Recommender systems based on graph neural networks (GNNs) have been proved to perform well on user-item interactions. However, they commonly suffer from popularity bias -- the tendency to over-recommend popular items -- resulting in less…

Contrastive learning (CL) has recently been demonstrated critical in improving recommendation performance. The underlying principle of CL-based recommendation models is to ensure the consistency between representations derived from…

Recommender systems often rely on graph-based filters, such as normalized item-item adjacency matrices and low-pass filters. While effective, the centralized computation of these components raises concerns about privacy, security, and the…

Graphs arising in statistical problems, signal processing, large networks, combinatorial optimization, and data analysis are often dense, which causes both computational and storage bottlenecks. One way of \textit{sparsifying} a…

Regularization is often used in high-dimensional regression settings to generate a sparse model, which can save tremendous computing resources and identify predictors that are most strongly associated with the response. When the predictors…

In this paper we introduce the first application of the Belief Propagation (BP) algorithm in the design of recommender systems. We formulate the recommendation problem as an inference problem and aim to compute the marginal probability…

Network reconstruction is important to the understanding and control of collective dynamics in complex systems. Most real networks exhibit sparsely connected properties, and the connection parameter is a signal (0 or 1). Well-known…

\textbf{G}raph \textbf{C}onvolutional \textbf{N}etwork (\textbf{GCN}) is widely used in graph data learning tasks such as recommendation. However, when facing a large graph, the graph convolution is very computationally expensive thus is…

In this paper, we propose a novel graph-based approach for semi-supervised learning problems, which considers an adaptive adjacency of the examples throughout the unsupervised portion of the training. Adjacency of the examples is inferred…

Learning a smooth graph signal from partially observed data is a well-studied task in graph-based machine learning. We consider this task from the perspective of optimal recovery, a mathematical framework for learning a function from…

A deformation of the combinatorial Laplacian is proposed, consisting in a generalization of several existing Laplacians. As particular cases of this construction, the dilation Laplacians are shown to be useful tools for ranking in directed…

Learning the distance metric between pairs of examples is of great importance for visual recognition, especially for person re-identification (Re-Id). Recently, the contrastive and triplet loss are proposed to enhance the discriminative…

Proper initialization is crucial to the optimization and the generalization of neural networks. However, most existing neural recommendation systems initialize the user and item embeddings randomly. In this work, we propose a new…

Conversational recommender systems (CRS) enable the traditional recommender systems to explicitly acquire user preferences towards items and attributes through interactive conversations. Reinforcement learning (RL) is widely adopted to…

Personalized image generation is crucial for improving the user experience, as it renders reference images into preferred ones according to user visual preferences. Although effective, existing methods face two main issues. First, existing…

Recommender systems (RSs) are designed to retrieve candidate items a user might be interested in from a large pool. A common approach is using graph neural networks (GNNs) to capture high-order interaction relationships. As large language…

Recommender systems are a vital tool that helps us to overcome the information overload problem. They are being used by most e-commerce web sites and attract the interest of a broad scientific community. A recommender system uses data on…

We provide algorithms involving edge slides, for a connected simple graph to evolve in a finite number of steps to another connected simple graph in a prescribed configuration, and for the regularization of such a graph by the minimization…

Recommender systems help users find relevant items of interest, for example on e-commerce or media streaming sites. Most academic research is concerned with approaches that personalize the recommendations according to long-term user…

Variational regularization of ill-posed inverse problems is based on minimizing the sum of a data fidelity term and a regularization term. The balance between them is tuned using a positive regularization parameter, whose automatic choice…
