| Challenge: | Existing news recommendation methods rely on news click history to model user interest, but data sparsity is a problem . other kinds of user behaviors such as webpage browsing and search queries can provide useful clues of users’ news reading interest. |
| Approach: | They propose to exploit heterogeneous user behaviors to learn news representations from their titles via CNN networks and apply attention networks to select important words. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach exploits heterogeneous user behaviors on a real-world dataset. |
