We consider the general problem of modeling temporal data with long-range dependencies, wherein new observations are fully or partially predictable based on temporally-distant, past observations. A sufficiently powerful temporal model…

Modeling the sequential correlation of users' historical interactions is essential in sequential recommendation. However, the majority of the approaches mainly focus on modeling the \emph{intra-sequence} item correlation within each…
