Towards Faithful Simulation of Human Shopping Behavior
Jiakai Tang, Yan Mi, Jing Yu +9
Simulating realistic user shopping behavior underpins offline evaluation and reinforcement learning in e-commerce scenarios. While recent LLM- and VLM-based simulators have made en…
DREAM Technical Report
Bin Zhang, Bowen Zheng, Chao Yi +74
Industrial recommender systems commonly use cascaded retrieval, ranking, and re-ranking pipelines. Although efficient, these pipelines fragment information and objectives across mo…
Learning from the Future: Privileged Self-Distillation for Sequential Recommendation
Jiakai Tang, Yang Zhang, See-Kiong Ng +4
Sequential recommenders are commonly trained with one-hot next-item labels under a causal (prefix-only) objective aligned with inference. While deployment-compatible, this supervis…
RecGPT-V3 Technical Report
Bowen Zheng, Chao Yi, Dian Chen +26
Large language models (LLMs) are transforming recommender systems from matching co-occurrence patterns in historical behavior toward reasoning about the intent that drives it. RecG…
Declarative Skills for AI Agents in Knowledge-Grounded Tool-Use Workflows
M. Danish Lim, I. Danial Bin Sharudin, Wen Han Chen +2
We study orchestration mechanisms for tool-using AI agents in realistic customer-service workflows over an unstructured knowledge base. We argue that declarative agents -- AI agent…
Parallel Latent Reasoning for Sequential Recommendation
Jiakai Tang, Xu Chen, Wen Chen +3
Capturing complex user preferences from sparse behavioral sequences remains a fundamental challenge in sequential recommendation. Recent latent reasoning methods have shown promise…
