Abstract: System and method for training a recommender system (RS). The RS is configured to make recommendations in respect of a bipartite graph that comprises a plurality of user nodes, a plurality of item nodes, and an observed graph topology that defines edges connecting at least some of the user nodes to some of the item nodes, the RS including an existing graph neural network (GNN) model configured by an existing set of parameters. The method includes: applying a loss function to compute an updated set of parameters for an updated GNN model that is trained with a new graph using the first set of parameters as initialization parameters, the loss function being configured to distil knowledge based on node embeddings generated by the existing GNN model in respect of an existing graph, wherein the new graph includes a plurality of user nodes and a plurality of item nodes that are also included in the existing graph; and replacing the existing GNN model of the RS with the updated GNN model.
