Capturing users' precise preferences is of great importance in various
recommender systems (eg., e-commerce platforms), which is the basis of how to
present personalized interesting product lists to individual users. In spite of
significant progress has been made to consider relations between users and
items, most of the existing recommendation techniques solely focus on singular
type of user-item interactions. However, user-item interactive behavior is
often exhibited with multi-type (e.g., page view, add-to-favorite and purchase)
and inter-dependent in nature. The overlook of multiplex behavior relations can
hardly recognize the multi-modal contextual signals across different types of
interactions, which limit the feasibility of current recommendation methods. To
tackle the above challenge, this work proposes a Memory-Augmented Transformer
Networks (MATN), to enable the recommendation with multiplex behavioral
relational information, and joint modeling of type-specific behavioral context
and type-wise behavior inter-dependencies, in a fully automatic manner. In our
MATN framework, we first develop a transformer-based multi-behavior relation
encoder, to make the learned interaction representations be reflective of the
cross-type behavior relations. Furthermore, a memory attention network is
proposed to supercharge MATN capturing the contextual signals of different
types of behavior into the category-specific latent embedding space. Finally, a
cross-behavior aggregation component is introduced to promote the comprehensive
collaboration across type-aware interaction behavior representations, and
discriminate their inherent contributions in assisting recommendations.

该研究旨在解决当前推荐系统仅考虑用户与物品的单一交互类型，无法识别具有复合行为关系的交互信号的问题，通过提出使用记忆 - 增强变压器网络（MATN）的方法实现多重行为关系信息推荐。经过实验证明，该方法在两个基准数据集和真实世界的电子商务用户行为数据方面均取得了显著的改进。
