Table of Links Abstract & Introduction Methodology Experiments Related Work Conclusion and Future Work, Acknowledgment and References 5 CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK In this work, we systematically study the problem of bundle construction and define a more comprehensive formulation by considering all the three types of data, i.e., multimodal features, item-level user feedback data, and existing bundles. Based on this formulation, we highlight two challenges: 1) how to learn expressive bundle representations given multiple features; and 2) how to counter the modality missing, noise, and sparity problem. To tackle these challenges, we propose a novel method of Contrastive Learningenhanced Hierarchical Encoder (CLHE) for bundle construction. Our method beats a list of leading methods on four datasets of two application domains. Extensive ablation and model studies justify the effectiveness of the key modules. Despite the great performance that has been achieved by this work, there is still large space to be explored for bundle construction. First, the current evaluation setting is a little bit rigid and inflexible, it is interesting to extend it to more flexible setting to align with real applications. For example, given arbitrary number of seed items, the model is asked to construct the bundle. Second, some of the feature extractors are pre-trained and fixed, i.e., the multimodal feature extraction and user-item interaction models. Is it possible to optimize these feature extractors in an end-to-end fashion thus the extracted features would be more aligned to the bundle construction task? Finally, this work just targets at unpersonalized bundle construction. It is an interesting and natural direction to push forward this work to personalized bundle construction.
