Alan: Undo revision 2342 by BarreisR (talk)

The book '''Practical Recommender Systems''' goes behind the curtain to show you how recommender systems work and, more importantly, how to create and apply them for your site. After you’ve covered the basics of how recommender systems work, you’ll discover how to collect user data and produce personalized recommendations. Next, you’ll learn how and where to use the most popular recommendation algorithms and see examples of them in action on sites like Amazon and Netflix. Finally, this hands-on guide covers scaling problems and other issues you may encounter as your site grows.

Publication is expected in the Summer of 2016.

Easyrec

2015-08-05T08:09:48Z

Alan:

'''Easyrec''' is an open source [[recommender system]] that aims primarily for simple integration and administration.
It ships as self-contained Web application with a graphical administration interface. [[User]] action tracking and delivery of recommendations are provided via [[REST]] or SOAP Web services. Recommendation algorithms are integrated through a plugin mechanism and can be added or removed at runtime.

== Concept ==

The main idea of EasyRec is to provide an interface between existing recommender technology and integrators, focusing on the needs of those who administer the client application.
Technically, EasyRec runs off-line recommender algorithms and stores the generated recommendations in a database, providing fast access to recommendations that can be arbitrarily complex to compute.

== Administration Interface ==

The admin application allows
* management of multiple client applications
* excluding specific items from recommendations
* reviewing recommendations
* statistics about the client application usage
* management of item types
* new in upcoming release: manual creation of item clusters e.g. for cross-selling
* managing recommendation algorithms (aka generator plugins)

== Generator Plugin System ==
Generators plugins are wrappers around recommender implementations. They are executed on a regular basis and can be added by uploading a jar file in the admin interface.
Currently shipping with easyrec:
* [[Association rule]] miner for calculating similar items based on user actions
* [[Slope-One]] for creating rating-based item recommendations

2013 ECML PKDD Discovery Challenge 2013 - Recommending Given Names

2015-08-03T07:04:11Z

Alan:

'''15th Discovery Challenge - Recommending Given Names''' ('''20DC13''') organized in conjunction with [http://www.ecmlpkdd2013.org/ ECML PKDD 2013], September 23rd to 27th, 2013, Prague, Czech Republic

All over the world, future parents are facing the task of finding suitable given names for their children. This choice is influenced by different factors, such as the [[social context]], language, cultural background and especially personal taste. Typically, parents spent hours with browsing through endless lists of names, hoping to find the perfect name.

== 2nd Announcement: 20DC13 Call for Participation ==

This year’s [[ECMLPKDD]] [[Discovery Challenge]] addresses the task of recommending given names, that is, creating a [[recommender system]] for first names. Given a set of names for which a user has shown interest in, the recommender should provide suggestions for further names. The challenge is based on actual usage data of the name search platform [http://nameling.net nameling], which attracted more than 60,000 users within less than a year.

The task of recommending names is new and thus many approaches have the potential to yield a successful contribution. Teams of any size and background (researchers, students, etc.) are welcome alike and we are very much looking forward to your contribution and seeing you at the 20DC13 workshop!

The challenge consists of two parts, an offline and an online challenge. In the offline challenge, participants develop a recommender that, given a set of names for which a user has shown interest in, provides as list of recommendations for that user. To win the offline challenge it is not mandatory to take part in the online challenge although all participants are welcome to integrate their recommender algorithms into the live system.

For detailed information regarding participation, task description and access to the data please check the official [http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/ws/dc13 20DC13-Callenge-Website].

The registration is open! First results can be compared on the leaderboard on the challenge website.

== Important Deadlines & Dates ==
* Deadline for results of the offline challenge: July 1st, 2013
* Submission deadline for papers (offline challenge): July 8th, 2013
* Start of the online challenge: July 15th, 2013
* Workshop: Takes place during the ECML PKDD 2013 conference

All participants are asked to prepare papers which will be presented either as oral presentations or posters. Submissions must be written in English, following the [http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs/lncs+authors LNCS guidelines] and must not exceed 12 pages including references and figures.
Papers must be submitted via [https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=20dc13 EasyChair]. The submissions to the workshop are elicited through an open call for papers and will undergo peer review by the program committee.
- All submissions must be in English.
- All submissions will be peer-reviewed by the Workshop’s Program Committee.
- Accepted Papers will be presented

Authors of accepted papers will be invited to submit their paper for publication in the online proceedings which will appear in the [http://ceur-ws.org/ CEUR-WS] on-line proceedings series. At least one author of each accepted paper must attend the event in order to present the paper; accepted papers whose authors have not shown up at the workshop to present the paper will not be published in the proceedings.

2013 ECML PKDD Discovery Challenge 2013 - Recommending Given Names

2015-07-31T11:28:57Z

Alan:

'''15th Discovery Challenge - Recommending Given Names''' ('''20DC13''') organized in conjunction with [http://www.ecmlpkdd2013.org/ ECML PKDD 2013], September 23rd to 27th, 2013, Prague, Czech Republic

All over the world, future parents are facing the task of finding suitable given names for their children. This choice is influenced by different factors, such as the [[social context]], language, cultural background and especially personal taste. Typically, parents spent hours with browsing through endless lists of names, hoping to find the perfect name.

