ALX: Large Scale Matrix Factorization on TPUs
Harsh Mehta, Steffen Rendle, Walid Krichene +1
We present ALX, an open-source library for distributed matrix factorization using Alternating Least Squares, written in JAX. Our design allows for efficient use of the TPU architec…
iALS++: Speeding up Matrix Factorization with Subspace Optimization
Steffen Rendle, Walid Krichene, Li Zhang +1
iALS is a popular algorithm for learning matrix factorization models from implicit feedback with alternating least squares. This algorithm was invented over a decade ago but still…
Revisiting the Performance of iALS on Item Recommendation Benchmarks
Steffen Rendle, Walid Krichene, Li Zhang +1
Matrix factorization learned by implicit alternating least squares (iALS) is a popular baseline in recommender system research publications. iALS is known to be one of the most com…
Private Alternating Least Squares: Practical Private Matrix Completion with Tighter Rates
Steve Chien, Prateek Jain, Walid Krichene +4
We study the problem of differentially private (DP) matrix completion under user-level privacy. We design a joint differentially private variant of the popular Alternating-Least-Sq…
Item Recommendation from Implicit Feedback
Steffen Rendle
The task of item recommendation is to select the best items for a user from a large catalogue of items. Item recommenders are commonly trained from implicit feedback which consists…
