Re2A: Situated Conversational Recommendation via Rubric-based Preference Reasoning and Alignment

This work introduces rubric-based preference reasoning, which uses automated rubrics to guide the model toward producing explicit preference states, and proposes a preference-conditioned optimization to align response generation with dual objectives: user preference satisfaction and situation consistency.
