IA-GCN: Interactive Graph Convolutional Network for Recommendation (https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.03827).
Introduction
In this work, we propose a novel graph attention model named Interactive GCN (IA-GCN), which introduces bilateral interactive guidance into each user-item pair for preference prediction. By this manner, we can obtain target-aware representations, i.e., the information of the target item/user is explicitly encoded in the user/item representation, for more precise matching.
For data preprocessing, run make_pkl function located in electronics/l2_hyper_weights/utility/load_data.py to generate ‘data_bin’. Note: the parameter layer_num equals 2 in this example but needs to be changed accordingly.
for custom op compliation, run following commands to generate the ‘tree_out_load_more.so’ file, and put it in the main workspace.
We use four open datasets: Amazon-Electronics, Gowalla, Yelp2018, Amazon-Book, which vary in domains, scale, and density. We closely follow the same data split strategy as existing GCN- based CF works [1, 2]
