Description

Hello!
I have a huge dataset which can not be fitted on a single machine and data has much more users than items. Now I'm thinking about training LightFm on cluster. How can I do it?
Can I train LightFm on nodes using only interactions for subset of users and update vector representations as mean of nodes vectors? Is there a way to do it better?
