On the Equivalence Between Auto-Regressive Next Token Prediction and Full-Item-Vocabulary Maximum Likelihood Estimation in Generative Recommendation--A Short Note

Yusheng Huang, Shuang Yang, Zhaojie Liu +1

Generative recommendation (GR) has emerged as a widely adopted paradigm in industrial sequential recommendation. Current GR systems follow a similar pipeline: tokenization for item…
