The code has been tested running under Python 3.7.6. The required packages are as follows:
- pytorch == 1.7.0
- numpy == 1.20.2
- scipy == 1.6.3
- sklearn == 0.24.1
- prettytable == 2.1.0
The instruction of commands has been clearly stated in the codes (see the parser function in utils/parser.py). Important argument:
K
- It specifies the number of negative instances in K-pair loss. Note that when K=1 (by default), the K-pair loss will degenerate into the BPR pairwise loss.
n_negs
- It specifies the size of negative candidate set when using MixGCF.
ns
- It indicates the type of negative sample method. Here we provide two options: rns and mixgcf.
