MKR is a Multi-task learning approach for Knowledge graph enhanced Recommendation. MKR consists of two parts: the recommender system (RS) module and the knowledge graph embedding (KGE) module. The two modules are bridged by cross&compress units, which can automatically learn high-order interactions of item and entity features and transfer knowledge between the two tasks.
