- 通过反馈优化策略,实现推荐系统的自我进化
- 适合做智能推荐、对话式系统的研究者和开发者
智能推荐系统利用大语言模型(LLMs)建模复杂用户行为并支持个性化决策。然而,现有方法主要依赖稀疏且嘈杂的显式用户-项目交互来建模偏好变化,难以反映用户与项目间的实时相互影响。为此,我们提出RecNet,一种自演化偏好传播框架,能主动在相关用户与项目间传播实时偏好更新。RecNet包含两个互补阶段:前向阶段中,中心化偏好路由机制通过路由器代理整合偏好更新,并动态传播至最相关的代理;为确保传播偏好的准确与个性化,引入个性化偏好接收机制,结合消息缓存与可优化的规则型记忆过滤器,基于过往经验与兴趣选择性吸收偏好。后向阶段采用反馈驱动的传播优化机制,模拟多智能体强化学习框架,利用LLMs进行信用分配、梯度分析与模块级优化,实现传播策略的持续自演化。在多种场景下的大量实验表明,RecNet在建模推荐系统中的偏好传播方面具有显著有效性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Agentic recommender systems leverage Large Language Models (LLMs) to model complex user behaviors and support personalized decision-making. However, existing methods primarily model preference changes based on explicit user-item interactions, which are sparse, noisy, and unable to reflect the real-time, mutual influences among users and items. To address these limitations, we propose RecNet, a self-evolving preference propagation framework that proactively propagates real-time preference updates across related users and items. RecNet consists of two complementary phases. In the forward phase, the centralized preference routing mechanism leverages router agents to integrate preference updates and dynamically propagate them to the most relevant agents. To ensure accurate and personalized integration of propagated preferences, we further introduce a personalized preference reception mechanism, which combines a message buffer for temporary caching and an optimizable, rule-based filter memory to guide selective preference assimilation based on past experience and interests. In the backward phase, the feedback-driven propagation optimization mechanism simulates a multi-agent reinforcement learning framework, using LLMs for credit assignment, gradient analysis, and module-level optimization, enabling continuous self-evolution of propagation strategies. Extensive experiments on various scenarios demonstrate the effectiveness of RecNet in modeling preference propagation for recommender systems.
