Graph Foundation Models for Recommendation: A Comprehensive Survey

The article surveys graph foundation models (GFMs) for recommender systems, highlighting how they combine graph neural networks (GNNs) and large language models (LLMs) to better capture user-item relationships and textual data. It offers a taxonomy of current GFM approaches, discusses methodological details, and identifies key challenges and future research directions. The survey aims to provide comprehensive insights into the evolving landscape of GFM-based recommender systems.

Personalized and Multi-View Representation for Federated Cold-Start Recommendation

The paper introduces PMFRec, a federated cold-start recommendation framework that addresses personalization, compositionality, and communication inefficiencies. PMFRec generates user-specific item representations from attribute features, employs a global multi-view encoder with adaptive gating and orthogonality to capture complementary semantics, and fuses collaborative and attribute knowledge into a single exchanged representation. Experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that PMFRec outperforms strong baselines in cold-item recommendation while improving user-level fairness, warm-scenario adaptability, and robustness under Local Differential Privacy.
