用行为词汇解耦用户意图,让推荐解释更清晰可读。
Behavior Tokens Speak Louder: Disentangled Explainable Recommendation with Behavior Vocabulary
- 将用户行为转化为可解释的离散令牌,构建行为词典。
- 在三个数据集上提升零样本推荐效果,生成连贯解释。
- 适合想提升推荐可解释性、集成复杂行为模式的研究者。
当前可解释推荐方法常依赖基于ID的表示,掩盖语义并限制语言模型在开放场景的应用。真实交互中用户意图多样且混合,协同信号与语言语义常不一致。为此,我们提出BEAT框架,将用户和物品行为离散化为可解释序列。通过向量量化自编码构建行为词典,从图表示中解耦宏观兴趣与微观意图。引入多层级语义监督,设计语义对齐正则化机制,将行为令牌直接嵌入冻结语言模型输入空间。在三个公开数据集上的实验表明,BEAT在零样本推荐中表现更优,并生成连贯、信息丰富的解释。分析显示,行为令牌捕捉细粒度语义,可即插即用集成复杂行为模式至大语言模型。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Recent advances in explainable recommendations have explored the integration of language models to analyze natural language rationales for user-item interactions. Despite their potential, existing methods often rely on ID-based representations that obscure semantic meaning and impose structural constraints on language models, thereby limiting their applicability in open-ended scenarios. These challenges are intensified by the complex nature of real-world interactions, where diverse user intents are entangled and collaborative signals rarely align with linguistic semantics. To overcome these limitations, we propose BEAT, a unified and transferable framework that tokenizes user and item behaviors into discrete, interpretable sequences. We construct a behavior vocabulary via a vector-quantized autoencoding process that disentangles macro-level interests and micro-level intentions from graph-based representations. We then introduce multi-level semantic supervision to bridge the gap between behavioral signals and language space. A semantic alignment regularization mechanism is designed to embed behavior tokens directly into the input space of frozen language models. Experiments on three public datasets show that BEAT improves zero-shot recommendation performance while generating coherent and informative explanations. Further analysis demonstrates that our behavior tokens capture fine-grained semantics and offer a plug-and-play interface for integrating complex behavior patterns into large language models.
