• Authors: Haoran Yang, Hongxu Chen, Lin Li, Philip S. Yu, Guandong Xu
• Abstract summary: User purchasing prediction with multi-behavior information remains a challenging problem for current recommendation systems. We propose the concept of hyper meta-path to construct hyper meta-paths or hyper meta-graphs to explicitly illustrate the dependencies among different behaviors of a user. Thanks to the recent success of graph contrastive learning, we leverage it to learn embeddings of user behavior patterns adaptively instead of assigning a fixed scheme to understand the dependencies among different behaviors.

• Abstract: User purchasing prediction with multi-behavior information remains a challenging problem for current recommendation systems. Various methods have been proposed to address it via leveraging the advantages of graph neural networks (GNNs) or multi-task learning. However, most existing works do not take the complex dependencies among different behaviors of users into consideration. They utilize simple and fixed schemes, like neighborhood information aggregation or mathematical calculation of vectors, to fuse the embeddings of different user behaviors to obtain a unified embedding to represent a user's behavioral patterns which will be used in downstream recommendation tasks. To tackle the challenge, in this paper, we first propose the concept of hyper meta-path to construct hyper meta-paths or hyper meta-graphs to explicitly illustrate the dependencies among different behaviors of a user. How to obtain a unified embedding for a user from hyper meta-paths and avoid the previously mentioned limitations simultaneously is critical. Thanks to the recent success of graph contrastive learning, we leverage it to learn embeddings of user behavior patterns adaptively instead of assigning a fixed scheme to understand the dependencies among different behaviors. A new graph contrastive learning based framework is proposed by coupling with hyper meta-paths, namely HMG-CR, which consistently and significantly outperforms all baselines in extensive comparison experiments.

  Multi-types of behaviors (e.g., clicking, adding to cart, purchasing, etc.) widely exist in most real-world recommendation scenarios. The state-of-the-art multi-behavior models learn behavior dependencies indistinguishably with all historical interactions as input. We propose a novel Coarse-to-fine Knowledge-enhanced Multi-interest Learning framework to learn shared and behavior-specific interests for different behaviors.
