DeGRe is a dense‑supervised generative reranking framework designed to improve multi‑stage recommender systems by addressing label bias and credit assignment issues. It uses an offline Lookahead Evaluator with beam search to generate dense supervision signals, which are distilled into a lightweight Online Generator that can perform efficient greedy decoding at inference time. Experiments show that DeGRe outperforms baselines on public benchmarks and industrial datasets, and it has been successfully deployed on Taobao Flash Shopping to enhance online recommendations.

MoEMB introduces a mixture‑of‑experts (MoE) approach to scale universal multimodal embeddings (UME) without increasing the size of the output vector or relying on autoregressive decoding. By expanding encoder capacity along the expert axis, MoEMB achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on MMEB‑V2 and MRMR benchmarks with only 3 B active parameters, outperforming TTE‑based methods that use more than four times as many active parameters and require significantly more compute. The paper also presents the first comprehensive study of adaptive computation for MoE‑based embeddings, exploring training‑time and inference‑time strategies to further improve efficiency for large‑scale retrieval and recommendation systems.
