Multi-stakeholder News Recommendation Using Hypergraph Learning
AbstractRecommender systems are meant to fulfil user preferences. Nevertheless, there are multiple examples where users are not the only stakeholder in a recommendation platform. For instance, in news aggregator websites apart from readers, one can consider magazines (news agencies) or authors as other stakeholders. A multi-stakeholder recommender system generates a ranked list of items taking into account the preferences of multiple stakeholders. In this study, news recommendation is handled as a hypergraph ranking task, where relations between multiple types of objects and stakeholders are modeled in a unified hypergraph. The obtained results indicate that ranking on hypergraphs can be utilized as a natural multi-stakeholder recommender system that is able to adapt recommendations based on the importance of stakeholders.
