HIGnet: Hierarchical and Interactive Gate Networks for Item Recommendation

Existing research exploits the semantic information from reviews to complement user-item interactions for item recommendation. However, as these approaches either defer the user-item interactions until the prediction layer or simply concatenate all the reviews of a user/item into a single review, they fail to capture the complex correlations between each user-item pair or introduce noises. Thus, we propose a novel Hierarchical and Interactive Gate Network (HIGnet) model for rating prediction. Modeling local word informativeness and global review semantics in a hierarchical manner enable us to exploit textual features of users/items and capture complex semantic user-item correlations at different levels of granularities. Experiments on five challenging real-world datasets demonstrate the state-of-the-art performance of the proposed HIGnet model. To facilitate community research, the implementation of the proposed model is made publicly available (https://github.com/uqjwen/higan).
