向量嵌入是许多推荐系统中用户-物品匹配的基础。为实现高效的在线推理,表示二值化(将潜在特征压缩为紧凑二进制序列)在降低内存占用和计算开销方面展现出显著潜力。然而,现有方法主要关注数值量化,忽视了由此带来的信息损失,常导致性能明显下降。本文研究图推荐系统中表示二值化的优化问题。研究发现,在嵌入二值化的各个阶段显式缓解信息损失能显著提升性能。基于此,我们提出改进框架 BiGeaR++,特别利用来自伪正样本的监督信号,融合真实物品数据与潜在嵌入样本。相比前代模型 BiGeaR,BiGeaR++ 引入细粒度推理蒸馏机制和有效的嵌入样本合成方法。在五个真实数据集上的实证评估表明,新设计可与其他模块无缝协同,相较 BiGeaR 实现约1%-10%的显著提升,达到当前最优水平。代码已开源:https://github.com/QueYork/BiGeaR-SS。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Learning vectorized embeddings is fundamental to many recommender systems for user-item matching. To enable efficient online inference, representation binarization, which embeds latent features into compact binary sequences, has recently shown significant promise in optimizing both memory usage and computational overhead. However, existing approaches primarily focus on numerical quantization, neglecting the associated information loss, which often results in noticeable performance degradation. To address these issues, we study the problem of graph representation binarization for efficient collaborative filtering. Our findings indicate that explicitly mitigating information loss at various stages of embedding binarization has a significant positive impact on performance. Building on these insights, we propose an enhanced framework, BiGeaR++, which specifically leverages supervisory signals from pseudo-positive samples, incorporating both real item data and latent embedding samples. Compared to its predecessor BiGeaR, BiGeaR++ introduces a fine-grained inference distillation mechanism and an effective embedding sample synthesis approach. Empirical evaluations across five real-world datasets demonstrate that the new designs in BiGeaR++ work seamlessly well with other modules, delivering substantial improvements of around 1%-10% over BiGeaR and thus achieving state-of-the-art performance compared to the competing methods. Our implementation is available at https://github.com/QueYork/BiGeaR-SS.