== 2nd Announcement: 20DC13 Call for Participation ==

This year’s [[ECML/PKDD]] [[Discovery Challenge]] addresses the task of recommending given names, that is, creating a [[recommender system]] for first names. Given a set of names for which a user has shown interest in, the recommender should provide suggestions for further names. The challenge is based on actual usage data of the name search platform [http://nameling.net nameling], which attracted more than 60,000 users within less than a year.

The task of recommending names is new and thus many approaches have the potential to yield a successful contribution. Teams of any size and background (researchers, students, etc.) are welcome alike and we are very much looking forward to your contribution and seeing you at the 20DC13 workshop!

The challenge consists of two parts, an offline and an online challenge. In the offline challenge, participants develop a recommender that, given a set of names for which a user has shown interest in, provides as list of recommendations for that user. To win the offline challenge it is not mandatory to take part in the online challenge although all participants are welcome to integrate their recommender algorithms into the live system.

For detailed information regarding participation, task description and access to the data please check the official [http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/ws/dc13 20DC13-Callenge-Website].

The registration is open! First results can be compared on the leaderboard on the challenge website.

== Important Deadlines & Dates ==
* Deadline for results of the offline challenge: July 1st, 2013
* Submission deadline for papers (offline challenge): July 8th, 2013
* Start of the online challenge: July 15th, 2013
* Workshop: Takes place during the ECML PKDD 2013 conference

All participants are asked to prepare papers which will be presented either as oral presentations or posters. Submissions must be written in English, following the [http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs/lncs+authors LNCS guidelines] and must not exceed 12 pages including references and figures.
Papers must be submitted via [https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=20dc13 EasyChair]. The submissions to the workshop are elicited through an open call for papers and will undergo peer review by the program committee.
- All submissions must be in English.
- All submissions will be peer-reviewed by the Workshop’s Program Committee.
- Accepted Papers will be presented

Authors of accepted papers will be invited to submit their paper for publication in the online proceedings which will appear in the [http://ceur-ws.org/ CEUR-WS] on-line proceedings series. At least one author of each accepted paper must attend the event in order to present the paper; accepted papers whose authors have not shown up at the workshop to present the paper will not be published in the proceedings.

Recommender101

2015-07-31T11:22:02Z

Alan:

'''Recommender101''' is a lightweight and easy-to-use [[framework]] written in Java to carry out [[offline experiments]] for [[Recommender Systems]]. It provides the user with various [[metrics]] and common [[evaluation]] strategies as well as some example recommenders and a dataset. The framework is easily extensible and allows the user to implement own recommenders and metrics.

Implemented algorithms: [[Nearest neighbors]] (kNN), [[SlopeOne]], [[matrix factorization]] methods, [[BPR]], [[content-based filtering]] and others

Evaluation techniques: Cross-validation; metrics include [[Precision]], [[Recall]], [[NDCG]], [[MAE]], [[RMSE]], [[AUC]], [[Gini index]] and others

Alan:

== Tag Recommender Benchmarking Framework ==

''TagRec won the best poster award @ [http://ht.acm.org/ht2014/index.php?awards.poster Hypertext 2014 (HT'14) conference ]''

The aim of '''TagRec''' is to provide the community with a simple to use, '''generic [[tag-recommender]] framework''' written in '''Java''' to evaluate novel tag-[[recommender algorithms]] with a set of well-known std. IR metrics such as [[nDCG]], [[MAP]], [[MRR]], [[Precision]] (P@k), [[Recall]] (R@k), [[F1]]-score (F1@k), [[Diversity]] (D), [[Serendipity]] (S), [[User Coverage]] (UC) and [[folksonomy]] datasets such as BibSonomy, CiteULike, LastFM, Flickr, MovieLens or Delicious and to benchmark the developed approaches against state-of-the-art tag-recommender algorithms such as MP, MP_r, MP_u, MP_u,r, CF, APR, FR, GIRP, GIRPTM, etc.

Furthermore, it contains algorithms to process datasets (e.g., p-core pruning, leave-one-out or 80/20 splitting, LDA topic creation and create input files for other recommender frameworks).

The software already '''contains four novel tag-recommender approaches based on cognitive science theory'''. The first one (3Layers) (Seitlinger et al, 2013) uses topic information and is based on the ALCOVE/MINERVA2 theories (Krutschke, 1992; Hintzman, 1984). The second one (BLL+C) (Kowald et al., 2014b) uses time information is based on the ACT-R theory (Anderson et al., 2004). The third one (3LT) (Kowald et al., 2015b) is a combination of the former two approaches and integrates the time component on the level of tags and topics. Finally, the fourth one (BLLac+MPr) extends the BLL+C algorithm with semantic correlations (Kowald et al., 2015a).

Based on our latest strand of research, '''TagRec also contains algorithms for the personalized recommendation of items''' in social tagging systems. In this respect TagRec includes a novel algorithm called CIRTT (Lacic et al., 2014) that integrates tag and time information using the BLL-equation coming from the ACT-R theory (Anderson et al, 2004). Furthermore, it contains another novel item-recommender called SUSTAIN+CFu (Seitlinger et al., 2015) that improves user-based CF via integrating the addentional focus of users via the SUSTAIN model (Love et al., 2004).
