RecommenderSystem
This project is a neural recommendation system framework designed for building industrial-scale suggestion engines. It functions as a machine learning pipeline that implements candidate retrieval and multi-stage ranking models to suggest relevant items based on user behavior and preferences.
The framework utilizes a dual-tower retrieval engine to embed users and items into a shared vector space for fast similarity searches. It incorporates a recommendation diversity controller and a re-ranking mechanism to penalize redundancy, while a sequential user behavior model processes chronological action streams to capture evolving preferences and short-term intent.
The system covers the full recommendation lifecycle, including candidate retrieval engineering, ranking model optimization, and user behavior modeling. It also includes mechanisms for managing recommendation diversity and evaluating system performance through accuracy metrics and testing.
