推荐系统

数据模型设计

1. 核心实体

• Rating 关系属性：

  • score: 评分值
  • timestamp: 评分时间

• Action 关系属性：

  • timestamp: 行为时间
  • duration: 行为持续时间

4. 数据模型示例

// 用户节点
(:User {id: 1, name: 'John', age: 30, gender: 'Male', location: 'New York'})

// 物品节点
(:Item {id: 1, name: 'The Matrix', description: 'A sci-fi action film', price: 19.99, release_date: '1999-03-31', average_rating: 4.5})

// 类别节点
(:Category {id: 1, name: 'Sci-Fi'})

// 标签节点
(:Tag {id: 1, name: 'Action'})

// 关系
(:User {id: 1})-[:RATED {score: 5, timestamp: '2023-01-01'}]->(:Item {id: 1})
(:User {id: 1})-[:PURCHASED {timestamp: '2023-01-01'}]->(:Item {id: 1})
(:Item {id: 1})-[:BELONGS_TO]->(:Category {id: 1})
(:Item {id: 1})-[:HAS_TAG]->(:Tag {id: 1})
(:Item {id: 1})-[:SIMILAR_TO {score: 0.9}]->(:Item {id: 2})

协同过滤

1. 基于用户的协同过滤

// 查找与目标用户有相似评分行为的用户
MATCH (u:User {id: 1})-[:RATED]->(i:Item)<-[:RATED]-(other:User)
WHERE u <> other
WITH other, count(i) AS common_items, sum(abs(u.rating - other.rating)) AS rating_difference
WHERE common_items > 3
WITH other, 1.0 / (1.0 + rating_difference) AS similarity
ORDER BY similarity DESC
LIMIT 10

// 查找相似用户喜欢但目标用户未评分的物品
MATCH (other)-[:RATED {score: >4}]->(recommended:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(recommended)
RETURN recommended.name, count(*) AS recommendation_count
ORDER BY recommendation_count DESC
LIMIT 10

2. 基于物品的协同过滤

// 查找与目标用户喜欢的物品相似的物品
MATCH (u:User {id: 1})-[:RATED {score: >4}]->(i:Item)-[:SIMILAR_TO]->(similar:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(similar)
RETURN similar.name, avg(i.similarity) AS similarity_score
ORDER BY similarity_score DESC
LIMIT 10

3. 矩阵分解

// 使用 Neo4j Graph Data Science 库进行矩阵分解
CALL gds.graph.create('ratingGraph', ['User', 'Item'], {
  RATED: {
    type: 'RATED',
    properties: 'score',
    orientation: 'UNDIRECTED'
  }
})

CALL gds.alpha.linkprediction.adamicAdar.stream('ratingGraph', {
  sourceNodeFilter: 'User',
  targetNodeFilter: 'Item',
  relationshipTypes: ['RATED']
})
YIELD sourceNodeId, targetNodeId, score
MATCH (u:User) WHERE id(u) = sourceNodeId
MATCH (i:Item) WHERE id(i) = targetNodeId
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(i)
RETURN u.name, i.name, score
ORDER BY score DESC
LIMIT 10

CALL gds.graph.drop('ratingGraph')

基于路径的推荐

1. 路径查找

// 查找用户之间的路径
MATCH path = (u:User {id: 1})-[:RATED]->(i:Item)<-[:RATED]-(other:User)-[:RATED]->(recommended:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(recommended)
RETURN recommended.name, count(path) AS path_count
ORDER BY path_count DESC
LIMIT 10

2. 加权路径

// 基于加权路径的推荐
MATCH path = (u:User {id: 1})-[:RATED {score: >3}]->(i:Item)<-[:RATED {score: >3}]-(other:User)-[:RATED {score: >3}]->(recommended:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(recommended)
WITH recommended, sum(1.0 / length(path)) AS score
RETURN recommended.name, score
ORDER BY score DESC
LIMIT 10

