Refine-POI introduces a reinforcement fine-tuned framework for next point-of-interest recommendation that tackles two key issues: topology-blind indexing of semantic IDs and the limitation of supervised fine-tuning to top‑1 predictions. It uses a hierarchical self‑organizing map to generate topology‑aware semantic IDs and a policy‑gradient approach to produce top‑k recommendation lists. Experiments on three real‑world datasets show that Refine‑POI outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines, combining LLM reasoning with accurate, explainable recommendations.
arXiv:2602. 07774v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent studies increasingly explore Large Language Models (LLMs) as a new paradigm for recommendation systems due to their scalability and world knowledge.
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: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.
