这学期选了一门名叫《web智能与社会计算》的课,老师最后偷懒,最后的课程project作业直接让我们参加百度的一个电影推荐系统算法大赛,然后以在这个比赛中的成绩作为这门课大作业的成绩。不过,最终的结果并不需要百度官方的评估,只需要我们的截图即可(参看百度云平台),例如下面这个:
上面最重要的就是RMSE的数值,数值越小代表偏差越小,百度排行榜就是按值从小到大来排列的,这些人使用的可能是比SVD更好的算法,即使这样达到一定范围后再想进步就很难了,估计不会有人低于0.6这个值。
言归正传,下面来说说针对百度这个比赛如何如何用SVD来实现推荐系统,为了了解基本原理可以看看这篇文章:推荐系统相关算法(1):SVD (后面提到的三篇论文也值得一读)
本课程的要求是只完成任务一即可,做任务一的时候只需要用到两个数据集,一个是训练数据training_set,一个是待预测的数据predict,百度的要求如下:
l 任务一
n training_set.txt用户评分数据共三列,从左到右依次为userId、movieId、rating。即用户id、电影id、该用户对该电影的评分。列之间以’\t’分隔,行之间以’\r\n’分隔。
n predict.txt为预测集合,共两列。从左到右依次是userId,movieId。即用户id,电影id.列之间以’\t’分隔,行之间以’\r\n’分隔。参赛者需要预测出第三列,即该用户对该电影的评分,作为第三列,并提交给评测平台。需要注意的是,参赛者最终提的predict.txt是三列,列之间以’\t’分隔,行之间以’\r\n’分隔。行之间的顺序不能乱,行的总数不能少。
下载下来以后发现数据并不是从0开始计数的,training_set格式如下:7245481 962729 4.0 7245481 356405 4.0 7245481 836383 4.0 7245481 284550 4.0 7245481 723581 4.0 7245481 827305 4.0 7245481 572786 4.0 7245481 473690 4.0 ..................... ..................... .....................

得到了小规模数据,修改svd.conf文件里面的值,这里avarageScore这个值需要自己计算后填入,userNum,itemNum是用户和电影数目的范围,后面几个值也并不是固定的,可以根据实际情况进行修改
3.579231 10000 10000 10 0.01 0.05 averageScore userNum itemNum factorNum learnRate regularization
预测数据其实就是矩阵的乘法运算,相比训练来说速度要快很多。这里我们参考上面那篇博客里面的代码,把训练和预测放在一起执行,最终代码如下:

预测结果作为一列输出到一个单独的文件,按照百度的要求需要把结果插入到预测集的最后一列,用python处理一下就好
fp1 = open('predict.txt') fp2 = open('prediction.txt') fp_out = open('file3.txt', 'w') for line1, line2 in zip(fp1, fp2): line1 = line1.strip() line2 = line2.strip() fp_out.write('{0}\t{1}\n'.format(line1, line2))

显然我们还能够让RMSE值再小一些,其实一般来说svd在训练的时候还需要有一个测试数据来验证训练的好坏,但百度没有给测试数据,这里我们也没弄,如果有测试数据训练的效果可能会好一些。同时在训练时迭代次数的选择也有技巧,选择太少或太多效果都可能不好,需要自己把握,我们这里只迭代了五次显然不够。svd.conf里面最后三个参数的选择应该还存在技巧。也许还存在其他一些改进的方法,例如考虑到用户之间的关系这些,不过那个处理起来就有点复杂了,任务二貌似就要考虑到这一点。
总的来说,利用SVD仅仅迭代五次就能有这样的结果确实让人惊讶,想法简单但结果却不错,看来简单的并不意外着是不好,一些问题的完美解决往往蕴含在简单之中。
