Towards Efficient Reasoning in LLM-Based Recommender Systems via Model Merging

Linh Dieu Le, Tong Chen, Shazia Sadiq +3

Large language model-based recommender systems are increasingly adopting slow-thinking models that generate step-by-step reasoning before making predictions, often achieving higher…

Personalized Communication Skills for Agentic Recommender Systems

Zongwei Wang, Min Gao, Guangyu Hu +2

Agentic recommender systems increasingly employ large language model-based UserAgents to evaluate candidate items through simulated feedback before recommendations are delivered. H…

Where Reasoning Matters: Rethinking Latent Reasoning in Semantic ID-based Generative Recommendation

Shangxin Yang, Min Gao, Zongwei Wang +1

Semantic ID-based generative recommendation predicts an item by generating a short sequence of semantic ID tokens, where each token is produced autoregressively. Latent reasoning h…

FOSTER: First-order Dataset Distillation for Text-based Sequential Recommendation

Hung Vinh Tran, Tong Chen, Xinyi Gao +3

Text-based sequential recommender systems, while greatly improving recommendation accuracy by incorporating item contexts, are undeniably more expensive to train. By condensing a l…

Self-Distilled Reinforcement Learning for Co-Evolving Agentic Recommender Systems

Zongwei Wang, Min Gao, Hongzhi Yin +5

Large language model-empowered agentic recommender systems (ARS) reformulate recommendation as a multi-turn interaction between a recommender agent and a user agent, enabling itera…
