arXiv:2607. 24025v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transformer architectures have achieved remarkable success across diverse domains; however, directly applying their standard self-attention mechanism to recommendation often yields suboptimal performance, sometimes even trailing behind well-designed simple recommendation models.

arXiv:2603. 17450v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sequential Recommendation (SR) in multimodal settings typically relies on small frozen pretrained encoders, which limits semantic capacity and prevents Collaborative Filtering (CF) signals from being fully integrated into item representations.

arXiv:2607. 26832v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Algorithmic news personalization in regional markets often fails because modern deep learning models require massive interaction data while real-world news has a short Time-to-Live (TTL < 48 h) and shallow article pools.

arXiv:2607. 20214v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The quadratic $N\times N$ attention score matrix remains a central obstacle to extending Transformers to longer input lengths.

arXiv:2412. 20802v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recommender systems are widely used in the digital landscape to match users with content fitting their preferences.
By Aurore Archimbaud, Andreas Alfons, Ines Wilms
Modern recommender systems are typically based on deep learning (DL) models, where a dense encoder learns representations of users and items. As a result, these systems often suffer from the black-box nature and computational complexity of the underlying models, making it difficult to systematically enhance their recommendation capabilities.

arXiv:2403. 00802v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Production-grade recommender systems rely heavily on a large-scale corpus used by online media services, including Netflix, Pinterest, and Amazon.

arXiv:2607. 22665v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine unlearning is becoming increasingly critical in the context of data privacy regulations, particularly for recommendation systems that are directly trained on user interaction data.

arXiv:2606. 06225v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Collaborative filtering and graph-based recommendation models are highly effective because they leverage observed user interactions, but this dependence creates a fundamental cold-start challenge when newly added content has no interaction history.
