Our work aims to address some issues to make MF a practically useful technique for large-scale cases. The first issue is the learning rate of stochastic gradient (SG) methods for matrix factorization. Currently, stochastic gradient methods are one of the most important training methods for MF, but how to effectively adjust the learning rate in SG remains a challenging issue. We propose a useful scheme to adjust the learning rate so that the convergence of stochastic gradient methods for MF is improved. Second, MF users do not benefit from the recent advances of shared-memory systems with multi-core CPUs because most existing packages do not support parallel training. Based on our recently developed parallel SG algorithms, we create a new MF library LIBMF for public use. LIBMF can solve several MF problems in a unified way. In the third part of this thesis, we investigate an extension of MF called field-aware factorization machine (FFM). It is useful for classification problems with highly sparse data.1110490 bytesapplication/pdf論文使用權限: 同意有償授權(權利金給回饋學校)矩陣分解隨機梯度法平行計算分解機場域分解機matrix factorizationstochastic gradient methodsparellel computationfactorization machinefield-aware factorization machinethesis10.6342/NTU201603609http://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/275789/1/ntu-105-D01944006-1.pdf
