Recommendation model combining review’s feature and rating graph convolutional representation by Hailin FENG, Xiao ZHANG, Tongcun LIU

“…In order to fully exploit the effective information of the ratings and further investigate the importance of the review, a recommendation model combining review’s feature and rating graph convolutional representation was proposed.Graph convolutional neural network was used to learn the representation of user and item from the ratings data.Combining with text convolutional features, attention mechanism was utilized to distinguish the importance of the review.Finally, the representation learned from the review and the rating data was fused by the hidden factor model.The experimental results on Amazon’s public data showed that the proposed model significantly outperformed the traditional approaches, proving the effectiveness of the proposed model.…”

Approximate Iteration Algorithm with Error Estimate for Fixed Point of Nonexpansive Mappings by Yongfu Su

“…The purpose of this article is to present a general viscosity iteration process {xn} which defined by xn+1=(I-αnA)Txn+βnγf(xn)+(αn-βn)xn and to study the convergence of {xn}, where T is a nonexpansive mapping and A is a strongly positive linear operator, if {αn}, {βn} satisfy appropriate conditions, then iteration sequence {xn} converges strongly to the unique solution x*∈f(T) of variational inequality 〈(A−γf)x*,x−x*〉≥0, for all x∈f(T). …”
