## What it is
DeepRec is an open-source Python/TensorFlow toolkit implementing deep learning based recommendation models for rating prediction, top-N item ranking, and sequential recommendation. It provides modular, extensible implementations of research models like AutoRec, NeuMF, NFM, CML, LRML, and Caser to help researchers reproduce state-of-the-art methods.

## Use cases
- reproduce deep learning recommendation models from papers
- build a rating prediction model
- implement top-N item ranking recommendations
- run sequential recommendation experiments
- compare collaborative filtering baselines
- learn how neural recommendation models are implemented in TensorFlow

## When to choose
- you need reference implementations of published deep recommendation models
- you are doing academic research on recommender systems
- you want an extensible framework to add new recommendation models
- you work with TensorFlow 1.x and Python 3

## When to avoid
- you need production-ready recommendation serving at scale
- you require TensorFlow 2.x support
- you need actively maintained code with frequent updates
- you want a turnkey recommender with minimal coding

## Facets
- artifact type: library
