This work presents a multi-layered methodology for efficiently accelerating multimodal foundation models (MFMs). It combines hardware and software co-design of transformer blocks with an optimization pipeline that reduces computational and…
Recommendation is crucial for both user experience and company revenue in Meituan as a leading lifestyle company, and generative recommendation models (GRMs) are shown to produce quality recommendations recently. However, existing systems…
Large language models (LLMs) have recently shown promise in recommendation by providing rich semantic knowledge. While most existing approaches rely on external textual corpora to align LLMs with recommender systems, we revisit a more…
A large-scale industrial recommendation platform typically consists of multiple associated scenarios, requiring a unified click-through rate (CTR) prediction model to serve them simultaneously. Existing approaches for multi-scenario CTR…
Recommender system of the e-commerce platform usually serves multiple business scenarios. Multi-scenario Recommendation (MSR) is an important topic that improves ranking performance by leveraging information from different scenarios. Recent…
In the recommendation systems, there are multiple business domains to meet the diverse interests and needs of users, and the click-through rate(CTR) of each domain can be quite different, which leads to the demand for CTR prediction…
The development of tabular foundation models (TFMs) has accelerated in recent years, showing strong potential to outperform traditional ML methods for structured data. A key finding is that TFMs can be pretrained entirely on synthetic…
Modern industrial recommendation systems encounter a core challenge of multi-stage optimization misalignment: a significant semantic gap exists between the multi-objective optimization paradigm widely used in the ranking phase and the…
As the demand for more personalized recommendation grows and a dramatic boom in commercial scenarios arises, the study on multi-scenario recommendation (MSR) has attracted much attention, which uses the data from all scenarios to…
Recommender systems need to optimize various types of user feedback, e.g., clicks, likes, and shares. A typical recommender system handling multiple types of feedback has two components: a multi-task learning (MTL) module, predicting…
Industrial recommender systems increasingly adopt multi-scenario learning (MSL) and multi-task learning (MTL) to handle diverse user interactions and contexts, but existing approaches suffer from two critical drawbacks: (1) underutilization…
Deploying pretrained visual models in real-world environments often suffers from significant performance degradation due to the diversity of testing scenarios. Continuous adaptation of learning models on edge devices via unlabeled data…
We consider small-data, large-scale decision problems in which a firm must make many operational decisions simultaneously (e.g., across a large product portfolio) while observing only a few, potentially noisy, data points per instance.…
In modern recommender systems, especially in e-commerce, predicting multiple targets such as click-through rate (CTR) and post-view conversion rate (CTCVR) is common. Multi-task recommender systems are increasingly popular in both research…
Multi-scenario multi-task recommendation (MSMTR) systems must address recommendation demands across diverse scenarios while simultaneously optimizing multiple objectives, such as click-through rate and conversion rate. Existing MSMTR models…
