Codes for our SIGIR 2020 paper BiANE: Bipartite Attributed Network Embedding

Dataset should be processed as following:

user_id.tsv: [user_name, '\t', ,user_id], user node id; (user_id should start from 0)

item_id.tsv: [item_name, '\t', ,item_id], item node id; (item_id should start from 0)

adjlist_user_id.tsv: [user_name, '\t', ,user id for adjlist], user node ids of the adjacency list file; (adjlist_user_id should start from 0, which is exactly the same as user_id.)

adjlist_item_id.tsv: [item_name, '\t', ,item_id for adjlist], item node ids of the adjacency list file; (It's suggested that the adjlist_item_id should start from the end of adjlist_user_id. For instance, if adjlist_user_id is from 0 to 100, the adjlist_item_id should start from 101.)

adjlist.txt: [node_itself neighbor_node_0 neighbor_node_1 nerighbor_node_2 neighbor_node_3 ... neighbor_node_k], the adjacency list for the graph (training set), each node is represented as its adjlist id;

train.csv: [user_id, item_id], the dataset for embedding model training. It only contains true links of the inter-partition relations. We take them as positive cases and randomly sample negative cases during the training process to model the inter-partition proximity;

valid.tsv: [user_id, '\t', item_id, '\t', label], the dataset for embedding model validation. It contains both positive cases and negative cases (randomly sampled) for inter-partition links. label indicates that whether the link relation is positive or not. The ratio of positives to negatives is 1:1;

train.tsv: [user_id, '\t', item_id, '\t', label], the dataset for training link prediction model (a logistic regression model). The label information and positive to negative ratio is the same to valid.tsv;

test.tsv: [user_id, '\t', tem_id, '\t', label], the test set for link prediction. The label information and positive to negative ratio is the same to valid.tsv;

user_attr.pkl: user_attr[user_id][:] , a two-dimension ndarray matrix of user attributes, the row number (starts from 0) represents the respective user id.

item_attr.pkl: item_attr[item_id][:], a two-dimension ndarray matrix of item attributes, the row number (starts from 0) represents the respective item id.

emb.txt:
        node_number, dimension (skip this line)
        <\s>(invalid token), embedding (skip this line)
        node_adjlist_id, embedding
        ......                   

, a matrix of high-order structure features for nodes. Each node is adjlist id. This file is the output of metapath2vec .

The above described dataset format is only required for the running python scripts in model. One can change the dataset format as his/her wish if he/she considers to modify the data reading/writing code in model.

{dataset}_best_model.pkl, the parameters of the trained AutoEncoders.
