"text": "Recommender systems (RSs) are useful for internet users who may find it hard to choose from the multitude of available products and services. RSs predict how likely the target user is to be interested in an item which might have been unknown to her. In this work, we consider book recommender systems, which could be useful in libraries, schools, and on e-learning portals. Nowadays, with the introduction of e-books, readers can access inexpensive resources with little effort. It was expected that the act of reading for pleasure would become widespread, but statistics demonstrate the opposite; it is declining, particularly among young people. 1 A number of studies have shown the benefits of reading. In a comparison between the well-being of 7,500 Canadian adult readers and non-readers, the former have been found statistically significantly more likely to report better health or mental health, to volunteer, and to feel strongly satisfied with life (Hill, 2013) . Fiction has been shown to stimulate profound social communication (Mar and Oatley, 2008) . Exposure to fiction correlates with a greater ability for empathy and social support (Mar et al., 2009) . It also has a lingering biological effect, notably in the connectivity of the brain (Berns et al., 2013) . It is therefore a worthwhile endeavor to deploy artificial intelligence techniques to spark people's interest in books by recommending the right type of books.",

"text": "There are two main types of traditional recommender systems: collaborative filtering (CF) and contentbased recommendation (CB). When a CF system predicts if a user likes a book, it relies on the ratings of all active users in the system. CF depends on a rating matrix which could be large and sparse, and that might lead to inferior recommendations. Sparsity occurs when items/users do not have enough ratings. It can be noticed in library records that many books are never checked out (as is, e.g., the case of 75% of the books in the library of Changsha University of Science and Technology (Yang et al., 2009) ). A few other problems face CF systems: new items which are difficult to recommend until enough ratings have been received, the long tail when most items are overlooked because of few very popular ones, shilling attack when items are rated as a way of promotion, and the gray sheep problem of users who have tastes entirely different from other users (Alharthi et al., 2017) .",

"text": "Content-based recommendation, on the other hand, relies on the content of items (e.g., a book's genre and author). It is a classifier that finds patterns in the target user's past reading preferences, and predicts future interests. CB does not require a rating matrix; that eliminates all the aforementioned issues with CF. A newly added book is recommended if it is similar to the target user's preferences. CB also makes recommendations that are interpretable (e.g., a book is recommended because the user tends to like a specific genre). However, it is difficult for CB to recommend items that have inadequate content. Another weakness, overspecialization, occurs when the system makes non-diverse recommendations (Alharthi et al., 2017) . Hybrid RSs can combine CF and CB to tackle such issues and enhance the recommendation accuracy.",

"text": "A content-based RS is proposed that analyzes the texts of books to learn users' reading interests. A survey on book recommender systems (Alharthi et al., 2017) describes only a few RSs that take the actual text of books into account. There is a lot of work that explores literary works, including automatic genre identification (Ardanuy and Sporleder, 2016) and learning the narrative structure (Elson et al., 2010) . It is quite surprising, then, that the analysis of the textual content of books to improve their recommendations is still quite limited. A user's reading preferences might be influenced by many elements specific to books. For example, recommendations given by the readers' advisory (a library service that suggests books to patrons) rely on multiple appeal factors. The factors are characterization, frame, language and writing style, pacing, special topics, storyline, and tone. To obtain information about books' appeal factors, librarians can subscribe (at a fee) to reader-advisory databases such as NoveList, established by professionals (Pera and Ng, 2014a) .",

"text": "In this paper, we focus on learning authors' writing styles in aid of book recommendation. Our book RS transfers information learned by an authorship identification (AuthId) classifier to a book recommendation module. It is common in neural network literature, especially in image processing, to train a model (source model) on a dataset for a specific task and then transfer the learned features to another model (target model) working with a different dataset and task. The features are considered general if they are learned from first layers in neural networks. General features tend to hold basic information (e.g., color blobs in image processing), and are suitable to work on a different dataset/task. Specific features, on the other hand, generated by the last layers, are very dependent on the dataset/task (Yosinski et al., 2014) . Transferability in NLP applications is explored in (Mou et al., 2016) which concludes its usefulness only for tasks that are mutually semantically similar.",

