arXiv:2607. 28971v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Contrastive learning is widely used for user modeling in large-scale recommender systems, where standard in-batch negatives implicitly assume universal exposure that any user can be shown any item.
arXiv:2607. 27475v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In modern recommendation systems, retrieval serves as a primary stage responsible for filtering billions of candidate items down to thousands prior to refined ranking.
arXiv:2606. 20280v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Leveraging Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) via contrastive learning has become a mainstream paradigm for improving the performance of Universal Multimodal Retrieval (UMR).
arXiv:2608. 17632v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) can both expand underspecified queries and encode text as dense representations, suggesting a unified model for query expansion and retrieval.
arXiv:2607. 19357v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in recommender systems (RS) have shown substantial performance gains through generative modelling.
arXiv:2606. 02737v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Dense retrieval models exhibit positional bias: retrieval effectiveness degrades when relevant information appears later in a passage (Zeng et al.
