DeepAffinity: Long-Term Aspect Preference Prediction in eCommerce using Small Language Models

DeepAffinity is a model designed to predict eCommerce users’ future preferences for product aspects such as brand, size, and color, treating this as a temporal prediction problem. It uses small language models with structured prompts and specialized prediction heads, outperforming standard generative fine‑tuning and general‑purpose open‑source LLMs that lack task‑specific tuning. The approach improves recommendation quality on a large multinational eCommerce platform.

Beyond Co-purchase Relation: Evolution of Complementary Recommendations at Allegro

The paper introduces AlleCompanion, a large‑scale retrieval framework for complementary product recommendations at Allegro.com. It addresses the challenge of noisy co‑purchase data by combining data‑level filtering, a category‑constrained Two Tower architecture, and a multi‑source Complementary Categories Mapping (ComCat) that incorporates expert rules, human feedback, LLM reasoning, and statistical mining. Experiments show that these explicit category constraints and neural models effectively reduce noise, improving recommendation relevance and driving significant GMV growth for both organic discovery and sponsored placements.

Beyond Co-purchase Relation: Evolution of Complementary Recommendations at Allegro

The paper introduces AlleCompanion, a large‑scale retrieval framework used by Allegro.com to improve complementary product recommendations. It tackles the problem of noisy co‑purchase data by applying data‑level filtering, a category‑constrained Two Tower architecture, and a Category Adapter that limits candidates to logically complementary categories. The system also incorporates a multi‑source Complementary Categories Mapping (ComCat) that blends expert rules, human feedback, LLM reasoning, and statistical mining to refine recommendations, resulting in higher GMV for organic discovery and increased revenue from sponsored placements.
