Sujet
Recommender Systems are recommending items to users, choosing the items in a list a thousands of potential one and aiming at those which will please the users. They are a crucial ingredient for websites recommending movies, songs, books, products...
The recommendation is done based on a model of the preferences of users w.r.t. items, where the parameters of the model are learned from users’ feedback, such as listening time, clicks, or rates. This feedback reflects users’ appreciation with respect to each displayed item.
I will present an overview of my contributions towards Recommender Systems, with a focus on two practical aspects: the bandit aspect of the feedback, and the link with Learning to Rank.
