arXiv:2607. 25216v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semantic ID-based generative recommendation tokenizes each item into a sequence of discrete semantic IDs and predicts the next item by generating semantic IDs.
arXiv:2607. 25209v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative recommendation commonly represents items using fixed-length semantic identifiers (SIDs) constructed through clustering and quantization.
arXiv:2512. 10388v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Conventional Sequential Recommender Systems (SRS) typically assign unique hash IDs (HID) to construct item embeddings, which mainly capture collaborative signals from historical user-item interactions.
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.
FineSID introduces a new quantization framework for semantic identifier learning in generative recommendation systems. By replacing the traditional Top‑1 hard assignment with a soft, differentiable approach, it distributes gradient updates across all codewords, leading to balanced codebook optimization and reduced identifier collisions. Experiments on public benchmarks show that FineSID improves codebook utilization and recommendation accuracy without relying on complex initialization strategies.
arXiv:2608. 10929v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cross-domain recommendation (CDR) transfers preference knowledge across related domains, but federated deployment makes cross-domain alignment difficult because the behavioral anchors that align item spaces, such as overlapping users and shared interaction signals, are often sparse, unavailable, or privacy-sensitive across clients.
arXiv:2606. 25147v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: User modeling in industrial recommender systems typically produces dense embeddings, which suffer from representational constraints inherent to fixed-dimensional vectors.
arXiv:2607. 24995v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Semantic IDs (SIDs) are now a central component of generative recommendation.
arXiv:2509. 25522v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent advancements in generative models have allowed the emergence of a promising paradigm for recommender systems (RS), known as Generative Recommendation (GR), which tries to unify rich item semantics and collaborative filtering signals.
The paper introduces Evo-Rec, a three‑stage framework that improves generative recommendation by learning better reasoning traces for Semantic ID (SID) generation. It first aligns SIDs with textual and behavioral contexts, then selects candidate reasoning traces that improve ground‑truth item prediction, and finally refines the reasoning policy via reinforcement learning with catalog‑constrained generation and ranking‑aware feedback. Experiments on Amazon Review datasets show Evo‑Rec consistently outperforms existing discriminative, generative, and reasoning‑enhanced recommenders across all metrics.
arXiv:2608. 11980v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semantic-ID generative recommenders represent each item as a short sequence of discrete semantic tokens and predict the next item by autoregressively generating this token sequence.
arXiv:2511.22707v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In web environments, user preferences are often refined progressively as users move from browsing broad categories to exploring specific item...
arXiv:2603. 23183v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in generative recommendation have leveraged pretrained LLMs by formulating sequential recommendation as autoregressive generation over a unified token space comprising language tokens and itemic identifiers, where each item is represented by a compact sequence of discrete tokens, namely Semantic IDs (SIDs).
