Recommender systems are essential information technologies today, and recommendation algorithms combined with deep learning have become a research hotspot in this field. The recommendation model known as LFM (Latent Factor Model), which captures latent features through matrix factorization and gradient descent to fit user preferences, has given rise to various recommendation algorithms that bring new improvements in recommendation accuracy. However, collaborative filtering recommendation models based on LFM lack flexibility and has shortcomings for real-time recommendations, as they need to redo the matrix factorization and retrain using gradient descent when new users arrive. In response to this, this paper innovatively proposes a Latent Factor Generator (LFG) network, and set the movie recommendation as research theme. The LFG dynamically generates user latent factors through deep neural networks without the need for re-factorization or retrain. Experimental results indicate that the LFG recommendation model outperforms traditional matrix factorization algorithms in recommendation accuracy, providing an effective solution to the challenges of real-time recommendations with LFM.
