1. Download and extract the MovieLens-1M dataset from http://files.grouplens.org/datasets/movielens/ml-1m.zip into the current directory.
2. Run python process_movielens1m.py ./ml-1m ./data_processed. Replace ml-1m with the directory you put the .dat files, and replace data_processed with any path you wish to put the output files.

1. Download and extract the Nowplaying-rs dataset from https://zenodo.org/record/3248543/files/nowplayingrs.zip?download=1 into the current directory.
2. Run python process_nowplaying_rs.py ./nowplaying_rs_dataset ./data_processed

This model returns items that are K nearest neighbors of the latest item the user has interacted. The distance between two items are measured by Euclidean distance of item embeddings, which are learned as outputs of PinSAGE.

python model.py data_processed --num-epochs 300 --num-workers 2 --device cuda:0 --hidden-dims 64

The implementation here also assigns a learnable vector to each item. If your hidden state size is so large that the learnable vectors cannot fit into GPU, use this script for sparse embedding update (written with torch.optim.SparseAdam) instead:

python model_sparse.py data_processed --num-epochs 300 --num-workers 2 --device cuda:0 --hidden-dims 1024

Note that since the embedding update is done on CPU, it will be significantly slower than doing everything on GPU.

The HITS@10 is 0.01241, compared to 0.01220 with SLIM with the same dimensionality.

The implementation here is different from what being described in the paper:

1. The paper described a supervised setting where the authors have a ground truth set of which items are relevant. However, in traditional recommender system datasets we don't have such labels other than which items are interacted by which users (as well as the user/item's own features). Therefore, I adapted PinSAGE to an unsupervised setting where I predict whether two items are cointeracted by the same user.
2. PinSAGE paper explicitly stated that the items do not learnable embeddings of nodes, but directly express the embeddings as a function of node features. While this is reasonable for rich datasets like Pinterest's where images and texts are rich enough to distinguish the items from each other, it is unfortunately not the case for traditional recommender system datasets like MovieLens or Nowplaying-RS where we only have a bunch of categorical or numeric variables. I found adding a learnable embedding for each item still helpful for those datasets.
3. The PinSAGE paper directly pass the GNN output to an MLP and make the result the final item representation. Here, I'm adding the GNN output with the node's own learnable embedding as the final item representation instead.
