MARS: Multi-Agent Re-ranking for Repeat-Order Food Delivery Recommendation

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in recommender systems, but it is often unclear how much performance can be obtained from strong pre-trained backbones alone when they are placed inside a structured recommendation pipeline. In this paper, we present MARS, a modular multi-agent re-ranking framework for repeat-order food delivery recommendation.

GALA: Generative Aligned Learning for Adaptive Multimodal Representation in the Taobao Shangou Recommender System

arXiv:2607. 29213v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern recommender systems in food delivery increasingly leverage multimodal signals, including images, text, and user interaction histories, to enhance user experience, yet effective fusion of these heterogeneous modalities remains challenging, hindering both the joint modeling of multimodal signals and adaptation to evolving user intent.
