Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
protected void	eStep() parameters estimation: used in the training phase
protected void	estimateParams() estimate the model parameters
protected boolean	isConverged(int iter) Post each iteration, we do things: print debug information check if converged if not, adjust learning rate
protected void	mStep() update the hyper-parameters
protected double	perplexity(int user, int item, double rating)
protected double	predict(int userIdx, int itemIdx) predict a specific rating for user userIdx on item itemIdx, note that the prediction is not bounded.
protected void	readoutParams() read out parameters for each iteration
protected void	setup() setup init member method

Method Detail

setup

protected void setup()
              throws LibrecException

Description copied from class: ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

setup init member method

Overrides:

setup in class ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

Throws:

LibrecException - if error occurs during setting up

eStep

protected void eStep()

Description copied from class: ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

parameters estimation: used in the training phase

Specified by:

eStep in class ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

mStep

protected void mStep()

Description copied from class: ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

update the hyper-parameters

Specified by:

mStep in class ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

readoutParams

protected void readoutParams()

Description copied from class: ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

read out parameters for each iteration

Overrides:

readoutParams in class ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

estimateParams

protected void estimateParams()

estimate the model parameters

Overrides:

estimateParams in class ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

predict

protected double predict(int userIdx,
             int itemIdx)
                  throws LibrecException

Description copied from class: AbstractRecommender

predict a specific rating for user userIdx on item itemIdx, note that the prediction is not bounded. It is useful for building models with no need to bound predictions.

Specified by:

predict in class AbstractRecommender

Parameters:

userIdx - user index

itemIdx - item index

Returns:

predictive rating for user userIdx on item itemIdx without bound

Throws:

LibrecException - if error occurs during predicting

isConverged

protected boolean isConverged(int iter)

Description copied from class: AbstractRecommender

Post each iteration, we do things:

1. print debug information
2. check if converged
3. if not, adjust learning rate

Overrides:

isConverged in class ProbabilisticGraphicalRecommender

Parameters:

iter - current iteration

Returns:

boolean: true if it is converged; false otherwise

perplexity

protected double perplexity(int user,
                int item,
                double rating)
