Data Preparation

To run PARL, 7 files are required:

1.Training Rating records: file_name=TrainInteraction.out
each training sample is a sequence as:
UserId\tItemId\tRating\tDate
Example: 0\t3\t5.0\t1393545600

2.Validate Rating records: file_name=ValidateInteraction.out
The format is the same as the training data format.

3.Testing Rating records: file_name=TestInteraction.out
The format is the same as the training data format.

4.Word2Id diction: file_name=WordDict.out
Each line follows the format as:
Word\tWord_Id
Example: love\t0

5.User Review Document: file_name=UserReviews.out
each line is the format as:
UserId\tWord1 Word2 Word3 …
