Xray-Visual Models: Scaling Vision models on Industry Scale Data
Shlok Mishra, Tsung-Yu Lin, Linda Wang +24
We present Xray-Visual, a unified vision model architecture for large-scale image and video understanding trained on industry-scale social media data. Our model leverages over 15 b…
NEXT: Reasoning-Driven Video Recommendation via a Vision-Language Model
Yuming Liu, Hongye Yang, Harrison Zhao +5
We present NEXT (Next-interest EXploration Transformer), a reasoning-driven video recommendation framework that reasons over the video a user has just watched, infers the viewer's…
RepFusion: Leveraging Multimodal Priors for Denoising in Representation Space
Xichen Pan, Aashu Singh, Satya Narayan Shukla +3
Large language models (LLMs) are widely used in text-to-image (T2I) systems, but they are typically limited to text encoding, while denoising is handled by newly trained generative…
Principled Synthetic Data Enables the First Scaling Laws for LLMs in Recommendation
Benyu Zhang, Qiang Zhang, Jianpeng Cheng +10
Large Language Models (LLMs) represent a promising frontier for recommender systems, yet their development has been impeded by the absence of predictable scaling laws, which are cr…
Unifying Contrastive and Generative Objectives for Visual Understanding and Text-to-Image Generation
Chao Li, Tianhong Li, Sai Vidyaranya Nuthalapati +9
Unifying text-image contrastive learning and text-to-image (T2I) generation in a single end-to-end model is challenging because the two objectives demand opposing masking regimes:…
Rethinking ANN-based Retrieval: Multifaceted Learnable Index for Large-scale Recommendation System
Jiang Zhang, Yubo Wang, Wei Chang +14
Approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search is widely used in the retrieval stage of large-scale recommendation systems. In this stage, candidate items are indexed using their learne…
