Flow Matching (FM), as a highly promising generative paradigm, has recently been introduced into sequential recommendation. However, the lack of explicit inter-user supervision in existing FM-based method may lead to an averaged flow phenomenon, where the model tends to produce similar velocity dire
Generative models have emerged as a powerful paradigm in sequential recommendation due to their superior distribution modeling. However, long-tail data distributions inevitably induce popularity bias, as iterative generation trajectories gravitate toward dense clusters of popular items. Current debi
Sequential recommendation has garnered significant attention for its ability to capture dynamic preferences by mining users’ historical interaction data. Given that users’ complex and intertwined periodic preferences are difficult to disentangle in the time domain, recent research is exploring frequ
Graph unlearning, which deletes graph elements such as nodes and edges from trained graph neural networks (GNNs), is crucial for real-world applications where graph data may contain outdated, inaccurate, or privacy-sensitive information. However, existing methods often suffer from (1) incomplete or
Collaborative reasoning enhances recommendation performance by combining the strengths of symbolic learning and deep neural learning. However, current collaborative reasoning models rely on parameterized networks to simulate logical operations within the reasoning process, which (1) do not comply wi…
Streaming Recommendation (SRec) aims to capture evolving user preferences in the streaming scenarios. Recently, Graph Prompt Learning (GPL) methods have demonstrated their effectiveness and adaptability within SRec. However, existing graph prompt solutions rarely consider the evolution of multi-hop
To enhance the reliability and credibility of graph neural networks (GNNs) and improve the transparency of their decision logic, a new field of explainability of GNNs (XGNN) has emerged. However, two major limitations severely degrade the performance and hinder the generalizability of existing XGNN
Deep learning and symbolic learning are two frequently employed methods in Sequential Recommendation (SR). Recent neural-symbolic SR models demonstrate their potential to enable SR to be equipped with concurrent perception and cognition capacities. However, neural-symbolic SR remains a challenging p…
To address the long-standing data sparsity problem in recommender systems (RSs), cross-domain recommendation (CDR) has been proposed to leverage the relatively richer information from a richer domain to improve the recommendation performance in a sparser domain. Although CDR has been extensively stu…
The conventional single-target Cross-Domain Recommendation (CDR) only improves the recommendation accuracy on a target domain with the help of a source domain (with relatively richer information). In contrast, the novel dual-target CDR has been proposed to improve the recommendation accuracies on bo…
