Environments

requirements.txt - The codes can be successfully run with following packages in an Anaconda environment:

pandas==1.3.4
tqdm==4.62.3
pytorch==1.10.0
numpy==1.21.2
scikit-learn==0.23.2
cudatoolkit==10.2.89
python==3.9.7

Other settings with pytorch>=1.3.1 may also work.

Datasets

The processed datasets can be downloaded from Tsinghua Cloud or Google Drive, in which *.word_graph.pk is the generated word graph. (The codes for word graph construction are in ./src/preprocess for reference).

You should place the datasets in the ./dataset/. The tree structure of directories should look like:

.
├── dataset
│   ├── sogou
│   └── adressa-1w
└── src
    ├── data_readers
    ├── data_processors
    ├── modules
    ├── models
    ├── runners
    └── utils

Example to run the codes

• Some running commands can be found in ./command/command.py
• For example:

# WG4Rec on Sogou dataset
> cd WG4Rec/src/
> python main.py --model_name WG4RecSogou --dataset sogou --metrics ndcg@5,ndcg@10,hit@5,hit@10 --test_sample_n 99 --lr 0.001 --l2 1e-4 --sent_max 10 --sample_pop 100 --regenerate 0 --gpu 0
