ADKGN: An Attentive Dynamic Knowledge Graph Network for Sequential Recommendation

Sequential recommendation system's goal is to predict users' next actions based on their historical behavior sequences. As we know, more recent items have a larger impact than the previous ones. Meanwhile, modeling users' current interests are challenging. Knowledge graph (KG) contains a vast of information, which can help us capture users' interests by propagating their interactions. In this paper, we propose an Attentive Dynamic Knowledge Graph Networks (ADKGN) for sequential recommendation, which includes an embedding module, an attentive dynamic knowledge graph module, a sequential process module and a prediction module. Specifically, embedding module learns initial item embedding vectors by combing latent features and sequential features. For users' recent interacted items, attentive dynamic knowledge graph module learns dynamic weights for each pretrained KG embedding, and then utilizes top-k layer and parallel-based aggregation layer to effectively aggregate useful information from multi-hop neighbors. Sequential process module combines a user's history interactions and processed current interactions, and employs sequential models over them to get final user representations. Prediction module predicts the clicking probability using final user representation and target item representation. We conduct experiments on a public dataset, finding that ADKGN significantly outperforms state-of-the-art solutions.
