Cross-domain recommendation can alleviate the data sparsity problem in recommender systems. To transfer the knowledge from one domain to another, one can either utilize the neighborhood information or learn a direct mapping function. However, all existing methods ignore the high-order connectivity information in cross-domain recommendation area and suffer from the domain-incompatibility problem. In this paper, we propose a Joint Spectral Convolutional Network (JSCN) for cross-domain recommendation. JSCN will simultaneously operate multi-layer spectral convolutions on different graphs, and jointly learn a domain-invariant user representation with a domain adaptive user mapping module. As a result, the high-order comprehensive connectivity information can be extracted by the spectral convolutions and the information can be transferred across domains with the domain-invariant user mapping. The domain adaptive user mapping module can help the incompatible domains to transfer the knowledge across each other. Extensive experiments on 24 Amazon rating datasets show the effectiveness of JSCN in the cross-domain recommendation, with 9.2% improvement on recall and 36.4% improvement on MAP compared with state-of-the-art methods. Our code is available online  [%s].
