Beta Release

New models

• Convolutional Matrix Factorization (ConvMF)
• Collaborative Deep Ranking (CDR)
• Visual Matrix Factorization (VMF)
• Matrix Co-Factorization (MCF)
• Social Bayesian Personalized Ranking (SBPR)
• Social Recommendation (SoRec)

New built-in datasets

• Epinions

New features and improvements

• Support multimodal recommenders with new data module including TextModule, ImageModule, and GraphModule in data.
• Reader support data filtering based on set of users/items and user/item threshold.
• Models can access to user_text, user_image, user_graph, item_text, item_image, and item_graph through MultimodalTrainSet which is input of the fit() function.
