"Modeling Variational Anchoring Effect for Recommender Systems"
Users generally have a tendency to rely on numerical information when judging the recommended items, which refers to a classic psychological concept, anchoring effect. Recent studies have empirically proven that the anchoring effect can mislead users to purchase items that are not liked in principle, which will bring bias and noise. In this talk, we introduce Variational Anchoring Effect Encoder to model the anchoring effect and mitigate the anchoring bias for recommender systems.
