Abstract
A processing device of an information processing system is operative to obtain observed feedback data, to construct a model that accounts for both the observed feedback data and additional feedback data that is missing from the observed feedback data, to optimize one or more parameters of the model using a training objective function, and to generate a list of recommended items for a given user based on the optimized model. In illustrative embodiments, the missing feedback data comprises data that is missing not at random (MNAR), and the model comprises a matrix factorization model. The processing device may implement a recommender system comprising a training module coupled to a recommendation module.
