FacetCRS: Multi-Faceted Preference Learning for Pricking Filter Bubbles in Conversational Recommender System

FacetCRS is a conversational recommender system that tackles the filter‑bubble problem by learning multi‑faceted user preferences—entity, word, context, and review facets—through natural language interactions. The framework adaptively models these preference facets and incorporates external knowledge to provide diverse recommendations. Experiments on two benchmark datasets show that FacetCRS outperforms existing methods in reducing filter bubbles and improving recommendation quality.

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.
