• Abstract: While the topic of listening context is widely studied in the literature of music recommender systems, the integration of regular user behavior is often omitted. In this paper, we propose PACE (PAttern-based user Consumption Embedding), a framework for building user embeddings that takes advantage of periodic listening behaviors. PACE leverages users' multichannel time-series consumption patterns to build understandable user vectors. We believe the embeddings learned with PACE unveil much about the repetitive nature of user listening dynamics. By applying this framework on long-term user histories, we evaluate the embeddings through a predictive task of activities performed while listening to music. The validation task's interest is two-fold, while it shows the relevance of our approach, it also offers an insightful way of understanding users' musical consumption habits.

  Music recommender systems frequently utilize network-based models to capture relationships between music pieces, artists, and users. New music pieces or artists often face the cold-start problem due to insufficient initial information. To address this, one can extract content-based information directly from the music to enhance collaborative-filtering-based methods.

  User Stateful Embedding (USE) generates user embeddings without the need for exhaustive reprocessing. We introduce a novel training objective named future W-behavior prediction to transcend the limitations of next-token prediction. We conduct experiments on 8 downstream tasks using Snapchat users' behavioral logs in both static (i.e., fixed user behavior sequences) and dynamic (i.e. periodically updated user behavior sequences) settings.

  Sequential recommender models learn to predict the next items a user is likely to interact with based on his/her interaction history on the platform. Most sequential recommenders however lack a higher-level understanding of user intents, which often drive user behaviors online. Intent modeling is thus critical for understanding users and optimizing long-term user experience.

  In the Click-Through Rate (CTR) prediction scenario, user's sequential behaviors are well utilized to capture the user interest. Existing methods mostly utilize attention on the behavior of users, which is not always suitable for CTR prediction. We propose a Multi-Interactive Attention Network (MIAN) to comprehensively extract the latent relationship among all kinds of fine-grained features.