"text": "The system has two components: authorship identification and book recommendation. For the former, we adopt two approaches similar to (Solorio et al., 2017) ; they use convolutional neural networks (CNN) over a sequence of words and sequence of character bigrams. Given the text of a book as input, the AuthId classifier predicts its author, and once it has achieved good accuracy, we extract features from the last hidden layer (before the output layer) and use them for another task (book recommendation). These book features, then, are specific. In fact, the first task, author identification, is just a way of representing books as vectors that encode information about their authors' writing styles. The recommendation module, on the other hand, is a content-based RS which makes recommendations after finding patterns in the representations of books read by the target user. To achieve this, a regressor is trained over book AuthId features associated with the target user ratings to generate a list of ranked books. This paper makes several contributions. To our knowledge, this is the first work to transfer the information learned from an author identification model to book recommendations. We evaluated the system according to a top-k recommendation scenario. Our system gives better accuracy when compared against many state-of-the-art methods, namely the vector space model (VSM) (Salton and McGill, 1986) , latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) (Blei et al., 2003) , latent semantic indexing (LSI) (Deerwester et al., 1990) and paragraph2vec (Le and Mikolov, 2014) . Moreover, qualitative analysis was conducted on the vectors generated by the author identification model. The books with similar vectors have been found to have similar description in NoveList.",

"text": "Only a few of more than thirty book RSs surveyed in (Alharthi et al., 2017) take the actual text of books into account. In addition to library circulation analysis, many researchers took advantage of the textual reviews shared by individuals and communities. Another category of book RSs considers stylometry features; they are learned from an author's writing, and can help in authorship identification. Stamatatos (2009) categorizes stylometry features into five classes: lexical, syntactic, semantic, application-specific and character-based. In the stylometric content-based (CB) book RS proposed by (Vaz et al., 2012a) , a few features are taken into account. Books were represented in two ways: (1) as vectors of LDA topics, (2) as vectors of stylometric features (document length, vocabulary richness, part-of-speech bigrams and most frequent words). Experiments conducted using the Rocchio algorithm (Manning et al., 2008) on LitRec dataset (Vaz et al., 2012c) showed that the combination of stylometric CB with collaborative filtering (CF) provides better accuracy than an individual CF or CB system. Compared to other representations, the LDA-based vectors showed the best results. Unlike the method we propose, (Vaz et al., 2012a) does not associate stylometric features found in books with authors.",

"text": "Upon receiving the name of the user's favourite author, (Zhang and Chow, 2015) exploit the whole text of an e-book to suggest authors and e-books. To overcome the spatial distribution issue-when words are treated without taking into consideration their order-every author is represented in a hierarchical structure which consists of four layers. The first layer is reserved for the author's related information (e.g., education and political views), while the following three levels are dedicated to the author's books, pages of every book, and paragraphs on each page. The author representations are developed using a multilayer self-organizing map (MLSOM) (Rahman et al., 2007) . To recommend books, the system considers the last three layers. On the other hand, to suggest authors, the RS exploits all the layers. The evaluation is conducted by computing the relevance of two books. If a queried book has the same genres as the recommended book, this is considered a relevant recommendation. The results show higher performance when compared with other CB systems, including those using VSM and LSI.",

"text": "We use the Litrec dataset (Vaz et al., 2012c) which contains data on 1,927 users who rated 3,710 literary works. The dataset incorporates data from Goodreads and from Project Gutenberg. It also has the complete texts of books, labelled with part-of-speech tags (Vaz et al., 2012b) . In Goodreads, books are rated on a scale of 1-5 where 1-2 indicate a dislike and 3-5 a like. A book can have a rating of 0 to indicate that the user has read the book but not rated it. We filtered out all zero-rated books (17,976 ratings). Also, in order to train the author identification network, we need multiple books per author. Thus, we only kept authors with a minimum of three books. Data for users with fewer than 10 ratings are also deleted. The lowest number of ratings needed to develop CB with quality recommendations is 10, a threshold adopted by many researchers, including (Wang et al., 2009) . The remaining 351 users rated 1010 unique items authored by 157 distinct authors. The Gutenberg texts have copyright information at the beginning and the end, which we removed using heuristics or manually. The part-of-speech tags are also removed. Some books are very long; the maximum is 565,570 words, while the average is 99,601 words per book. Because of high memory requirement, the processing of large books resulted in a system crash. That is why we considered only the first 100,000 words of each book-slightly higher than the average length.",

