• Abstract summary: Existing works assume the available POI check-ins reported by users are the ground-truth depiction of user behaviors. In real application scenarios, the check-in data can be rather unreliable due to both subjective and objective causes. We propose a Bayes-enhanced Multi-view Attention Network to address the uncertainty factors of the user check-ins.

• Abstract: POI recommendation is practically important to facilitate various Location-Based Social Network services, and has attracted rising research attention recently. Existing works generally assume the available POI check-ins reported by users are the ground-truth depiction of user behaviors. However, in real application scenarios, the check-in data can be rather unreliable due to both subjective and objective causes including positioning error and user privacy concerns, leading to significant negative impacts on the performance of the POI recommendation. To this end, we investigate a novel problem of robust POI recommendation by considering the uncertainty factors of the user check-ins, and proposes a Bayes-enhanced Multi-view Attention Network. Specifically, we construct personal POI transition graph, the semantic-based POI graph and distance-based POI graph to comprehensively model the dependencies among the POIs. As the personal POI transition graph is usually sparse and sensitive to noise, we design a Bayes-enhanced spatial dependency learning module for data augmentation from the local view. A Bayesian posterior guided graph augmentation approach is adopted to generate a new graph with collaborative signals to increase the data diversity. Then both the original and the augmented graphs are used for POI representation learning to counteract the data uncertainty issue. Next, the POI representations of the three view graphs are input into the proposed multi-view attention-based user preference learning module. By incorporating the semantic and distance correlations of POIs, the user preference can be effectively refined and finally robust recommendation results are achieved. The results of extensive experiments show that BayMAN significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in POI recommendation when the available check-ins are incomplete and noisy.

• Graph Trend Networks for Recommendations [34.06649831739749]
  The key of recommender systems is to predict how likely users will interact with items based on their historical online behaviors. To exploit these user-item interactions, there are increasing efforts on considering the user-item interactions as a user-item bipartite graph. Despite their success, most existing GNN-based recommender systems overlook the existence of interactions caused by unreliable behaviors. We propose the Graph Trend Networks for recommendations (GTN) with principled designs that can capture the adaptive reliability of the interactions.
