arXiv:2607. 17017v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As scalability becomes increasingly important in recommendation modeling, recent architectures have advanced the modeling of two broad sources of ranking signals along separate paths: non-sequence features, including user, item, context, and cross features; and sequence features from user behavior histories.

The paper introduces CRAFT, a Contextual Residual Adaptive Feature Transport block that treats unified recommendation models as a discrete context‑conditioned representation evolution process. By summarizing non‑sequential features into a reliability‑aware contextual field, CRAFT generates residual displacement and memory‑preserving signals to control intent and sequence representations. Experiments on the TAAC2026 competition show CRAFT achieving a test AUC of 0.838090, surpassing the previous best, and further improvements with deeper or wider models.

arXiv:2607. 22700v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Post-click conversion rate (PCVR) prediction is central to industrial recommendation, but remains challenged by the structural mismatch between sparse, unordered multi-field features and long, domain-specific behavior histories.

SequenceO1 is an end‑to‑end framework that enables ultra‑long (up to 100K interactions) sequence modeling for recommendation systems. It compresses raw user histories into a fixed‑size sketch using Sketch Attention and then models short‑term and long‑term interests with Target‑to‑History Cross Attention. The system incorporates low‑rank caching, batching, pipeline lift, and a FlashSA kernel to keep training and inference efficient, achieving consistent offline and online performance gains when deployed at full traffic on Douyin.

arXiv:2607. 12281v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Transformer-style architectures are increasingly adopted for industrial recommendation systems, yet they inherit a design premise misaligned with the task: generative models rely on per-token autoregressive prediction, which justifies maintaining large intermediate tensors that scale with sequence length.
