Online-updating regularized kernel matrix factorization models for large-scale recommender systems
Steffen Rendle, Lars Schmidt-Thieme · 2008
Regularized matrix factorization models are known to generate high quality rating predictions for recommender systems. One of the major drawbacks of matrix factorization is that once computed, the model is static. For real-world applications dynamic updating a model is one of the most important tasks. Especially when ratings on new users or new items come in, updating the feature matrices is crucial.
