Data Processing for Offline Evaluation in Recommender Systems: a Survey
Alberto Carlo Maria Mancino, Angela Di Fazio, Danilo Danese +5
Offline evaluation is the dominant experimental paradigm in recommender systems research, enabling reproducible and cost-effective comparisons on historical interaction data. Yet,…
Who Are You Explaining To? A Multi-Agent System for Audience-Aware XAI Narratives
Francesco Musicco, Danilo Danese, Giuseppe Fasano +3
Feature-attribution methods such as SHAP provide useful evidence about individual model predictions, but their numerical outputs are rarely sufficient for audiences with different…
On the Impact of Graph Neural Networks in Recommender Systems: A Topological Perspective
Daniele Malitesta, Claudio Pomo, Vito Walter Anelli +3
In recommender systems, user-item interactions can be modeled as a bipartite graph, where user and item nodes are connected by undirected edges. This graph-based view has motivated…
Balancing Accuracy and Novelty with Sub-Item Popularity
Chiara Mallamaci, Aleksandr Vladimirovich Petrov, Alberto Carlo Maria Mancino +3
In the realm of music recommendation, sequential recommenders have shown promise in capturing the dynamic nature of music consumption. A key characteristic of this domain is repeti…
DataRec: A Python Library for Standardized and Reproducible Data Management in Recommender Systems
Alberto Carlo Maria Mancino, Salvatore Bufi, Angela Di Fazio +4
Recommender systems have demonstrated significant impact across diverse domains, yet ensuring the reproducibility of experimental findings remains a persistent challenge. A primary…
Dot Product is All You Need: Bridging the Gap Between Item Recommendation and Link Prediction
Daniele Malitesta, Alberto Carlo Maria Mancino, Pasquale Minervini +1
Item recommendation (the task of predicting if a user may interact with new items from the catalogue in a recommendation system) and link prediction (the task of identifying missin…
A Novel Evaluation Perspective on GNNs-based Recommender Systems through the Topology of the User-Item Graph
Daniele Malitesta, Claudio Pomo, Vito Walter Anelli +3
Recently, graph neural networks (GNNs)-based recommender systems have encountered great success in recommendation. As the number of GNNs approaches rises, some works have started q…
Are We Done with MMLU?
Aryo Pradipta Gema, Joshua Ong Jun Leang, Giwon Hong +13
Maybe not. We identify and analyse errors in the popular Massive Multitask Language Understanding (MMLU) benchmark. Even though MMLU is widely adopted, our analysis demonstrates nu…
KGUF: Simple Knowledge-aware Graph-based Recommender with User-based Semantic Features Filtering
Salvatore Bufi, Alberto Carlo Maria Mancino, Antonio Ferrara +3
The recent integration of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) into recommendation has led to a novel family of Collaborative Filtering (CF) approaches, namely Graph Collaborative Filterin…
A Topology-aware Analysis of Graph Collaborative Filtering
Daniele Malitesta, Claudio Pomo, Vito Walter Anelli +3
The successful integration of graph neural networks into recommender systems (RSs) has led to a novel paradigm in collaborative filtering (CF), graph collaborative filtering (graph…
Sparse Feature Factorization for Recommender Systems with Knowledge Graphs
Vito Walter Anelli, Tommaso Di Noia, Eugenio Di Sciascio +2
Deep Learning and factorization-based collaborative filtering recommendation models have undoubtedly dominated the scene of recommender systems in recent years. However, despite th…
