The 2nd EReL@MIR Workshop on Efficient Representation Learning for Multimodal Information Retrieval
Junchen Fu, Xuri Ge, Xin Xin +6
Multimodal representation learning has attracted increasing attention in AI, driven by the strong performance of large, pretrained multimodal foundation models such as Qwen, LLaVA,…
ICG: Improving Cover Image Generation via MLLM-based Prompting and Personalized Preference Alignment
Zhipeng Bian, Jieming Zhu, Qijiong Liu +6
Recent advances in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) and diffusion models (DMs) have opened new possibilities for AI-generated content. Yet, personalized cover image generat…
Accelerating Generative Recommendation via Simple Categorical User Sequence Compression
Qijiong Liu, Lu Fan, Zhongzhou Liu +7
Although generative recommenders demonstrate improved performance with longer sequences, their real-time deployment is hindered by substantial computational costs. To address this…
Can LLMs Outshine Conventional Recommenders? A Comparative Evaluation
Qijiong Liu, Jieming Zhu, Lu Fan +5
In recent years, integrating large language models (LLMs) into recommender systems has created new opportunities for improving recommendation quality. However, a comprehensive benc…
The Bias is in the Details: An Assessment of Cognitive Bias in LLMs
R. Alexander Knipper, Charles S. Knipper, Kaiqi Zhang +3
As Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly embedded in real-world decision-making processes, it becomes crucial to examine the extent to which they exhibit cognitive biases.…
RecBase: Generative Foundation Model Pretraining for Zero-Shot Recommendation
Sashuai Zhou, Weinan Gan, Qijiong Liu +7
Recent advances in LLM-based recommendation have shown promise, yet their cross-domain generalization is hindered by a fundamental mismatch between language-centric pretraining and…
