Many recommender systems suffer from popularity bias: popular items are recommended frequently while less popular, niche products, are recommended rarely or not at all. However, recommending the ignored products in the `long tail' is critical for businesses as they are less likely to be discovered. In this paper, we introduce a personalized diversification re-ranking approach to increase the representation of less popular items in recommendations while maintaining acceptable recommendation accuracy. Our approach is a post-processing step that can be applied to the output of any recommender system. We show that our approach is capable of managing popularity bias more effectively, compared with an existing method based on regularization. We also examine both new and existing metrics to measure the coverage of long-tail items in the recommendation.

Stay or Stray - A Dynamical Systems Viewpoint of Popularity Bias
Recommendation systems converge to popularity bias when the majority-user fraction exceeds a threshold p*, and to symmetric retention under mean-separation conditions; a two-timescale ODE model proves this.
