Abstract

In order to solve the problem that the existing sequence recommendation algorithms only use short-term sequential behaviors to make recommendations, but fail to fully consider the long-term preference of users and the deeper relationship between items, this paper proposed a sequential recommendation algorithm CSALSR that it integrated self-attention mechanism and long-term and short-term preference. This model embedded the user and the item into the vector respectively, and regarded the pairwise encoding of the item in short-term interaction sequence as a three-way tensor. Then, it added self-attention mechanism on the three-way tensor and used convolutional neural network to extract the deeper connection between items from the order pattern of users. At the same time, considering the long-term preference of users, it took the embedding of similar users as a supplement to enhance the user representation. Experimental results show that the proposed method on MovieLens-1M and Gowalla data sets is superior to other methods in precision@N, recall@N and MAP.
