Abstract

Next point of interest (POI) recommendation is a hot topic in the field of recommendation algorithms, aimed at recommending the suitable next locations for users. Recent research has significantly improved performance by simulating user interactions with POIs and the transitions between POIs using graph and sequence methods. However, existing models still have issues that need to be addressed. In response to the limitations of current next POI recommendation models, particularly in how to fully capture both global and local information on the User-POI interaction graph, and in alleviating the oversmoothing characteristics of graph neural networks that lead to information loss on the graph, this paper proposes a multi-coding network based on the Graph Transformer model for recommending the next POI. Firstly, it jointly encodes global, local, and relative information on the User-POI interaction graph from the perspectives of position and structure; then, the graph embeddings produced by this encoding are updated through Graph Transformer network layers, which refresh the information of nodes and edges on the graph; finally, predictions are generated through MLP network layers. The MCGT model is empirically tested on two public datasets, Gowalla and TKY, showing at least a 3.79% improvement in Recall and NDCG metrics on the Gowalla dataset and at least a 2.5% improvement on the TKY dataset, thus proving the reasonableness and effectiveness of the MCGT model design.
