arXiv:2606. 15277v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Graph-based recommender systems are highly effective at extracting collaborative signals from user--item interactions, and federated learning (FL) allows these models to be trained while preserving user privacy.
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.
arXiv:2606. 07526v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown strong potential for recommendation (LLMRec) due to their powerful reasoning and generalization abilities.
arXiv:2608. 10929v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cross-domain recommendation (CDR) transfers preference knowledge across related domains, but federated deployment makes cross-domain alignment difficult because the behavioral anchors that align item spaces, such as overlapping users and shared interaction signals, are often sparse, unavailable, or privacy-sensitive across clients.
arXiv:2601. 21369v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent studies of federated graph foundational models (FedGFMs) break the idealized and untenable assumption of having centralized data storage to train graph foundation models, and accommodate the reality of distributed, privacy-restricted data silos.
arXiv:2601. 02366v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Graph-based recommendation has achieved great success in recent years.
