The graph-based recommendation has achieved great success in recent years. However, most existing graph-based recommendations focus on capturing user preference based on positive e…
ID-centric Pre-training for Recommendation
Yiqing Wu, Ruobing Xie, Zhao Zhang +5
Classical sequential recommendation models generally adopt ID embeddings to store knowledge learned from user historical behaviors and represent items. However, these unique IDs ar…
Plug-in Diffusion Model for Sequential Recommendation
Haokai Ma, Ruobing Xie, Lei Meng +4
Pioneering efforts have verified the effectiveness of the diffusion models in exploring the informative uncertainty for recommendation. Considering the difference between recommend…
Curriculum-scheduled Knowledge Distillation from Multiple Pre-trained Teachers for Multi-domain Sequential Recommendation
Wenqi Sun, Ruobing Xie, Junjie Zhang +3
Pre-trained recommendation models (PRMs) have received increasing interest recently. However, their intrinsically heterogeneous model structure, huge model size and computation cos…
AgentCF: Collaborative Learning with Autonomous Language Agents for Recommender Systems
Junjie Zhang, Yupeng Hou, Ruobing Xie +5
Recently, there has been an emergence of employing LLM-powered agents as believable human proxies, based on their remarkable decision-making capability. However, existing studies m…
Learning from All Sides: Diversified Positive Augmentation via Self-distillation in Recommendation
Chong Liu, Xiaoyang Liu, Ruobing Xie +3
Personalized recommendation relies on user historical behaviors to provide user-interested items, and thus seriously struggles with the data sparsity issue. A powerful positive ite…
Graph Exploration Matters: Improving both individual-level and system-level diversity in WeChat Feed Recommender
Shuai Yang, Lixin Zhang, Feng Xia +1
There are roughly three stages in real industrial recommendation systems, candidates generation (retrieval), ranking and reranking. Individual-level diversity and system-level dive…
Recommendation as Instruction Following: A Large Language Model Empowered Recommendation Approach
Junjie Zhang, Ruobing Xie, Yupeng Hou +3
In the past decades, recommender systems have attracted much attention in both research and industry communities, and a large number of studies have been devoted to developing effe…
Triple Sequence Learning for Cross-domain Recommendation
Haokai Ma, Ruobing Xie, Lei Meng +4
Cross-domain recommendation (CDR) aims to leverage the correlation of users' behaviors in both the source and target domains to improve the user preference modeling in the target d…
Better Pre-Training by Reducing Representation Confusion
Haojie Zhang, Mingfei Liang, Ruobing Xie +3
In this work, we revisit the Transformer-based pre-trained language models and identify two different types of information confusion in position encoding and model representations,…
Reweighting Clicks with Dwell Time in Recommendation
Ruobing Xie, Lin Ma, Shaoliang Zhang +2
The click behavior is the most widely-used user positive feedback in recommendation. However, simply considering each click equally in training may suffer from clickbaits and title…
UFNRec: Utilizing False Negative Samples for Sequential Recommendation
Xiaoyang Liu, Chong Liu, Pinzheng Wang +5
Sequential recommendation models are primarily optimized to distinguish positive samples from negative ones during training in which negative sampling serves as an essential compon…
Multi-granularity Item-based Contrastive Recommendation
Ruobing Xie, Zhijie Qiu, Bo Zhang +1
Contrastive learning (CL) has shown its power in recommendation. However, most CL-based recommendation models build their CL tasks merely focusing on the user's aspects, ignoring t…
Prompt Tuning for Discriminative Pre-trained Language Models
Yuan Yao, Bowen Dong, Ao Zhang +6
Recent works have shown promising results of prompt tuning in stimulating pre-trained language models (PLMs) for natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, to the best of ou…
Personalized Prompt for Sequential Recommendation
Yiqing Wu, Ruobing Xie, Yongchun Zhu +4
Pre-training models have shown their power in sequential recommendation. Recently, prompt has been widely explored and verified for tuning in NLP pre-training, which could help to…
Selective Fairness in Recommendation via Prompts
Yiqing Wu, Ruobing Xie, Yongchun Zhu +5
Recommendation fairness has attracted great attention recently. In real-world systems, users usually have multiple sensitive attributes (e.g. age, gender, and occupation), and user…
Multi-view Multi-behavior Contrastive Learning in Recommendation
Yiqing Wu, Ruobing Xie, Yongchun Zhu +6
Multi-behavior recommendation (MBR) aims to jointly consider multiple behaviors to improve the target behavior's performance. We argue that MBR models should: (1) model the coarse-…
