Profile

Hello HN,This is toposonico, a music recommender and navigable map. At core it's a skipgram word2vec model trained over ~6M playlists. Tracks are embedded in a 128d space. Embeddings for albums, artists and labels are computed marginalizing over tracks. The 2D map was built with UMAP.Both the model and UMAP were trained in the cloud over a NVIDIA A100. All things considered it cost me around ~50EUR, over two main training sessions and a few experiments. For the slippy map I experimented with a few libraries. Ended up with Maplibre GL JS. Loved working with it, kudos to their developers. For the recommender indexes I used FAISS, another great piece of software. Pretty happy with the thing run
