In an instant search setting such as Netflix Search where results are returned in response to every keystroke, determining how a partial query maps onto broad classes of relevant entities orfacets --- such as videos, talent, and genres --- can facilitate a better understanding of the underlying objective of that query. Such a query-to-facet mapping system has a multitude of applications. It can help improve the quality of search results, drive meaningful result organization, and can be leveraged to establish trust by being transparent with Netflix members when they search for an entity that is not available on the service. By anticipating the relevant facets with each keystroke entry, the system can also better guide the experience within a search session. When aggregated across queries, the facets can reveal interesting patterns of member interest. A key challenge for building such a system is to judiciously balance lexical similarity with behavioral relevance. In this paper, we present a high level overview of a Query Facet Mapping system that we have developed at Netflix, describe its main components, provide evaluation results with real-world data, and outline several potential applications.]]>

In this talk, we will provide an overview of Deep Learning methods applied to personalization and search at Netflix. We will set the stage by describing the unique challenges faced at Netflix in the areas of recommendations and information retrieval. Then we will delve into how we leverage a blend of traditional algorithms and emergent deep learning methods and new types of embeddings, especially hyperbolic space embeddings, to address these challenges. ]]>

Recsys 2015: Making Meaningful Restaurant Recommendations at OpenTable /slideshow/recsys-2015-making-meaningful-restaurant-recommendations-at-opentable/53085817 recsys2015-150922223205-lva1-app6891
At OpenTable, recommendations play a key role in connecting diners with restaurants. The act of recommending a restaurant to a diner relies heavily on aligning everything we know about the restaurant with everything we can infer about the diner. Our methods go beyond using the diner-restaurant interaction history as the sole input — we use click and search data, the metadata of restaurants, as well as insights gleaned from reviews, together with any contextual information to make meaningful recommendations. In this talk, I will highlight the main aspects of our recommendation stack built with Scala using Apache Spark.]]>
