Recently, Generative Recommenders (GRs) have emerged as a transformative recommendation paradigm by replacing traditional item IDs with semantic indices (SIDs). Owing to the exceptional generative capabilities of diffusion models, a few pioneering works explore developing GRs with diffusion architectures as the backbone.
Positional encoding is a fundamental component of Transformer-based generative recommendation models, where user histories are modeled as autoregressive item sequences. Most positional encoding methods are inherited from natural language processing and mainly represent discrete item order.