"text": "A recent survey states that the percentage of RS publications that report ranking metrics is 66%, rating prediction metrics is 28%, and usage metrics 6%. We adopt ranking metrics to evaluate our system using a top-k recommendation scenario where systems provide a user with a ranked list of books. Books rated by a target user are divided into training and test set. The system learns from the books in the training set and ranks the remaining books in the dataset (we call it the ranked list). The books in the test set are considered more relevant than the unread books on the ranked list; so, an ideal system would rank items from the test set in the top-k list of books. Similar to many related projects, we set k to 10. Three-fold cross-validation is adopted per user, and the results are averaged. We measure the statistical difference in results, using the t-test at a p-value of 0.05 or 0.01. Metrics. We compute the recommendation accuracy by precision at k (P@k) and recall at k (R@k)-Equations 3-4-where a relevant book means to a preferred book, and recommended means ranked in the top k list. Baselines. To implement LDA, LSI, VSM and Doc2vec, we used gensim, 3 a Python library. The texts of books were tokenized and down-cased, and NLTK stopwords and least frequent words were filtered out. In the first three systems, relevant books in the user training set are compiled and considered as one query. Using cosine similarity, the top-k books most similar to the query are recommended. For LDA and LSI, we experimented with 10, 50, 100 and 200 topics; the best accuracy is reported. The Doc2vec model was trained on book texts; a book id is considered as the label. For training the model, we tried dimensions of 100 versus 300 and window size of 10 versus 5, and we report the best results. The average of document vectors of relevant books in the user training set is considered as a query. The books with highest cosine similarity to this vector are recommended. We also compare with a plain author-based RS which uses SVR similarly to our proposed system, with one difference: instead of book AuthId representations, author ids are used. Parameter Settings. One question usually raised with transfer learning is this: when does one stop training the source model? We stop training the author identification model at the point when the validation accuracy stops increasing for five epochs, or if validation accuracy keeps increasing while the training accuracy becomes close to 100%. The network is trained using the RMSprop optimizer over 32 batches. For the non-linearity, rectified linear units are adopted. The number of neurons in the first fully connected layer is decided empirically to be 32. We also experimented with various combinations of parameters: embedding size = 1, 5, 10, number of filters = 16, 32, kernel size = 2, 5, and maximal pooling size = 2, 5. In the char-bigram CNN, the combination that provides the best validation accuracy (64%) is reached at the 7 th epoch with embedding size of 10, 16 filters and kernel size and max-pooling sizes of 2. The sequence character bigrams can be very lengthy (this causes the system to crash); therefore, a maximum of 150,000 tokens is imposed. For the word CNN, a validation accuracy (65%) was achieved at the 17 th epoch when using embedding size of 10 with 32 filters and 5 for kernel size and max-pooling size. These experiments were implemented using keras, 4 a Python library, on a NVIDIA GeForce Titan X Pascal GPU with memory of 12,184 MiB.",

Such representations are not only useful in content-based RSs as the results have shown, but can be used to enrich current collaborative filtering systems. The experiments show that AuthId book representation gives better precision and recall compared to LSI, LDA, VSM and Doc2vec. Author writing style may change with time or when writing in different genres. Here, we trained the model to predict the authors regardless of the genre, topics or time of their writing. Taking into consideration these factors may help develop a more accurate author identification model, which is expected to result in better book representations. Other ways for authorship identification should be investigated in the context of book recommendations. More advanced ranking methodologies could be adopted, such as pairwise or listwise approaches. One possible approach is to adopt multi-task learning where a neural network has two outputs, namely author name and user preferences. We have tried to use NN models to predict user reading preferences from the text of books, but we could not achieve high accuracy in the top-k scenario. We think that performance would improve if the system could work on a larger dataset with more user-item interactions. ",
