Each of the prior interactions includes a product interaction and time. A ranked list of item recommendations is generated based on the plurality of prior interactions. The ranked list of item recommendations is generated by a trained prediction model trained using temporal information embedded into a finite-dimensional vector space. The ranked list of item recommendations is output by the computing device.