3. 多步路径

// 多步路径推荐
MATCH path = (u:User {id: 1})-[*2..3]->(recommended:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(recommended)
  AND all(rel IN relationships(path) WHERE type(rel) IN ['RATED', 'PURCHASED', 'VIEWED'])
RETURN recommended.name, count(path) AS path_count
ORDER BY path_count DESC
LIMIT 10

实时推荐

1. 基于最近行为

// 基于用户最近的浏览行为推荐
MATCH (u:User {id: 1})-[:VIEWED]->(i:Item)
WITH u, i
ORDER BY i.timestamp DESC
LIMIT 5

MATCH (i)-[:SIMILAR_TO]->(recommended:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:VIEWED]->(recommended)
  AND NOT (u)-[:PURCHASED]->(recommended)
RETURN recommended.name, avg(i.similarity) AS similarity_score
ORDER BY similarity_score DESC
LIMIT 10

2. 基于上下文

// 基于时间上下文推荐
MATCH (u:User {id: 1})
WITH u, hour(datetime()) AS current_hour

// 根据时间段推荐不同类型的内容
MATCH (c:Category)
WHERE (current_hour >= 6 AND current_hour < 12 AND c.name = 'Breakfast') OR
      (current_hour >= 12 AND current_hour < 18 AND c.name = 'Lunch') OR
      (current_hour >= 18 AND current_hour < 24 AND c.name = 'Dinner') OR
      (current_hour >= 0 AND current_hour < 6 AND c.name = 'Snack')

MATCH (c)<-[:BELONGS_TO]-(recommended:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:PURCHASED]->(recommended)
RETURN recommended.name, c.name AS category
ORDER BY recommended.average_rating DESC
LIMIT 10

3. 增量更新

// 增量更新推荐
// 当用户产生新行为时，更新推荐
MATCH (u:User {id: 1})-[:RATED {score: 5}]->(i:Item)

// 更新物品之间的相似性
MATCH (i)-[:SIMILAR_TO]->(other:Item)
SET other.similarity = other.similarity + 0.1

// 更新用户的推荐列表
MATCH (u)-[:RATED]->(i:Item)-[:SIMILAR_TO]->(recommended:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(recommended)
WITH recommended, count(*) AS score
ORDER BY score DESC
LIMIT 10
RETURN recommended.name, score

混合推荐策略

1. 加权混合

// 基于用户的协同过滤
MATCH (u:User {id: 1})-[:RATED]->(i:Item)<-[:RATED]-(other:User)
WHERE u <> other
WITH other, count(i) AS common_items
WHERE common_items > 3
MATCH (other)-[:RATED {score: >4}]->(rec1:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(rec1)
WITH u, collect(DISTINCT rec1) AS user_based_recs

// 基于物品的协同过滤
MATCH (u)-[:RATED {score: >4}]->(i:Item)-[:SIMILAR_TO]->(rec2:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(rec2)
WITH u, user_based_recs, collect(DISTINCT rec2) AS item_based_recs

// 基于内容的推荐
MATCH (u)-[:RATED {score: >4}]->(i:Item)-[:HAS_TAG]->(t:Tag)<-[:HAS_TAG]-(rec3:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(rec3)
WITH u, user_based_recs, item_based_recs, collect(DISTINCT rec3) AS content_based_recs

// 合并推荐结果
WITH u, 
     [rec IN user_based_recs | {item: rec, score: 0.4}] +
     [rec IN item_based_recs | {item: rec, score: 0.4}] +
     [rec IN content_based_recs | {item: rec, score: 0.2}] AS all_recs

// 去重并排序
UNWIND all_recs AS rec
WITH rec.item AS item, sum(rec.score) AS total_score
ORDER BY total_score DESC
LIMIT 10
RETURN item.name, total_score

2. 特征融合

// 提取用户特征
MATCH (u:User {id: 1})
WITH u, u.age AS age, u.gender AS gender, u.location AS location

// 提取物品特征
MATCH (i:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(i)
WITH u, i, age, gender, location,
     [(i)-[:BELONGS_TO]->(c:Category) | c.name] AS categories,
     [(i)-[:HAS_TAG]->(t:Tag) | t.name] AS tags

