Session-based recommender systems (SBRS) are an emerging topic in the recommendation domain and have attracted much attention from both academia and industry in recent years. Most of existing works only work on modelling the general item-level dependency for recommendation tasks. However, there are many more other challenges at different levels, e.g., item feature level and session level, and from various perspectives, e.g., item heterogeneity and intra- and inter-item feature coupling relations, associated with SBRS. In this paper, we provide a systematic and comprehensive review on SBRS and create a hierarchical and in-depth understanding of a variety of challenges in SBRS. To be specific, we first illustrate the value and significance of SBRS, followed by a hierarchical framework to categorize the related research issues and methods of SBRS and to reveal its intrinsic challenges and complexities. Further, a summary together with a detailed introduction of the research progress is provided. Lastly, we share some prospects in this research area.
