• Abstract: Session-based recommendations aim to predict the next behavior of users based on ongoing sessions. The previous works have been modeling the session as a variable-length of a sequence of items and learning the representation of both individual items and the aggregated session. Recent research has applied graph neural networks with an attention mechanism to capture complicated item transitions and dependencies by modeling the sessions into graph-structured data. However, they still face fundamental challenges in terms of data and learning methodology such as sparse supervision signals and noisy interactions in sessions, leading to sub-optimal performance. In this paper, we propose SR-GCL, a novel contrastive learning framework for a session-based recommendation. As a crucial component of contrastive learning, we propose two global context enhanced data augmentation methods while maintaining the semantics of the original session. The extensive experiment results on two real-world E-commerce datasets demonstrate the superiority of SR-GCL as compared to other state-of-the-art methods.

  We propose graph contrastive learning to enhance item representations with complex associations from the global view.

By segmenting and permuting temporal segments or human body parts, we design two self-supervised learning classification tasks.

  This paper proposes a novel sequential recommendation framework, namely Graph Contrastive Learning for Sequential Recommendation (GCL4SR) GCL4SR employs a Weighted Item Transition Graph (WITG), built based on interaction sequences of all users, to provide global context information for each interaction and weaken the noise information in the sequence data. Experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that GCL4SR consistently outperforms state-of-the-art sequential recommendation methods.

  We introduce a latent variable to represent users' intents and learn the distribution function of the latent variable via clustering. We propose to leverage the learned intents into SR models via contrastive SSL, which maximizes the agreement between a view of sequence and its corresponding intent. Experiments conducted on four real-world datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed learning paradigm.
