Abstract

Personalized prediction for users based on their historical behavior sequences is a challenging problem in the field of recommender systems. The development of recurrent neural networks enables systems to better process sequence information to capture users’ long-term preferences. While it cannot effectively utilize both long-term and short-term preferences. In this paper, we propose a novel double-layer attention mechanism mode, which not only increases the weight of short-term preferences in the model, but also assigns separate weights to users’ recent behaviors, and then effectively preventing the prediction bias caused by mis-click. The proposed model is experimented on MovieLens, Amazon video game and Amazon digital music datasets, and the results show that our model achieves the best performance in all datasets.
