ABSTRACT
At Peloton, we constantly strive to improve the member experience by highlighting personalized content that speaks to each individual user. One area of focus is our landing page, the homescreen, consisting of numerous rows of class recommendations used to captivate our users and guide them through our growing catalog of workouts. In this paper, we discuss a strategy we have used to increase the rate of workouts started from our homescreen through a Thompson sampling approach to row ranking. We also explore a potential improvement with a collaborative filtering method based on user similarity calculated from workout history.

Recommendations
Context adaptation in interactive recommender systems
RecSys '14: Proceedings of the 8th ACM Conference on Recommender systemsContextual factors can greatly influence the utility of recommendations for users. In many recommendation and personalization applications, particularly in domains where user context changes dynamically, it is difficult to represent and model contextual ...
Serendipitous Personalized Ranking for Top-N Recommendation
WI-IAT '12: Proceedings of the The 2012 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Joint Conferences on Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology - Volume 01Serendipitous recommendation has benefitted both e-retailers and users. It tends to suggest items which are both unexpected and useful to users. These items are not only profitable to the retailers but also surprisingly suitable to consumers' tastes. ...
