> Implementing ranking predictions for ALS
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-4712
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4712
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Machine Learning Library
> Reporter: Domokos Miklós Kelen
> Assignee: Gábor Hermann
>
> We started working on implementing ranking predictions for recommender
> systems. Ranking prediction means that beside predicting scores for user-item
> pairs, the recommender system is able to recommend a top K list for the users.
> Details:
> In practice, this would mean finding the K items for a particular user with
> the highest predicted rating. It should be possible also to specify whether
> to exclude the already seen items from a particular user's toplist. (See for
> example the 'exclude_known' setting of [Graphlab Create's ranking
> factorization
> recommender|https://turi.com/products/create/docs/generated/graphlab.recommender.ranking_factorization_recommender.RankingFactorizationRecommender.recommend.html#graphlab.recommender.ranking_factorization_recommender.RankingFactorizationRecommender.recommend]
> ).
> The output of the topK recommendation function could be in the form of
> {{DataSet[(Int,Int,Int)]}}, meaning (user, item, rank), similar to Graphlab
> Create's output. However, this is arguable: follow up work includes
> implementing ranking recommendation evaluation metrics (such as precision@k,
> recall@k, ndcg@k), similar to [Spark's
> implementations|https://spark.apache.org/docs/1.5.0/mllib-evaluation-metrics.html#ranking-systems].
> It would be beneficial if we were able to design the API such that it could
> be included in the proposed evaluation framework (see
> [5157|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-2157]), which makes it
> neccessary to consider the possible output type {{DataSet[(Int,
> Array[Int])]}} or {{DataSet[(Int, Array[(Int,Double)])]}} meaning (user,
> array of items), possibly including the predicted scores as well. See
> [4713|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4713] for details.
> Another question arising is whether to provide this function as a member of
> the ALS class, as a switch-kind of parameter to the ALS implementation
> (meaning the model is either a rating or a ranking recommender model) or in
> some other way.
