The paper introduces Evo-Rec, a three‑stage framework that improves generative recommendation by learning better reasoning traces for Semantic ID (SID) generation. It first aligns SIDs with textual and behavioral contexts, then selects candidate reasoning traces that improve ground‑truth item prediction, and finally refines the reasoning policy via reinforcement learning with catalog‑constrained generation and ranking‑aware feedback. Experiments on Amazon Review datasets show Evo‑Rec consistently outperforms existing discriminative, generative, and reasoning‑enhanced recommenders across all metrics.

The paper introduces Evo-Rec, a three‑stage framework that improves generative recommendation by learning better reasoning traces for Semantic ID (SID) generation. First, it aligns SIDs with textual and behavioral contexts; second, it samples and selects reasoning traces that improve ground‑truth item prediction via supervised fine‑tuning; third, it refines the reasoning policy with reinforcement learning using catalog‑constrained generation and ranking‑aware feedback. Experiments on three Amazon Review datasets show Evo‑Rec consistently outperforms discriminative, generative, and other reasoning‑enhanced recommenders across all metrics.
