Diagnosing and Mitigating Retrieval Bottlenecks in LLM-Based Cold-Start Recommendation

arXiv:2606. 29947v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used as rerankers in recommender systems, with the expectation that semantic understanding will help in cold-start and long-tail regimes.

LORA-CRAFT: Cross-layer Rank Adaptation via Frozen Tucker Decomposition of Pre-trained Attention Weights

arXiv:2602. 17510v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce LoRA-CRAFT (\textbf{C}ross-layer \textbf{R}ank \textbf{A}daptation via \textbf{F}rozen \textbf{T}ucker), abbreviated CRAFT throughout, an extremely parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT) method that applies Tucker tensor decomposition to pre-trained attention weight matrices stacked across transformer layers and trains only small square adaptation matrices on the resulting frozen Tucker factors.
