We have surpassed 10k stars!
Microsoft Recommenders repository has reached 10k stars and has become the most starred open-source recommender system project on GitHub.
Many thanks and congratulations to all the contributors to this repository! More advanced algorithms and best practices are yet to come!
We have a new release Recommenders 0.5.0!
It comes with lots of bug fixes, optimizations and 3 new algorithms, GeoIMC, Standard VAE and Multinomial VAE. We also added tools to facilitate the use of Microsoft News dataset (MIND). In addition, we published our KDD2020 tutorial where we built a recommender of COVID papers using Microsoft Academic Graph.
We also changed the default branch from master to main. Now when you download the repo, you will get main branch.
Leaderboard Reopen!
Microsoft News Recommendation Competition Winners Announced
Congratulations to all participants and winners of the Microsoft News Recommendation Competition! In the last two months, over 200 participants from more than 90 institutions in 19 countries and regions joined the competition and collectively advanced the state of the art of news recommendation.
The competition is based on the recently released MIND dataset, an open, large-scale English news dataset with impression logs. Details of the dataset are available at this ACL paper.
With the competition successfully closed, the leaderboard is now reopn. Want to see if you can grab the top spot? Get familiar with the news recommendation scenario. Then dive into some baselines such as DKN, LSTUR, NAML, NPA and NRMS and start hacking!
