不用文本和微调,用双树结构提升推荐系统负样本质量

Dual-Tree LLM-Enhanced Negative Sampling for Implicit Collaborative Filtering

  • 构建双模块:离线识别假负样本,线上多视角挖掘高质量负样本
  • 在多个数据集上显著提升推荐效果,尤其在冷启动场景下表现突出
  • 无需文本或微调,适配各类推荐模型和大模型,实用性强

负采样是隐式协同过滤推荐中的关键技术,通过对比已观测交互与采样的未观测项来实现高效训练。尽管大语言模型(LLM)在推荐系统中展现出潜力,但基于LLM的负采样研究仍不充分。现有方法高度依赖文本信息和任务特定微调,限制了实际应用。为此,本文提出无需文本且无需微调的双树增强负采样方法(DTL-NS)。该方法包含两个模块:(i) 离线假负样本识别模块,利用层次索引树将协同结构与潜在语义信息转化为结构化的物品ID编码,供LLM推理,精准识别假负样本;(ii) 多视角难负样本采样模块,结合用户-物品偏好得分与物品-物品层次相似性,从编码中挖掘高质量负样本,增强推荐模型判别能力。大量实验验证了DTL-NS的有效性。此外,其在不同隐式协同过滤模型、负采样方法及大模型间均具广泛适用性,持续提升推荐性能。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Negative sampling is a pivotal technique in implicit collaborative filtering (CF) recommendation, enabling efficient and effective training by contrasting observed interactions with sampled unobserved ones. Recently, large language models (LLMs) have shown promise in recommender systems; however, research on LLM-empowered negative sampling remains underexplored. Existing methods heavily rely on textual information and task-specific fine-tuning, limiting practical applicability. To this end, we propose a text-free and fine-tuning-free Dual-Tree LLM-enhanced Negative Sampling method (DTL-NS). It consists of two modules: (i) an offline false negative identification module that leverages hierarchical index trees to transform collaborative structural and latent semantic information into structured item-ID encodings for LLM inference, enabling accurate identification of false negatives; and (ii) a multi-view hard negative sampling module that combines user-item preference scores with item-item hierarchical similarities from these encodings to mine high-quality negatives, thus improving the discriminative ability of recommender models. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of DTL-NS. Moreover, DTL-NS shows broad applicability across different implicit CF models, negative sampling methods, and LLMs, consistently enhancing recommendation performance.
