提出新正则化方法,提升大规模广告排序的稳定性和效果
Beyond Self-Consistency: Loss-Balanced Perturbation-Based Regularization Improves Industrial-Scale Ads Ranking
- 通过小扰动保持上下文,用损失平衡机制增强模型鲁棒性
- 在百亿级广告系统中实验,性能优于传统自一致性方法
- 适合处理稀疏标签、多场景分布的大规模工业模型
基于扰动的正则化技术能有效应对工业级大模型中的稀疏标签问题,强调模型预测对扰动的稳定性与不变性。现有主流方法为多种自一致性正则化(SCR),即在保留上下文的前提下对输入进行微小修改,并通过辅助损失函数强制预测一致。本文首次将此类技术成功应用于大规模广告排序模型,提出一种新型正则化算法——损失平衡小扰动正则化(LSPR),可适用于任意深度学习模型。通过大规模工业实验与数值分析,我们发现LSPR在不同分组及信号可用性设置下均持续优于SCR。最终,我们在一个百亿级工业排序系统中成功部署LSPR,据我们所知,这是首个此类应用,特别针对多场景(如不同表面、地理区域、客户端等)带来的可扩展性挑战进行了设计。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Perturbation-based regularization techniques address many challenges in industrial-scale large models, particularly with sparse labels, and emphasize consistency and invariance for perturbation in model predictions. One of the popular regularization techniques has been various forms of self-consistency, which involve making small modifications to input data while preserving contextual information and enforcing similar predictions through auxiliary loss functions. In this work, we explore the first successful application of perturbation-based regularization algorithms in large-scale ads ranking models, and further propose a novel regularization algorithm, namely, Loss-Balanced Small Perturbation Regularization (LSPR) that can be used in potentially any deep learning model. We have successfully demonstrate that both Self-Consistency Regularization approaches (SCR) and LSPR are scalable and can improve ads delivery systems. By conducting industrial-scale experiments, and numerical analysis, we additionally show that our proposed LSPR, performs consistently better compared to SCR, across various groups and signal availability setups. Finally, we report a successful application of the proposed LSPR in a billion-scale industrial ranking system, which to the best of our knowledge, is the first of its kind, and it is specially designed to address the various scalability challenges (e.g, various surfaces, geological locations, clients and so on) as we will mention in this paper.
