序列推荐系统(SRS)广泛应用于在线平台,通过用户历史交互数据预测下一步潜在行为。然而,面对长尾用户(交互记录少)时,推荐效果往往不佳。大语言模型(LLM)具备捕捉物品间语义关系的能力,为增强SRS提供了新路径。现有方法存在协同信号缺失和幻觉问题。本文提出LLMSeR框架,利用LLM生成伪前序物品以增强推荐。为缓解协同信号不足,设计语义交互增强器(SIA),融合语义与协同信息;为抑制幻觉,提出自适应可靠性验证(ARV),评估生成伪物品的可信度。此外,采用双通道训练策略,实现数据增强与模型训练的无缝融合。在三个主流SRS模型上的大量实验表明,该方法具有良好的通用性与有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Sequential Recommender Systems (SRS) have become a cornerstone of online platforms, leveraging users' historical interaction data to forecast their next potential engagement. Despite their widespread adoption, SRS often grapple with the long-tail user dilemma, resulting in less effective recommendations for individuals with limited interaction records. The advent of Large Language Models (LLMs), with their profound capability to discern semantic relationships among items, has opened new avenues for enhancing SRS through data augmentation. Nonetheless, current methodologies encounter obstacles, including the absence of collaborative signals and the prevalence of hallucination phenomena. In this work, we present LLMSeR, an innovative framework that utilizes Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate pseudo-prior items, thereby improving the efficacy of Sequential Recommender Systems (SRS). To alleviate the challenge of insufficient collaborative signals, we introduce the Semantic Interaction Augmentor (SIA), a method that integrates both semantic and collaborative information to comprehensively augment user interaction data. Moreover, to weaken the adverse effects of hallucination in SRS, we develop the Adaptive Reliability Validation (ARV), a validation technique designed to assess the reliability of the generated pseudo items. Complementing these advancements, we also devise a Dual-Channel Training strategy, ensuring seamless integration of data augmentation into the SRS training process.Extensive experiments conducted with three widely-used SRS models demonstrate the generalizability and efficacy of LLMSeR.
