When and How Order-Flow Interventions Work After Dealers Adapt

Guanghao Wu, Zhuo Cai, Zhidong Li +1

Learning dealer agents can settle on persistently wide quotes, raising what customers pay to trade. A venue can route more orders to tighter quotes, but a wide quote may reflect re…

Generate What You Can Trust: Content Credibility in Generative Recommenders

Zhuo Cai, Guanghao Wu, Shoujin Wang +2

Generative recommendation (GR) represents items with semantic IDs (i.e., discrete token sequences) and generates target item tokens as recommendations. Despite its promising result…

SPRINT: Single-Step Generative Recommendation via Average Probability Velocity

Zhuo Cai, Shoujin Wang, Peilin Zhou +3

Semantic ID (SID) based generative recommendation represents each item as a sequence of discrete tokens, and recommends by generating the SID of the item a user would like to inter…
