In this work, we present a new dataset for conversational recommendation over knowledge graphs in e-commerce platforms called COOKIE. The dataset is constructed from an Amazon review corpus by integrating both user-agent dialogue and custom knowledge graphs for recommendation. Specifically, we first construct a unified knowledge graph and extract key entities between user–product pairs, which serve as the skeleton of a conversation. Then we simulate conversations mirroring the human coarse-to-fine process of choosing preferred items. The proposed baselines and experiments demonstrate that our dataset is able to provide innovative opportunities for conversational recommendation.
