TokenMinds: Pretrained User Tokens and Embeddings for User Understanding in Large Recommender Systems
Qingyun Liu, Bo Yan, Yang Liu +15
User modeling in industrial recommender systems typically produces dense embeddings, which suffer from representational constraints inherent to fixed-dimensional vectors. An emergi…
Token Factory: Efficiently Integrating Diverse Signals into Large Recommendation Models
Xilun Chen, Shao-Chuan Wang, Baykal Cakici +6
Large Recommendation Models (LRMs) have demonstrated promising capabilities in industry-scale recommendation tasks. However, holistically integrating traditional signals into these…
ORBIT: Preserving Foundational Language Capabilities in GenRetrieval via Origin-Regulated Merging
Neha Verma, Nikhil Mehta, Shao-Chuan Wang +7
Despite the rapid advancements in large language model (LLM) development, fine-tuning them for specific tasks often results in the catastrophic forgetting of their general, languag…
Vectorizing the Trie: Efficient Constrained Decoding for LLM-based Generative Retrieval on Accelerators
Zhengyang Su, Isay Katsman, Yueqi Wang +10
Generative retrieval has emerged as a powerful paradigm for LLM-based recommendation. However, industrial recommender systems often benefit from restricting the output space to a c…
Self-Evolving Recommendation System: End-To-End Autonomous Model Optimization With LLM Agents
Haochen Wang, Yi Wu, Daryl Chang +2
Optimizing large-scale machine learning systems, such as recommendation models for global video platforms, requires navigating a massive hyperparameter search space and, more criti…
Learning to Alleviate Familiarity Bias in Video Recommendation
Zheng Ren, Yi Wu, Jianan Lu +4
Modern video recommendation systems aim to optimize user engagement and platform objectives, yet often face structural exposure imbalances caused by behavioral biases. In this work…
