用快慢双系统提升推荐模型在复杂用户上的表现

Sequential recommendation models are foundational to modern personalized services, yet their effectiveness varies substantially across heterogeneous user environments. In particular, static one-pass recommenders often perform well on common behavior patterns but degrade on operationally challenging user groups, such as users with longer histories or less mainstream item profiles. To address this limitation, we propose \textsc{DS-Frame}, an adaptive fast--slow inference framework for sequential recommendation. \textsc{DS-Frame} combines a Fast System for efficient routine prediction, a Slow System for iterative latent refinement, and a learned selector that routes each sample under a controllable computation budget. Experiments on five real-world datasets show that \textsc{DS-Frame} consistently improves representative sequential recommendation backbones, with larger gains on challenging groups and effective accuracy--efficiency trade-offs. This highlights the potential of adaptive inference for more efficient and robust recommendation.
