Distribution-Level Contrastive Supervision for Generative Recommendation

SODA, a plug-and-play alignment framework that adopts a BPR-style contrastive objective to align recommender representations with target-side distributional representations against negative ones, is developed and demonstrated that SODA consistently strengthens diverse generative recommendation architectures.

Distribution-Level Contrastive Supervision for Generative Recommendation

Recent generative recommenders improve scalability by retrieving items through token generation instead of traditional ranking over large candidate sets. Yet their training signals are still dominated by discrete code prediction, which overlooks the soft assignment information naturally produced by the tokenizer. This...

Using Context Is Not Enough: Test-Time Training for Personalized Reward Modeling

Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) aligns large language models (LLMs) with human preferences, yet most pipelines learn a single reward model that overlooks individual differences in preferences. Personalized reward models (PRMs) address this by conditioning rewards on user-specific feedback, most common...

Forgotten History or Test-of-Time? Retrospect and Prospect on RAG from an IR Perspective

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is widely regarded as a novel paradigm born from the limitations of large language models (LLMs)--a mechanism to ground their outputs in external knowledge. This view, however, is incomplete when considered within a broader historical context. In this paper, we argue that the core i...
