Welcome to today’s show. We’re diving into Keras Recommenders, Google’s new library that puts “state-of-the-art recommendation techniques at your fingertips.” Recommendation systems power so much of our digital lives—from social-media feeds to video suggestions and even in-app ads. As the team says, it’s all about how to “power digital experiences with recommendation systems.”
With KerasRS you get high-level APIs for ranking and retrieval. You simply pip install keras-rs, set your backend to JAX, TensorFlow, or PyTorch, then define your model using layers like BruteForceRetrieval. Compile with specialized losses such as PairwiseHingeLoss, add NDCG metrics, and hit model.fit to train in just minutes.
Later this year, look out for a DistributedEmbedding layer for massive TPU-backed lookups. Head over to keras.io/keras_rs for quickstarts on DCN, two-tower models, and advanced tutorials like SASRec. Check out the code on GitHub, give it a star, and start building your own recommender system today.
