Join us as we delve into Zalando's innovative integration of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to enhance the personalization of homepage content. This session will explore how GNNs were employed to generate dynamic user and content embeddings, capturing complex relational data beyond traditional static features. By focusing on the relational context within user-content interactions, GNNs have improved the prediction of click-through rates (CTR), leading to more tailored and engaging user experiences. Attendees will gain insights into the architecture of the GNN model, the methodologies for training and integrating these embeddings into existing systems, and the tangible benefits observed. This session is ideal for professionals interested in cutting-edge recommender systems and the practical applications of GNNs in large-scale e-commerce platforms.
