SCOReD: Student-Aware CoT Optimization for Recommendation Distillation

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2607. 05734v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Chain-of-thought (CoT) distillation in the recommendation domain is a necessary precursor to RL training, but raw teacher traces are ill-suited to this task.

Towards Efficient Reasoning in LLM-Based Recommender Systems via Model Merging

Large language model-based recommender systems are increasingly adopting slow-thinking models that generate step-by-step reasoning before making predictions, often achieving higher accuracy than fast-thinking models that predict directly. However, their reasoning traces are often unnecessarily verbose, increasing inference costs without commensurate accuracy gains.
