arXiv:2606. 24042v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recommender systems often induce filter bubbles and semantic homogenization by monolithically optimizing for immediate user engagement.
Recommender systems often induce filter bubbles and semantic homogenization by monolithically optimizing for immediate user engagement. Standard single-objective models, including traditional Deep Q-Networks, are ill-equipped to navigate the trade-offs between platform retention and critical societal values like information diversity and provider fairness.
MiCRo is a two‑stage framework that improves personalized preference learning for large language models. It first uses a context‑aware mixture model to capture diverse human preferences from large binary preference datasets, then applies an online routing strategy to dynamically adjust mixture weights based on context, reducing ambiguity. Experiments on multiple datasets show that MiCRo captures diverse preferences and enhances downstream personalization.

arXiv:2607. 09641v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Financial anomaly detection suffers from extreme class imbalance, causing traditional single-objective algorithms to exhibit ``fraud collapse'', defaulting to the majority class and failing to balance anomaly interdiction with customer friction.
arXiv:2606. 19134v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present Pareto Q-Learning with Reward Machines (PQLRM), a multi-objective reinforcement learning algorithm for tasks whose reward structure is specified by a set of reward machines (RMs).
arXiv:2606. 19521v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In multi-task learning, handling an increasing number of objectives can quickly become challenging, both in terms of the computational resources and the decision maker's capacity to choose appropriate trade-offs.
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.
arXiv:2506. 13702v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Single-trajectory preference optimization methods learn from datasets of ((prompt, response, reward)) tuples, offering a practical alternative to pairwise preference learning by directly leveraging scalar feedback.
