The increasing usage of e-commerce website has led to the emergence of Recommender System (RS) with the aim of personalizing the web content for each user. One of the successful techniques of RSs is Collaborative Filtering (CF) which makes recommendations for users based on what other like-mind users had preferred. However, as the world enter Big Data era, CF has faced some challenges such as: scalability, sparsity and cold start. Thus, new approaches that overcome the existing problems have been studied such as Singular Value Decomposition (SVD). This chapter surveys the literature of RSs, reviews the current state of RSs with the main concerns surrounding them due to Big Data, investigates thoroughly SVD and provides an implementation to it using Apache Hadoop and Spark. This is intended to validate the applicability of, existing contributions to the field of, SVD-based RSs as well as validated the effectiveness of Hadoop and spark in developing large-scale systems. The results proved the scalability of SVD-based RS and its applicability to Big Data.

Subject. The article discusses the financial behavior of households, and financial decisions. Objectives. I model patterns of households' financial behavior, referring the impact of stress factors on financial decisions. Methods. The financial behavior was analyzed through approaches proposed by D. Kahneman, A. Tversky and R. Thaler. However, instead of experiments, I rely upon surveys evaluating the financial literacy and behavior of people in the Sverdlovsk Oblast via social networks and conduct my research as a member of the task force of the Regions Center for Financial Literacy at the Ural State University of Economics. I took part in the preparation of questionnaires. Results. I proposed model patterns of financial behavior and substantiate what determines the behavioral pattern of people in distress. I also conclude that the impact of the COVID-19 on the financial and consumer behavior of people triggers destabilizing effects for the macroeconomic situation. Conclusions. Financial behavior modeling will help forecast financial and consumer shocks when the macroeconomic situation is destabilized, thus transforming the social policy.

Recently, deep learning models have been widely explored in recommender systems. Though having achieved remarkable success, the design of task-aware recommendation models usually requires manual feature engineering and architecture engineering from domain experts. To relieve those efforts, we explore the potential of neural architecture search (NAS) and introduce AMEIR for Automatic behavior Modeling, interaction Exploration and multi-layer perceptron (MLP) Investigation in the Recommender system. Specifically, AMEIR divides the complete recommendation models into three stages of behavior modeling, interaction exploration, MLP aggregation, and introduces a novel search space containing three tailored subspaces that cover most of the existing methods and thus allow for searching better models. To find the ideal architecture efficiently and effectively, AMEIR realizes the one-shot random search in recommendation progressively on the three stages and assembles the search results as the final outcome. The experiment over various scenarios reveals that AMEIR outperforms competitive baselines of elaborate manual design and leading algorithmic complex NAS methods with lower model complexity and comparable time cost, indicating efficacy, efficiency, and robustness of the proposed method.
