STAR: A Simple Training-free Approach for Recommendations using Large Language Models
Dong-Ho Lee, Adam Kraft, Long Jin +5
Recent progress in large language models (LLMs) offers promising new approaches for recommendation system tasks. While the current state-of-the-art methods rely on fine-tuning LLMs…
Leveraging LLM Reasoning Enhances Personalized Recommender Systems
Alicia Y. Tsai, Adam Kraft, Long Jin +7
Recent advancements have showcased the potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) in executing reasoning tasks, particularly facilitated by Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting. While t…
Aligning Large Language Models with Recommendation Knowledge
Yuwei Cao, Nikhil Mehta, Xinyang Yi +5
Large language models (LLMs) have recently been used as backbones for recommender systems. However, their performance often lags behind conventional methods in standard tasks like…
Large Language Models as Data Augmenters for Cold-Start Item Recommendation
Jianling Wang, Haokai Lu, James Caverlee +2
The reasoning and generalization capabilities of LLMs can help us better understand user preferences and item characteristics, offering exciting prospects to enhance recommendation…
How to Train Data-Efficient LLMs
Noveen Sachdeva, Benjamin Coleman, Wang-Cheng Kang +6
The training of large language models (LLMs) is expensive. In this paper, we study data-efficient approaches for pre-training LLMs, i.e., techniques that aim to optimize the Pareto…
Wisdom of Committee: Diverse Distillation from Large Foundation Models and Domain Experts
Zichang Liu, Qingyun Liu, Yuening Li +6
Knowledge distillation from foundation models to compact domain models is challenging due to substantial gaps in capacity, architecture, and modality. For example, in our experimen…
LEVI: Generalizable Fine-tuning via Layer-wise Ensemble of Different Views
Yuji Roh, Qingyun Liu, Huan Gui +8
Fine-tuning is becoming widely used for leveraging the power of pre-trained foundation models in new downstream tasks. While there are many successes of fine-tuning on various task…
