arXiv:2608. 15429v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Prior embedding models for sequential recommendation typically operate within a homogeneous action space, limiting their ability to capture cross-surface behavioral signals spanning distinct behavioral domains.
arXiv:2606. 25147v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: User modeling in industrial recommender systems typically produces dense embeddings, which suffer from representational constraints inherent to fixed-dimensional vectors.
The paper introduces CRAFT, a Contextual Residual Adaptive Feature Transport block that treats unified recommendation models as a discrete context‑conditioned representation evolution process. By summarizing non‑sequential features into a reliability‑aware contextual field, CRAFT generates residual displacement and memory‑preserving signals to control intent and sequence representations. Experiments on the TAAC2026 competition show CRAFT achieving a test AUC of 0.838090, surpassing the previous best, and further improvements with deeper or wider models.
arXiv:2606. 20554v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative recommendation is an emerging paradigm that has shown promise in industrial recommendation systems, aiming to predict users' next interactions from their historical behaviors.
Sequential recommendation aims to predict users' next interaction with items by analyzing their historical behavior. However, the limited quality of item representations remains a critical bottleneck.

arXiv:2607. 24804v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recommendation systems have undergone significant transformations in the past years.
arXiv:2604. 25834v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: With the rapid development of the Internet, users have increasingly higher expectations for the recommendation accuracy of online content consumption platforms.
The paper introduces DSRec, a dual‑interest sequential recommendation model that separates item representations into long‑term and short‑term semantic contexts. Long‑term embeddings capture stable preferences through historical aggregation, while short‑term embeddings focus on local session intent modulated by inter‑click time intervals. Each branch is processed by a distinct State Space Model— a full‑sequence Mamba for long‑term modeling and a time‑modulated SSM for short‑term dynamics— and a residual cross‑fusion mechanism aligns the two granularities while preserving their independence. Experiments on public benchmarks show that DSRec outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods.
arXiv:2608. 16797v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Industrial recommenders rely on two model families that have evolved largely independently: feature-interaction models over multi-field user/item features, and sequential models over user-behavior histories.
arXiv:2607. 10016v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used as backbone architectures for recommender systems because of their strong sequence modeling and representation learning capabilities.
arXiv:2606. 26277v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sequential user behavior modeling is widely adopted in industrial recommender systems; however, significant gaps remain in financial services, where pre-login web interactions and authenticated in-app experiences differ drastically.
arXiv:2607. 14192v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As recommender systems mature in the past few years, their optimization objectives have evolved from a primary focusing on short-term behavioral signals to a broader emphasis on long-term user engagement and retention.
