Cold-start recommendation remains a central challenge in dynamic, open-world platforms, requiring models to recommend for newly registered users (user cold-start) and to recommend newly introduced items to existing users (item cold-start)…
Diffusion models are powerful generative models that achieve state-of-the-art performance in image synthesis. However, training them demands substantial amounts of data and computational resources. Continual learning would allow for…
