A Novel Generative Model with Causality Constraint for Mitigating Biases in Recommender Systems

Jianfeng Deng, Qingfeng Chen, Debo Cheng +3

Accurately predicting counterfactual user feedback is essential for building effective recommender systems. However, latent confounding bias can obscure the true causal relationshi…

Multi-Cause Deconfounding for Recommender Systems with Latent Confounders

Zhirong Huang, Shichao Zhang, Debo Cheng +3

In recommender systems, various latent confounding factors (e.g., user social environment and item public attractiveness) can affect user behavior, item exposure, and feedback in d…

Mitigating Propensity Bias of Large Language Models for Recommender Systems

Guixian Zhang, Guan Yuan, Debo Cheng +3

The rapid development of Large Language Models (LLMs) creates new opportunities for recommender systems, especially by exploiting the side information (e.g., descriptions and analy…

Debiased Contrastive Representation Learning for Mitigating Dual Biases in Recommender Systems

Zhirong Huang, Shichao Zhang, Debo Cheng +3

In recommender systems, popularity and conformity biases undermine recommender effectiveness by disproportionately favouring popular items, leading to their over-representation in…

Interaction-Data-guided Conditional Instrumental Variables for Debiasing Recommender Systems

Zhirong Huang, Debo Cheng, Jiuyong Li +3

It is often challenging to identify a valid instrumental variable (IV), although the IV methods have been regarded as effective tools of addressing the confounding bias introduced…
