fastFM: A Library for Factorization Machines

4 May 2015arXiv:1505.00641archive 2025-07-28

Immanuel Bayer

Factorization Machines (FM) are only used in a narrow range of applications and are not part of the standard toolbox of machine learning models. This is a pity, because even though FMs are recognized as being very successful for recommender system type applications they are a general model to deal with sparse and high dimensional features. Our Factorization Machine implementation provides easy access to many solvers and supports regression, classification and ranking tasks. Such an implementation simplifies the use of FM's for a wide field of applications. This implementation has the potential to improve our understanding of the FM model and drive new development.
