• Title: DVE: Dynamic Variational Embeddings with Applications in Recommender Systems
• Authors: Meimei Liu, Hongxia Yang
• Abstract summary: We introduce a dynamic variational embedding (DVE) approach for sequence-aware data based on recent advances in neural networks. DVE can model the node's intrinsic nature and temporal variation explicitly and simultaneously, which are crucial for exploration. We further apply DVE to sequence-aware recommender systems, and develop an end-to-end neural architecture for link prediction.

• Abstract: Embedding is a useful technique to project a high-dimensional feature into a low-dimensional space, and it has many successful applications including link prediction, node classification and natural language processing. Current approaches mainly focus on static data, which usually lead to unsatisfactory performance in applications involving large changes over time. How to dynamically characterize the variation of the embedded features is still largely unexplored. In this paper, we introduce a dynamic variational embedding (DVE) approach for sequence-aware data based on recent advances in recurrent neural networks. DVE can model the node's intrinsic nature and temporal variation explicitly and simultaneously, which are crucial for exploration. We further apply DVE to sequence-aware recommender systems, and develop an end-to-end neural architecture for link prediction.

  In this work, we treat the domain parameters of dynamical systems as factors of variation of the data generating process. By leveraging ideas from supervised disentanglement and causal factorization, we aim to separate the domain parameters from the dynamics in the latent space of generative models. Results indicate that disentangled VAEs adapt better to domain parameters spaces that were not present in the training data.

  We combine the advances in both deep generative models and state space model (SSM) to come up with a novel, data-driven deep probabilistic sequence model. Specially, we follow the popular encoder-decoder generative structure to build the recurrent neural networks (RNN) assisted variational sequence model. In order to alleviate the issue of inconsistency between training and predicting, we (i) propose using a hybrid output as input at next time step, which brings training and predicting into alignment.
