Repository Details
A configurable, tunable, and reproducible library for CTR prediction https://fuxictr.github.io
Click-through rate (CTR) prediction is a critical task for many industrial applications such as online advertising, recommender systems, and sponsored search. FuxiCTR provides an open-source library for CTR prediction, with key features in configurability, tunability, and reproducibility. We hope this project could benefit both researchers and practitioners with the goal of open benchmarking for CTR prediction tasks.
Key Features
Configurable: Both data preprocessing and models are modularized and configurable.
Tunable: Models can be automatically tuned through easy configurations.
Reproducible: All the benchmarks can be easily reproduced.
Extensible: It supports both pytorch and tensorflow models, and can be easily extended to any new models.
FuxiCTR has the following dependency requirements.
python 3.6+
pytorch 1.0/1.10+ (required only for torch models)
tensorflow 2.1+ (required only for tf models)
Other packages can be installed via pip install -r requirements.txt.
Quick Start
Run the demo examples
Examples are provided in the demo directory to show some basic usage of FuxiCTR. Users can run the examples for quick start and to understand the workflow.
cd demo
python example1_build_dataset_to_h5.py
python example2_DeepFM_with_h5_input.py
Run an existing model
Users can easily run each model in the model zoo following the commands below, which is a demo for running DCN. In addition, users can modify the dataset config and model config files to run on their own datasets or with new hyper-parameters. More details can be found in the readme file.
cd model_zoo/DCN/DCN_torch
python run_expid.py --expid DCN_test --gpu 0
# Change `MODEL` according to the target model name
cd model_zoo/MODEL_PATH
python run_expid.py --expid MODEL_test --gpu 0
Implement a new model
The FuxiCTR code structure is modularized, so that every part can be overwritten by users according to their needs. In many cases, only the model class needs to be implemented for a new customized model. If data preprocessing or data loader is not directly applicable, one can also overwrite a new one through the core APIs. We show a concrete example which implements our new model FinalMLP that has been recently published in AAAI 2023. More examples can be found in the model zoo.
