DV365: Extremely Long User History Modeling at Instagram
Wenhan Lyu, Devashish Tyagi, Yihang Yang +9
Long user history is highly valuable signal for recommendation systems, but effectively incorporating it often comes with high cost in terms of data center power consumption and GP…
Density Weighting for Multi-Interest Personalized Recommendation
Nikhil Mehta, Anima Singh, Xinyang Yi +3
Using multiple user representations (MUR) to model user behavior instead of a single user representation (SUR) has been shown to improve personalization in recommendation systems.…
Nonlinear Initialization Methods for Low-Rank Neural Networks
Kiran Vodrahalli, Rakesh Shivanna, Maheswaran Sathiamoorthy +2
We propose a novel low-rank initialization framework for training low-rank deep neural networks -- networks where the weight parameters are re-parameterized by products of two low-…
DCN V2: Improved Deep & Cross Network and Practical Lessons for Web-scale Learning to Rank Systems
Ruoxi Wang, Rakesh Shivanna, Derek Z. Cheng +4
Learning effective feature crosses is the key behind building recommender systems. However, the sparse and large feature space requires exhaustive search to identify effective cros…
Understanding and Improving Knowledge Distillation
Jiaxi Tang, Rakesh Shivanna, Zhe Zhao +4
Knowledge Distillation (KD) is a model-agnostic technique to improve model quality while having a fixed capacity budget. It is a commonly used technique for model compression, wher…
Towards Neural Mixture Recommender for Long Range Dependent User Sequences
Jiaxi Tang, Francois Belletti, Sagar Jain +4
Understanding temporal dynamics has proved to be highly valuable for accurate recommendation. Sequential recommenders have been successful in modeling the dynamics of users and ite…
Top-K Off-Policy Correction for a REINFORCE Recommender System
Minmin Chen, Alex Beutel, Paul Covington +3
Industrial recommender systems deal with extremely large action spaces -- many millions of items to recommend. Moreover, they need to serve billions of users, who are unique at any…
Seq2Slate: Re-ranking and Slate Optimization with RNNs
Irwan Bello, Sayali Kulkarni, Sagar Jain +6
Ranking is a central task in machine learning and information retrieval. In this task, it is especially important to present the user with a slate of items that is appealing as a w…
