PISA: A Psychology-Informed Approach to Sequential Music Recommendation with Repeat Listening Awareness

Enhancing Music Recommendation Systems with PISA

Revolutionizing Music Discovery

Music recommendation systems are essential for streaming platforms, helping users discover new songs and re-listen to favorites. Algorithms analyze listening patterns to provide personalized song recommendations based on dynamic user preferences, offering a balance between exploring new content and savoring familiar tracks.

Challenges Faced

Existing models struggle to accurately reflect users’ repetitive listening behaviors, potentially missing key aspects of their musical experience. This presents a need for more refined models to handle the complexity of repeat behavior in music consumption.

Introducing PISA

Researchers at Deezer have introduced a novel system, PISA, which leverages insights from cognitive psychology to enhance sequential listening recommendations by incorporating repetitive listening behavior into the predictive model.

How PISA Works

PISA operates using a Transformer-based architecture that captures dynamic and repetitive patterns in user behavior. The system uses attention weights influenced by ACT-R components to effectively predict which songs users are likely to re-listen to while still being capable of introducing new content.

Performance Validation

PISA has been validated using large-scale datasets and has outperformed traditional models in several key metrics, demonstrating its capability to model user preferences for both heard and new songs, as well as accurately handle repetitive behaviors in music listening.

Conclusion and Application

The PISA system effectively addresses a crucial gap in music recommendation, offering a more accurate and user-friendly recommendation experience by accounting for both repetitive and evolving listening behaviors. It ensures a balanced and engaging listening experience for users.
