Empowering Compact LLMs with Fusion of Layer-wise Exits for Recommendation
Xurong Liang, Tong Chen, Quoc Viet Hung Nguyen +3
Large language model-based recommender systems (LLM-RSs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities, but are computationally unsustainable for many real-world applications. Compact…
ODYSSE: Episode-wise Policy Optimization for Personalized Agentic Reasoning
Jiaqi Zhang, Tong Chen, Junliang Yu +2
Agentic systems have rapidly advanced in their ability to interact with real-world environments, leverage external tools, and provide services for users. However, unlike natural-wo…
VaLiDRec: Variable-Length LLM-Aligned Semantic IDs for Generative Recommendation
Shutong Qiao, Wei Yuan, Tong Chen +3
Generative recommendation commonly represents items using fixed-length semantic identifiers (SIDs) constructed through clustering and quantization. However, these artificial codes…
FINER-SQL: Boosting Small Language Models for Text-to-SQL
Thanh Dat Hoang, Thanh Trung Huynh, Matthias Weidlich +4
Large language models have driven major advances in Text-to-SQL generation. However, they suffer from high computational cost, long latency, and data privacy concerns, which make t…
ProMax: Exploring the Potential of LLM-derived Profiles with Distribution Shaping for Recommender Systems
Yi Zhang, Yiwen Zhang, Kai Zheng +2
The remarkable text understanding and generation capabilities of large language models (LLMs) have revitalized the field of general recommendation based on implicit user feedback.…
Self-Distilled Reinforcement Learning for Co-Evolving Agentic Recommender Systems
Zongwei Wang, Min Gao, Hongzhi Yin +5
Large language model-empowered agentic recommender systems (ARS) reformulate recommendation as a multi-turn interaction between a recommender agent and a user agent, enabling itera…
Federated User Behavior Modeling for Privacy-Preserving LLM Recommendation
Lei Guo, Hongyun Yang, Pengjie Ren +3
Large Language Models have shown great success in recommender systems. However, the limited and sparse nature of user data often restricts the LLM's ability to effectively model be…
AV-SQL: Decomposing Complex Text-to-SQL Queries with Agentic Views
Minh Tam Pham, Trinh Pham, Tong Chen +3
Text-to-SQL is the task of translating natural language queries into executable SQL for a given database, enabling non-expert users to access structured data without writing SQL ma…
Agentic Mixed-Source Multi-Modal Misinformation Detection with Adaptive Test-Time Scaling
Wei Jiang, Tong Chen, Wei Yuan +2
Vision-language models (VLMs) have been proven effective for detecting multi-modal misinformation on social platforms, especially in zero-shot settings with unavailable or delayed…
Integrating Vision-Centric Text Understanding for Conversational Recommender Systems
Wei Yuan, Shutong Qiao, Tong Chen +3
Conversational Recommender Systems (CRSs) have attracted growing attention for their ability to deliver personalized recommendations through natural language interactions. To more…
Efficient Content-based Recommendation Model Training via Noise-aware Coreset Selection
Hung Vinh Tran, Tong Chen, Hechuan Wen +3
Content-based recommendation systems (CRSs) utilize content features to predict user-item interactions, serving as essential tools for helping users navigate information-rich web s…
QA-Merging: Query-Adaptive Reasoning via Layer Selective Model Merging
Zhaofeng Zhong, Wei Yuan, Tong Chen +4
Recent large reasoning models (LRMs) have achieved strong performance on complex reasoning tasks by generating a long chain-of-thought (Long-CoT). However, such lengthy reasoning i…
