Sequential Recommendation for Optimizing Both Immediate Feedback and Long-term Retention
In the landscape of Recommender System (RS) applications, reinforcement learning (RL) has recently emerged as a powerful tool, primarily due to its proficiency in optimizing long-term rewards.
Future Impact Decomposition in Request-level Recommendations
Furthermore, we show that a reward-based future decomposition strategy can better express the item-wise future impact and improve the recommendation accuracy in the long term.
KuaiSim: A Comprehensive Simulator for Recommender Systems
For each task, KuaiSim also provides evaluation protocols and baseline recommendation algorithms that further serve as benchmarks for future research.
A Large Language Model Enhanced Conversational Recommender System
For response generation, we utilize the generation ability of LLM as a language interface to better interact with users.
State Regularized Policy Optimization on Data with Dynamics Shift
Data with dynamics shift are separated according to their environment parameters to train the corresponding policy.
Generative Flow Network for Listwise Recommendation
In this work, we aim to learn a policy that can generate sufficiently diverse item lists for users while maintaining high recommendation quality.
VIP5: Towards Multimodal Foundation Models for Recommendation
In light of this, we propose the development of a multimodal foundation model (MFM) considering visual, textual, and personalization modalities under the P5 recommendation paradigm, thus named VIP5 (Visual P5), to unify various modalities and recommendation tasks.
Multi-Task Recommendations with Reinforcement Learning
To be specific, the RMTL structure can address the two aforementioned issues by (i) constructing an MTL environment from session-wise interactions and (ii) training multi-task actor-critic network structure, which is compatible with most existing MTL-based recommendation models, and (iii) optimizing and fine-tuning the MTL loss function using the weights generated by critic networks.
Exploration and Regularization of the Latent Action Space in Recommendation
To overcome this challenge, we propose a hyper-actor and critic learning framework where the policy decomposes the item list generation process into a hyper-action inference step and an effect-action selection step.
Reinforcing User Retention in a Billion Scale Short Video Recommender System
In this paper, we choose reinforcement learning methods to optimize the retention as they are designed to maximize the long-term performance.
Two-Stage Constrained Actor-Critic for Short Video Recommendation
One the one hand, the platforms aims at optimizing the users' cumulative watch time (main goal) in long term, which can be effectively optimized by Reinforcement Learning.
PrefRec: Recommender Systems with Human Preferences for Reinforcing Long-term User Engagement
Though promising, the application of RL heavily relies on well-designed rewards, but designing rewards related to long-term user engagement is quite difficult.
A Survey on Trustworthy Recommender Systems
Recommender systems (RS), serving at the forefront of Human-centered AI, are widely deployed in almost every corner of the web and facilitate the human decision-making process.
Fairness in Recommendation: Foundations, Methods and Applications
It first presents a brief introduction about fairness in basic machine learning tasks such as classification and ranking in order to provide a general overview of fairness research, as well as introduce the more complex situations and challenges that need to be considered when studying fairness in recommender systems.
Explainable Fairness in Recommendation
In this paper, we study the problem of explainable fairness, which helps to gain insights about why a system is fair or unfair, and guides the design of fair recommender systems with a more informed and unified methodology.
Recommendation as Language Processing (RLP): A Unified Pretrain, Personalized Prompt & Predict Paradigm (P5)
For a long time, different recommendation tasks typically require designing task-specific architectures and training objectives.
Graph Collaborative Reasoning
Graphs can represent relational information among entities and graph structures are widely used in many intelligent tasks such as search, recommendation, and question answering.
Counterfactual Evaluation for Explainable AI
While recent years have witnessed the emergence of various explainable methods in machine learning, to what degree the explanations really represent the reasoning process behind the model prediction -- namely, the faithfulness of explanation -- is still an open problem.
Variation Control and Evaluation for Generative SlateRecommendations
Slate recommendation generates a list of items as a whole instead of ranking each item individually, so as to better model the intra-list positional biases and item relations.
Discrete Knowledge Graph Embedding based on Discrete Optimization
This paper proposes a discrete knowledge graph (KG) embedding (DKGE) method, which projects KG entities and relations into the Hamming space based on a computationally tractable discrete optimization algorithm, to solve the formidable storage and computation cost challenges in traditional continuous graph embedding methods.
Towards Long-term Fairness in Recommendation
We focus on the fairness of exposure of items in different groups, while the division of the groups is based on item popularity, which dynamically changes over time in the recommendation process.
Learning Personalized Risk Preferences for Recommendation
Before making purchases on e-commerce websites, most consumers tend to rely on rating scores and review information to make purchase decisions.
Learning Post-Hoc Causal Explanations for Recommendation
State-of-the-art recommender systems have the ability to generate high-quality recommendations, but usually cannot provide intuitive explanations to humans due to the usage of black-box prediction models.
