Abstract

Existing book recommendation methods often overlook the rich information contained in the comment text, which can limit their effectiveness. Therefore, a cross-domain recommender system for literary books that leverages multi-head self-attention interaction and knowledge transfer learning is proposed. Firstly, the BERT model is employed to obtain word vectors, and CNN is used to extract user and project features. Then, higher-level features are captured through the fusion of multi-head self-attention and addition pooling. Finally, knowledge transfer learning is introduced to conduct joint modeling between different domains by simultaneously extracting domain-specific features and shared features between domains. On the Amazon dataset, the proposed model achieved MAE and MSE of 0.801 and 1.058 in the “movie-book” recommendation task and 0.787 and 0.805 in the “music-book” recommendation task, respectively. This performance is significantly superior to other advanced recommendation models. Moreover, the proposed model also has good universality on the Chinese dataset.
