用物品描述生成更精准推荐,支持意图控制
Generate and Instantiate What You Prefer: Text-Guided Diffusion for Sequential Recommendation
- 用文本嵌入构建物品向量,替代随机初始化的ID嵌入
- 在4个数据集上优于现有扩散模型推荐方法
- 可接入用户意图指令,实现精准可控推荐
近年来,基于扩散的生成式推荐系统在序列推荐任务中展现出提升新物品泛化能力的潜力。然而,现有方法面临两大挑战:一是对目标物品的数据分布建模不一致;二是难以引入历史交互之外的更多控制信号。这源于ID嵌入信息贫乏,需随机初始化且限制了额外控制信号的融入。为此,我们提出iDreamRec,通过详细物品文本描述与先进文本嵌入模型(TEM)构建更具语义的物品嵌入。更重要的是,将物品描述转换为与TEM对齐的嵌入后,可将用户意图指令作为控制信号,引导目标物品生成。在四个数据集上的实验表明,iDreamRec不仅超越现有基于扩散的生成式推荐器,还支持意图指令的融入,实现更精准有效的推荐生成。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Recent advancements in generative recommendation systems, particularly in the realm of sequential recommendation tasks, have shown promise in enhancing generalization to new items. Among these approaches, diffusion-based generative recommendation has emerged as an effective tool, leveraging its ability to capture data distributions and generate high-quality samples. Despite effectiveness, two primary challenges have been identified: 1) the lack of consistent modeling of data distribution for oracle items; and 2) the difficulty in scaling to more informative control signals beyond historical interactions. These issues stem from the uninformative nature of ID embeddings, which necessitate random initialization and limit the incorporation of additional control signals. To address these limitations, we propose iDreamRec to involve more concrete prior knowledge to establish item embeddings, particularly through detailed item text descriptions and advanced Text Embedding Models (TEM). More importantly, by converting item descriptions into embeddings aligned with TEM, we enable the integration of intention instructions as control signals to guide the generation of oracle items. Experimental results on four datasets demonstrate that iDreamRec not only outperforms existing diffusion-based generative recommenders but also facilitates the incorporation of intention instructions for more precise and effective recommendation generation.
