Scaling E-Commerce Attribute Extraction with Parallel Decoding

The paper presents a two‑stage large language model pipeline for e‑commerce attribute extraction. First, it discovers a compact, ranked set of purchase‑discriminative attributes for each product category; second, it extracts those attribute values from catalog text using a fine‑tuned Qwen3‑4B model with Hyper‑Parallel Decoding. The approach attains 85% extraction accuracy while cutting inference costs by 92%, enabling scalable production use and producing consistent, comparable product knowledge bases.

Query Brand Entity Linking in E-Commerce Search

The paper "Query Brand Entity Linking in E-Commerce Search" addresses the challenge of matching short, unstructured user search queries to the correct brand entities in large e‑commerce catalogs. It proposes two scalable solutions: a cascaded pipeline that first detects brand mentions and then disambiguates them, and a single‑stage extreme multiclass classifier that directly maps queries to brand identifiers. Extensive multilingual evaluation and an online experiment show that both methods significantly improve brand recall while preserving high precision, resulting in measurable gains in customer engagement.

AIGP: An LLM-Based Framework for Long-Term Value Alignment in E-Commerce Pricing

arXiv:2606. 26787v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditional dynamic pricing models in large-scale e-commerce suffer from limited interpretability, poor utilization of unstructured information, and misalignment with long-term business objectives such as cumulative Gross Merchandise Value (GMV), Return on Investment (ROI) and milestone achievement.

LLMs as Feature Engineers for Text-and-Tabular Prediction

The paper presents an iterative framework that uses large language models (LLMs) to automatically extract interpretable, schema‑bound categorical features from unstructured text for use in tabular prediction models. A generator LLM proposes semantic definitions, an extractor LLM materializes the features, and a downstream tabular model evaluates their predictive performance, with error‑driven natural‑language feedback guiding the search. Across three public datasets, the error‑driven loop speeds up feature discovery up to three times and the resulting features outperform any subset when combined with TF‑IDF and dense embeddings, while also providing instance‑level interpretability through SHAP importance rankings and a semantic audit trail.

LentEx: Generalizable Latent Entity Extraction via Synthetic Data and Instruction-Tuned LLMs

LentEx is a new framework for latent entity extraction that uses synthetic data generation and instruction fine‑tuning to train smaller, efficient large language models. By creating diverse, contextually rich synthetic examples through a template‑based approach, LentEx overcomes the lack of labeled datasets and achieves strong performance, surpassing state‑of‑the‑art models on the MTEB Clustering Benchmark. The method also generalizes well to unseen domains, making it useful for tasks such as retrieval‑augmented generation, customer persona analysis, and knowledge graph enrichment.
