通过细粒度子项流行度提升音乐推荐的新颖性,兼顾准确率。
Balancing Accuracy and Novelty with Sub-Item Popularity
- 用子项级别流行度替代物品级流行度,捕捉更精细的重复模式。
- 在不降低准确率前提下,个性化新颖性显著提升,最高增益达18.7%。
- 适合追求长期用户粘性的音乐推荐系统开发者使用。
在音乐推荐领域,序列推荐模型能有效捕捉消费动态。用户频繁重复听同一首歌,传统方法通过个性化流行度分数(PPS)量化此行为,但会过度强化已知内容,抑制新颖性发现。为此,本文基于RecJPQ框架,将物品分解为子项,构建子项级别个性化流行度(sPPS)。该方法通过子嵌入共享重复模式,实现对准确率与个性化新颖性的显式控制。实验表明,sPPS在多个数据集上均显著优于传统PPS,个性化新颖性提升12.3%~18.7%,同时保持高准确率。代码与实验公开于https://github.com/sisinflab/Sub-id-Popularity。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
In the realm of music recommendation, sequential recommenders have shown promise in capturing the dynamic nature of music consumption. A key characteristic of this domain is repetitive listening, where users frequently replay familiar tracks. To capture these repetition patterns, recent research has introduced Personalised Popularity Scores (PPS), which quantify user-specific preferences based on historical frequency. While PPS enhances relevance in recommendation, it often reinforces already-known content, limiting the system's ability to surface novel or serendipitous items - key elements for fostering long-term user engagement and satisfaction. To address this limitation, we build upon RecJPQ, a Transformer-based framework initially developed to improve scalability in large-item catalogues through sub-item decomposition. We repurpose RecJPQ's sub-item architecture to model personalised popularity at a finer granularity. This allows us to capture shared repetition patterns across sub-embeddings - latent structures not accessible through item-level popularity alone. We propose a novel integration of sub-ID-level personalised popularity within the RecJPQ framework, enabling explicit control over the trade-off between accuracy and personalised novelty. Our sub-ID-level PPS method (sPPS) consistently outperforms item-level PPS by achieving significantly higher personalised novelty without compromising recommendation accuracy.
