RL-ISN

Overall description

• Here presents the code of RL-ISN. As the dataset is too big for GitHub, we upload two datasets (i.e., Hvideo and Hamazon) on Bitbucket: https://bitbucket.org/jinyuz1996/rl-isn-data/src/main/. You should download them before training the RL-ISN. The code is attached to our paper: " Reinforcement Learning-enhanced Shared-account Cross-domain Sequential Recommendation" (TKDE 2022) ". If you want to use our codes and datasets in your research, please cite our paper. Note that, our paper is still in the state of 'Early Access', if you want to see the preview version (on IEEE Xplore), please visit: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9802739.

   • The directory named Checkpoint is used to save the trained recommenders ,agents and joint-training models.
   • Note that, for different dataset (i.e., HVIDEO and HAMAZON), we set two different settings for the haper-parameters as 'ISN_parameters_Hamazon.py' and 'ISN_parameters_Hvideo.py'
