BehaveGPT: A Foundation Model for Large-scale User Behavior Modeling
- 基于Transformer和新型DRO预训练,捕捉用户行为的时序与上下文关系。
- 在真实数据集上提升10%以上宏召回率与加权召回率,跨域适应能力强。
- 首次揭示用户行为模型的缩放规律,适合推荐、个性化系统研究者使用。
近年来,基础模型在语言和视觉领域取得突破,但在用户行为建模方面进展有限,主要受限于行为数据的复杂性及难以捕捉用户活动中的精细时序与上下文关系。为此,我们提出BehaveGPT,一种专为大规模用户行为预测设计的基础模型。该模型采用基于Transformer的架构与创新的DRO预训练范式,在海量用户行为数据上训练,可学习复杂行为模式并支持多种下游任务,包括下一步行为预测、长期生成与跨域适应。DRO预训练机制通过均衡建模头部与尾部行为,显著提升模型泛化与迁移能力。在真实世界数据集上的大量实验表明,BehaveGPT超越当前最优基线,宏召回率与加权召回率均提升超10%。此外,我们在Honor数据集上首次测量了用户行为领域的缩放规律,揭示了模型性能随数据量与参数量增长的变化趋势。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In recent years, foundational models have revolutionized the fields of language and vision, demonstrating remarkable abilities in understanding and generating complex data; however, similar advances in user behavior modeling have been limited, largely due to the complexity of behavioral data and the challenges involved in capturing intricate temporal and contextual relationships in user activities. To address this, we propose BehaveGPT, a foundational model designed specifically for large-scale user behavior prediction. Leveraging transformer-based architecture and a novel pretraining paradigm, BehaveGPT is trained on vast user behavior datasets, allowing it to learn complex behavior patterns and support a range of downstream tasks, including next behavior prediction, long-term generation, and cross-domain adaptation. Our approach introduces the DRO-based pretraining paradigm tailored for user behavior data, which improves model generalization and transferability by equitably modeling both head and tail behaviors. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that BehaveGPT outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, achieving more than a 10% improvement in macro and weighted recall, showcasing its ability to effectively capture and predict user behavior. Furthermore, we measure the scaling law in the user behavior domain for the first time on the Honor dataset, providing insights into how model performance scales with increased data and parameter sizes.
