Diffusion models have emerged as a powerful paradigm for generative sequential recommendation, which typically generate next items to recommend guided by user interaction histories with a multi-step denoising process. However, the…

The prevalence of e-learning systems and on-line courses has made educational material widely accessible to students of varying abilities and backgrounds. There is thus a growing need to accommodate for individual differences in e-learning…

Convex optimization over the spectrahedron, i.e., the set of all real $n\times n$ positive semidefinite matrices with unit trace, has important applications in machine learning, signal processing and statistics, mainly as a convex…

With the prosperity of business intelligence, recommender systems have evolved into a new stage that we not only care about what to recommend, but why it is recommended. Explainability of recommendations thus emerges as a focal point of…

Low-rank modeling has many important applications in computer vision and machine learning. While the matrix rank is often approximated by the convex nuclear norm, the use of nonconvex low-rank regularizers has demonstrated better empirical…

User activities can influence their subsequent interactions with a post, generating interest in the user. Typically, users interact with posts from friends by commenting and using reaction emojis, reflecting their level of interest on…

Scalability and data sparsity remain critical bottlenecks for collaborative filtering on massive interaction datasets. This work investigates the latent geometry of user preferences using the MovieLens 32M dataset, implementing a…

Although a variety of methods have been proposed for sequential recommendation, it is still far from being well solved partly due to two challenges. First, the existing methods often lack the simultaneous consideration of the global…

User-based Collaborative Filtering (CF) is one of the most popular approaches to create recommender systems. CF, however, suffers from data sparsity and the cold-start problem since users often rate only a small fraction of available items.…

Since the introduction of deep learning, a wide scope of representation properties, such as decorrelation, whitening, disentanglement, rank, isotropy, and mutual information, have been studied to improve the quality of representation.…

Federated Recommendation can mitigate the systematical privacy risks of traditional recommendation since it allows the model training and online inferring without centralized user data collection. Most existing works assume that all user…

Recommendation systems have illustrated the significant progress made in characterizing users' preferences based on their past behaviors. Despite the effectiveness of recommending accurately, there exist several factors that are essential…

Graph neural network (GNN)-based federated recommendation systems effectively capture user-item relationships while preserving data privacy. However, existing methods often face slow convergence on graph data and privacy leakage risks…

Recommender systems are becoming more and more important in our daily lives. However, traditional recommendation methods are challenged by data sparsity and efficiency, as the numbers of users, items, and interactions between the two in…

Large language models have recently shown promise for multimodal recommendation, particularly with text and image inputs. Yet real-world recommendation signals extend far beyond these modalities. To reflect this, we formalize recommendation…

There is much empirical evidence that item-item collaborative filtering works well in practice. Motivated to understand this, we provide a framework to design and analyze various recommendation algorithms. The setup amounts to online binary…

Personalization is a core capability across consumer technologies, streaming, shopping, wearables, and voice, yet it remains challenged by sparse interactions, fast content churn, and heterogeneous textual signals. We present RecMind, an…

Recommender systems play an essential role in the choices people make in domains such as entertainment, shopping, food, news, employment, and education. The machine learning models underlying these recommender systems are often enormously…

Recommender systems play a critical role in enhancing user experience by providing personalized suggestions based on user preferences. Traditional approaches often rely on explicit numerical ratings or assume access to fully ranked lists of…

Calibrated recommendation, which aims to maintain personalized proportions of categories within recommendations, is crucial in practical scenarios since it enhances user satisfaction by reflecting diverse interests. However, achieving…
