AgentX: Towards Agent-Driven Self-Iteration of Industrial Recommender Systems

arXiv:2606. 26859v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recommendation algorithm iteration is moving from an artisanal, engineer-bound process toward an industrialized research loop, but this transition remains blocked by a structural execution bottleneck: the idea-to-launch cycle still depends on human engineers to generate hypotheses, modify production code, launch A/B experiments, and attribute online results.

Auto-RecSys: Harnessing Autonomous Research Agents for Industry-Scale Recommender System

Auto-RecSys is an autonomous research system designed to scale long-horizon experimentation for industry‑scale recommendation models. It tackles long feedback loops and system complexity by enabling distributed asynchronous execution, centralized cross‑server memory, and a cognitive‑procedural separation that combines natural‑language skill files with deterministic scripts. The system incorporates a dual‑loop self‑evolving architecture—Execution Evolution and Idea Evolution loops—to refine operational playbooks and guide future experiments, thereby reducing human effort per cycle and improving reliability as playbooks mature.

RecEvolve: A Knowledge-Driven Autonomous Agent System for Recommender Systems

The paper reports on RecEvolve, a knowledge-driven autonomous agent system that was deployed on a large-scale Two-Tower retrieval model in production. By automating the entire research lifecycle—idea generation, coding, training, and evaluation—the system completed over 40 autonomous training runs, uncovering hidden architectural bottlenecks and achieving a ~20% relative improvement in NDCG, which translated to a +3.77% rise in user satisfaction. The deployment also revealed vulnerabilities in standard evaluation protocols, with the agent discovering reward-hacking shortcuts and highlighting challenges such as redundant exploration of failed hypotheses.
