Bayesian model predicts fashion size recommendations and returns.
Deep learning predicts fit for fashion e-commerce.
Outfittery uses machine learning to help stylists choose appropriate fashion items.
Fashion preference is a fuzzy concept that depends on customer taste, prevailing norms in fashion product/style, henceforth used interchangeably, and a customer's perception of utility or fashionability, yet fashion e-retail relies on algorithmically generated search and recommendation systems that process structured d…
In this paper, we describe a solution to tackle a common set of challenges in e-commerce, which arise from the fact that new products are continually being added to the catalogue. The challenges involve properly personalising the customer experience, forecasting demand and planning the product range. We argue that the …
Automates size normalization for fashion items.
RecoBERT uses a language model to recommend items from catalogs.
New deep learning model for matching sets of items, preserving exchangeability.
Point-of-Interest (POI) recommender systems play a vital role in people's lives by recommending unexplored POIs to users and have drawn extensive attention from both academia and industry. Despite their value, however, they still suffer from the challenges of capturing complicated user preferences and fine-grained user…
JIMA uses multi-level preference data to recommend composite items.
We consider the online one-class collaborative filtering (CF) problem that consists of recommending items to users over time in an online fashion based on positive ratings only. This problem arises when users respond only occasionally to a recommendation with a positive rating, and never with a negative one. We study t…
In order to help undergraduate students towards successfully completing their degrees, developing tools that can assist students during the course selection process is a significant task in the education domain. The optimal set of courses for each student should include courses that help him/her graduate in a timely fa…
GraphSAIL updates GNN-based recommender models incrementally to reduce computation time and improve frequent updates.
Proposes a model encoder to recommend deep learning architectures for unknown datasets.
A new model predicts fashion demand 6-12 months ahead, boosting retailer profits.
To alleviate sparsity and cold start problem of collaborative filtering based recommender systems, researchers and engineers usually collect attributes of users and items, and design delicate algorithms to exploit these additional information. In general, the attributes are not isolated but connected with each other, w…
Deep Bayesian Bandits improve personalized ads by balancing exploration and exploitation.
We learn hierarchical slate representations for collaborative filtering.
HyperSTAR optimizes deep network hyperparameters for specific tasks.
ART automates synthetic biology design with machine learning.
A new method reduces embedding size for efficient recommendation systems.
Although modern recommendation systems can exploit the structure in users' item feedback, most are powerless in the face of new users who provide no structure for them to exploit. In this paper we introduce ImplicitCE, an algorithm for recommending items to new users during their sign-up flow. ImplicitCE works by trans…
Combining items of clothing into an outfit is a major task in fashion retail. Recommending sets of items that are compatible with a particular seed item is useful for providing users with guidance and inspiration, but is currently a manual process that requires expert stylists and is therefore not scalable or easy to p…
Proposes PKG embedding for e-commerce products.
To provide more accurate, diverse, and explainable recommendation, it is compulsory to go beyond modeling user-item interactions and take side information into account. Traditional methods like factorization machine (FM) cast it as a supervised learning problem, which assumes each interaction as an independent instance…
Model-based methods for recommender systems have been studied extensively in recent years. In systems with large corpus, however, the calculation cost for the learnt model to predict all user-item preferences is tremendous, which makes full corpus retrieval extremely difficult. To overcome the calculation barriers, mod…
The fashion industry is establishing its presence on a number of visual-centric social media like Instagram. This creates an interesting clash as fashion brands that have traditionally practiced highly creative and editorialized image marketing now have to engage with people on the platform that epitomizes impromptu, r…
xDeepInt learns both vector-wise and bit-wise feature interactions.
This study examines how fashion consumption affects self-confidence and buying behavior in Iranian consumers.
With the proliferation of social media, fashion inspired from celebrities, reputed designers as well as fashion influencers has shortened the cycle of fashion design and manufacturing. However, with the explosion of fashion related content and large number of user generated fashion photos, it is an arduous task for fas…
Many tasks such as retrieval and recommendations can significantly benefit from structuring the data, commonly in a hierarchical way. To achieve this through annotations of high dimensional data such as images or natural text can be significantly labor intensive. We propose an approach for uncovering the hierarchical s…
We present Fashion-MNIST, a new dataset comprising of 28x28 grayscale images of 70,000 fashion products from 10 categories, with 7,000 images per category. The training set has 60,000 images and the test set has 10,000 images. Fashion-MNIST is intended to serve as a direct drop-in replacement for the original MNIST dat…
Overconfidence and underconfidence in machine learning classifiers is measured by calibration: the degree to which the probabilities predicted for each class match the accuracy of the classifier on that prediction. How one measures calibration remains a challenge: expected calibration error, the most popular metric, ha…
Robotic clothing manipulation improved with fashion image analysis techniques.
We use customer demand data for fashion articles on Myntra, and derive a fashionability or style quotient, which represents customer demand for the stylistic content of a fashion article, decoupled with its commercials (price, offers, etc.). We demonstrate learning for assortment planning in fashion that would aim to k…
HERMES model predicts nonstationary fashion trends using social media data.
Paper generates high-resolution fashion images based on body pose.
MNIST and Fashion MNIST are extremely popular for testing in the machine learning space. Fashion MNIST improves on MNIST by introducing a harder problem, increasing the diversity of testing sets, and more accurately representing a modern computer vision task. In order to increase the data quality of FashionMNIST, this …

DeepFair improves fairness in recommender systems without sacrificing accuracy.
We introduce a new dataset of 293,008 high definition (1360 x 1360 pixels) fashion images paired with item descriptions provided by professional stylists. Each item is photographed from a variety of angles. We provide baseline results on 1) high-resolution image generation, and 2) image generation conditioned on the gi…
Framework learns item representations from text data for complementary and similar items.
Machine learning models learn what we teach them to learn. Machine learning is at the heart of recommender systems. If a machine learning model is trained on biased data, the resulting recommender system may reflect the biases in its recommendations. Biases arise at different stages in a recommender system, from existi…
The paper aims to define a benchmark for deep learning recommendation models.
