Reviews: A Meta-Learning Perspective on Cold-Start Recommendations for Items

Neural Information Processing Systems 

This is an interesting and well-written paper but there are some parts that are not well explained, hence my recommendation. These aspects are not clear: 1. I am not sure about the "meta-learning" part. The recommendation task is simply formulated as a binary classification task (without using matrix factorization). The relation to meta-learning is not convincing to me. 2. "it becomes natural to take advantage of deep neural networks (the common approach in meta-learning)" - this is not a valid claim - deep learning is not the common approach for meta-learning; please see the papers by Brazdil and also the survey by Vilaltra & Drissi.
