解决生成式推荐的偏差放大问题,提升推荐多样性和体验。

Bringing Reasoning to Generative Recommendation Through the Lens of Cascaded Ranking

  • 采用级联推理框架,逐步引入细粒度历史信息
  • 通过并行推理增强计算资源分配,提升偏好理解深度
  • 在多个数据集上验证,兼顾准确率、多样性与可扩展性

生成式推荐(GR)因其高计算利用率成为资源高效推荐的有前途方法。然而,我们发现当前GR模型存在严重的偏差放大问题:随着令牌生成推进,逐令牌偏差不断累积,最终限制推荐多样性并影响用户体验。通过对比传统多阶段流水线的成功因素,揭示了GR存在的两个缺陷:对编码历史的同质依赖,以及固定的计算预算阻碍深层用户偏好理解。为缓解偏差放大,关键在于1)引入更多异构信息,2)在每个令牌生成步骤分配更多计算资源。为此,我们提出CARE——一种简单而有效的级联推理框架。为引入异构信息,设计渐进式历史编码机制,随生成过程逐步融入更精细的历史信息;为分配更多计算,提出查询锚定推理机制,通过并行推理步骤实现对历史信息的深入理解。我们在三个GR骨干模型上实例化CARE。在四个数据集上的实证结果表明,CARE在推荐准确率、多样性、效率和可扩展性方面均具优势。代码与数据集见https://github.com/Linxyhaha/CARE。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Generative Recommendation (GR) has become a promising end-to-end approach with high FLOPS utilization for resource-efficient recommendation. Despite the effectiveness, we show that current GR models suffer from a critical \textbf{bias amplification} issue, where token-level bias escalates as token generation progresses, ultimately limiting the recommendation diversity and hurting the user experience. By comparing against the key factor behind the success of traditional multi-stage pipelines, we reveal two limitations in GR that can amplify the bias: homogeneous reliance on the encoded history, and fixed computational budgets that prevent deeper user preference understanding. To combat the bias amplification issue, it is crucial for GR to 1) incorporate more heterogeneous information, and 2) allocate greater computational resources at each token generation step. To this end, we propose CARE, a simple yet effective cascaded reasoning framework for debiased GR. To incorporate heterogeneous information, we introduce a progressive history encoding mechanism, which progressively incorporates increasingly fine-grained history information as the generation process advances. To allocate more computations, we propose a query-anchored reasoning mechanism, which seeks to perform a deeper understanding of historical information through parallel reasoning steps. We instantiate CARE on three GR backbones. Empirical results on four datasets show the superiority of CARE in recommendation accuracy, diversity, efficiency, and promising scalability. The codes and datasets are available at https://github.com/Linxyhaha/CARE.
