Description

Problem:

In a production system customers need to filter out candidate recommendations for a variety of reasons.

Goal:

  • Create a set of common filtering ops and a mechanism for executing them in systems.
  • Determine if this can exist within NVTabular or whether it should be it's own unique library.

New Functionality

Systems
  • Wrap as ops:
  • Item attribute filtering op
  • User attribute based selection of filter for item attribute filtering op
  • Filter previous interactions op (bloom filter?)
  • "Do not recommend from this list" filtering op (bloom filter? / item attribute flag)

##Docs/Examples

  • Add filtering to existing end to end examples

Constraints:

  • Access to item/user attributes, passed into this from the feature store or directly into the graph

Starting Point:

  • interaction filters are commonly implemented as bloom filters
  • item attribute filters are commonly implemented as queries with constraints