// 计算特征相似度
MATCH (u)-[:RATED {score: >4}]->(liked:Item)
WITH u, i, age, gender, location, categories, tags,
     [(liked)-[:BELONGS_TO]->(c:Category) | c.name] AS liked_categories,
     [(liked)-[:HAS_TAG]->(t:Tag) | t.name] AS liked_tags

// 计算类别相似度
WITH u, i, age, gender, location, categories, tags,
     size([c IN categories WHERE c IN liked_categories]) AS category_similarity,
     size([t IN tags WHERE t IN liked_tags]) AS tag_similarity

// 计算总相似度
WITH u, i, (category_similarity + tag_similarity) AS total_similarity
ORDER BY total_similarity DESC
LIMIT 10
RETURN i.name, total_similarity

3. 集成学习

// 使用多种推荐算法，然后集成结果

// 算法 1: 协同过滤
MATCH (u:User {id: 1})-[:RATED]->(i:Item)<-[:RATED]-(other:User)-[:RATED {score: >4}]->(rec1:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(rec1)
WITH u, collect(DISTINCT rec1) AS cf_recs

// 算法 2: 内容过滤
MATCH (u)-[:RATED {score: >4}]->(i:Item)-[:HAS_TAG]->(t:Tag)<-[:HAS_TAG]-(rec2:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(rec2)
WITH u, cf_recs, collect(DISTINCT rec2) AS content_recs

// 算法 3: 流行度
MATCH (rec3:Item)
WHERE NOT (u)-[:RATED]->(rec3)
WITH u, cf_recs, content_recs, rec3
ORDER BY rec3.average_rating DESC
LIMIT 10
WITH u, cf_recs, content_recs, collect(rec3) AS popular_recs

// 集成结果
WITH u, 
     [rec IN cf_recs | {item: rec, score: 0.5}] +
     [rec IN content_recs | {item: rec, score: 0.3}] +
     [rec IN popular_recs | {item: rec, score: 0.2}] AS all_recs

// 去重并排序
UNWIND all_recs AS rec
WITH rec.item AS item, sum(rec.score) AS total_score
ORDER BY total_score DESC
LIMIT 10
RETURN item.name, total_score

推荐系统评估

1. 评估指标

• 准确率（Precision）：推荐列表中相关物品的比例
• 召回率（Recall）：相关物品中被推荐的比例
• F1 分数：准确率和召回率的调和平均
• 平均准确率（MAP）：平均准确率
• NDCG：归一化折扣累积增益

2. 评估方法

• 离线评估：使用历史数据评估
• 在线评估：A/B 测试
• 用户反馈：收集用户反馈

3. 评估示例

// 离线评估
// 分割数据集为训练集和测试集
MATCH (u:User)-[r:RATED]->(i:Item)
WITH u, collect({item: i, rating: r.score}) AS ratings
WHERE size(ratings) > 5
// 随机选择 80% 作为训练集，20% 作为测试集
WITH u, ratings, 
     [r IN ratings WHERE rand() < 0.8] AS train_ratings,
     [r IN ratings WHERE rand() >= 0.8] AS test_ratings

// 训练推荐模型
// ...

// 生成推荐
// ...

// 评估推荐结果
WITH u, test_ratings, recommended_items
WITH u, 
     [t IN test_ratings WHERE t.rating >= 4] AS relevant_items,
     recommended_items
WITH u, 
     size([r IN recommended_items WHERE r IN [t.item FOR t IN relevant_items]]) AS true_positives,
     size(recommended_items) AS total_recommended,
     size(relevant_items) AS total_relevant

// 计算准确率和召回率
WITH u, 
     true_positives * 1.0 / total_recommended AS precision,
     true_positives * 1.0 / total_relevant AS recall

// 计算平均准确率和召回率
RETURN avg(precision) AS avg_precision, avg(recall) AS avg_recall
