Code for our CIKM 2020 Paper "S3-Rec: Self-Supervised Learning for Sequential Recommendation with Mutual Information Maximization"

Overview

Reproduce

Please check the ./reproduce/ directory.

Results

Performance comparison of different methods on six datasets. The best performance and the second best performance methods are denoted in bold and underlined fonts respectively.

In the PAPER, we pair the ground-truth item with 99 randomly sampled negative items that the user has not interacted with, and report the results of HR@{1, 5, 10}, NDCG@{5, 10} and MRR. The used test files are name as

data-name_sample.txt

The results are shown in the following pic.

We alse rank the ground-truth item with all the items. We omit the FM and AutoInt because they need enumerate all user-item pairs, which take a very long time.

The results are shown in the following pic.

requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

finetune

We support two evaluation methods. For more details, please check the ./reproduce directory.

• Rank ground-truth item with 99 randomly sampled negative items

python run_finetune_sample.py \
--data_name data_name \
--ckp pretrain_epochs_num

• Rank the ground-truth item with all the items

python run_finetune_full.py \
--data_name data_name \
