Question about Embeddings Initialization

[knowbyyou]

The source code you have provided used bpr-mf to initialize the user & item embeddings. Were all the results(including all baselines) in your paper also used bpr-mf to provide initialization? Or not?
If you used bpr-mf to initialize the embeddings, why you said used default Xavier initializer to initialize the model parameters in your paper. Thank you for your answering.

I am also interested in this question. I run the code on the dataset Last-FM without the pretrained embeddings. The results of recall and ndcg degrade significantly. Did the baselines also use the same pretrained embeddings? @xiangwang1223 Looking forward to your replay. Thank you.

Did you solve your problems,I meet the same too. @zhangjindou @knowbyyou
