The dominant retrieve-then-rank pipeline in large-scale recommender systems suffers from mis-calibration and engineering overhead due to its architectural split and differing optimization objectives. While recent generative sequence models…

Reactive synthesis builds a system from a specification given as a temporal logic formula. Traditionally, reactive synthesis is defined for systems with Boolean input and output variables. Recently, new theories and techniques have been…
