Abstract
In recommender systems, user reviews on items contain rich semantic information, which can express users’ preferences and item features. However, existing review-based recommendation methods either use the static word vector model or cannot effectively extract long sequence features in reviews, resulting in the limited ability of user feature expression. Furthermore, the impact of different or useless feature interactions between users and items on recommendation performance is ignored. Therefore, we propose an attentional factorization machine with review-based user–item interaction for recommendation (AFMRUI), which first leverages RoBERTa to obtain the embedding feature of each user/item review, and combines bidirectional gated recurrent units with attention network to highlight more useful information in both user and item reviews. Then we adopt AFM to learn user–item feature interactions to distinguish the importance of different user–item feature interactions and further to obtain more accurate rating prediction, so as to promote recommendation. Finally, we conducted performance evaluation on five real-world datasets. Experimental results on five datasets demonstrated that the proposed AFMRUI outperformed the state-of-the-art review-based methods regarding two commonly used evaluation metrics.
