Abstract
A network-based enterprise or other system that makes items available for selection to users may implement real-time updates to item recommendation models based on matrix factorization. An item recommendation model may be maintained that is generated from a singular value decomposition of a matrix indicating selections of items by users. A user-specific update to the item recommendation model may be calculated in real-time for a particular user such that the calculation may be performed without performing another singular value decomposition to generate an updated version of the item recommendation model. Item recommendations may then be made based on the user-specific update and the item recommendation model. In various embodiments, the item recommendations may be made in response to an indication or request for item recommendations for the particular user.
