Diffusion-GR2: Diffusion Generative Reasoning Re-ranker

Zhuoxuan Zhang, Kangqi Ni, Yuhang Chen +12

Generative reasoning re-rankers achieve strong recommendation accuracy by emitting a chain-of-thought before re-ordering a candidate list, but they are slow at inference: an autore…

SCOReD: Student-Aware CoT Optimization for Recommendation Distillation

Haz Sameen Shahgir, Yufei Li, Xiaohan Wei +8

Chain-of-thought (CoT) distillation in the recommendation domain is a necessary precursor to RL training, but raw teacher traces are ill-suited to this task. Large teachers approac…

End-to-End Dynamic Sparsity for Resource-Adaptive LLM Inference

Yuhang Chen, Jinhao Duan, Ruichen Zhang +11

Large Language Models (LLMs) inference is typically deployed under a static resource assumption, where models execute a fixed computational graph regardless of the runtime environm…

Bifocal Diffusion Language Models: Asymmetric Bidirectional Context for Parallel Generation

Yuhang Chen, Xianfeng Wu, Jinhao Duan +11

Discrete diffusion language models (dLLMs) recover masked tokens in parallel, offering significant speedups over autoregressive (AR) generation. However, such promising frameworks…

Hierarchical Structured Neural Network: Efficient Retrieval Scaling for Large Scale Recommendation

Kaushik Rangadurai, Siyang Yuan, Minhui Huang +12

Retrieval, the initial stage of a recommendation system, is tasked with down-selecting items from a pool of tens of millions of candidates to a few thousands. Embedding Based Retri…
