Time-aware Path Reasoning on Knowledge Graph for Recommendation
Yuyue Zhao, Xiang Wang, Jiawei Chen, Yashen Wang, Wei Tang, Xiangnan He, Haiyong Xie
Reasoning on knowledge graph (KG) has been studied for explainable recommendation due to it's ability of providing explicit explanations. However, current KG-based explainable recommendation methods unfortunately ignore the temporal information (such as purchase time, recommend time, etc.), which may result in unsuitable explanations. In this work, we propose a novel Time-aware Path reasoning for Recommendation (TPRec for short) method, which leverages the potential of temporal information to offer better recommendation with plausible explanations. First, we present an efficient time-aware interaction relation extraction component to construct collaborative knowledge graph with time-aware interactions (TCKG for short), and then introduce a novel time-aware path reasoning method for recommendation. We conduct extensive experiments on three real-world datasets. The results demonstrate that the proposed TPRec could successfully employ TCKG to achieve substantial gains and improve the quality of explainable recommendation.
