Unleash LLMs Potential for Sequential Recommendation by Coordinating Dual Dynamic Index Mechanism

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces ED$^2$, an end‑to‑end large language model–based sequential recommender that integrates index generation and recommendation through a dual dynamic index mechanism. It employs a multigrained token regulator for alignment supervision and custom instruction‑tuning tasks to capture high‑order user‑item interactions. Experiments on three public datasets show ED$^2$ outperforms baselines with an average 19.62% gain in Hit‑Rate and 21.11% in NDCG.

Preserving Item Semantics for Free: Rethinking Token Initialization in LLM-Based Generative Recommendation

arXiv:2608. 07816v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in generative recommendation (GR) leverage large language models (LLMs) as recommender backbones, enabling LLMs to directly generate recommendations conditioned on item-interaction histories.

Reasoning over Semantic IDs Enhances Generative Recommendation

arXiv:2603. 23183v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in generative recommendation have leveraged pretrained LLMs by formulating sequential recommendation as autoregressive generation over a unified token space comprising language tokens and itemic identifiers, where each item is represented by a compact sequence of discrete tokens, namely Semantic IDs (SIDs).

LIGE-GR: A Smooth Leap from Ranking to Generative Recommendation in the LLM Era

LIGE‑GR is a framework that transitions traditional ranking‑based recommender systems to a generative, listwise approach inspired by large language models. It extends existing pointwise recommendation models into a listwise generation system, enabling sequence‑level optimization without overhauling the entire infrastructure. Experiments on Instagram Reels and Facebook Video show modest gains in user time spent—1.14 % and 0.72 % respectively—while adding only slight inference overhead.
