arXiv:2608. 07816v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in generative recommendation (GR) leverage large language models (LLMs) as recommender backbones, enabling LLMs to directly generate recommendations conditioned on item-interaction histories.
arXiv:2606. 15277v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Graph-based recommender systems are highly effective at extracting collaborative signals from user--item interactions, and federated learning (FL) allows these models to be trained while preserving user privacy.
The paper introduces ELMRec, an enhanced LLM-based recommender that improves high-order interaction awareness by using whole-word embeddings to better interpret graph-constructed user-item interactions without graph pre-training. It also identifies that LLMs tend to prioritize earlier user interactions over recent ones and proposes a reranking solution. ELMRec achieves superior performance compared to state-of-the-art methods in both direct and sequential recommendation tasks.

REGER is a unified framework that enhances generative recommendation by explicitly modeling inter-item relations through semantic pretraining, history encoding, and SID generation. It pretrains the model to generate semantic neighbors’ IDs, uses combined global and local attention to capture historical context, and introduces a hierarchical preference decomposition over the SID prefix tree. The approach also distills a discriminative teacher’s full conditional distributions to improve next-token predictions, yielding consistent performance gains on real-world datasets.
arXiv:2606. 07526v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown strong potential for recommendation (LLMRec) due to their powerful reasoning and generalization abilities.
arXiv:2608.20801v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While Large Language Models (LLMs) have significantly advanced reranking in recommendation, effectively leveraging item-side information remains chal...
FacetCRS is a conversational recommender system that tackles the filter‑bubble problem by learning multi‑faceted user preferences—entity, word, context, and review facets—through natural language interactions. The framework adaptively models these preference facets and incorporates external knowledge to provide diverse recommendations. Experiments on two benchmark datasets show that FacetCRS outperforms existing methods in reducing filter bubbles and improving recommendation quality.
