In recommender systems, recent advances highlight the critical role of alignment and uniformity (AU) in representation learning. Specifically, AU-based methods pull positive user-item pairs closer (alignment) and spread the overall representation distribution (uniformity), typically relying on obser
Graph Contrastive Learning (GCL) has recently emerged as a powerful paradigm for modeling user–item interactions and learning high-quality representations in recommender systems. While existing GCL-based methods benefit from data augmentation and sampling strategies, they often overlook the inherent
Event causality identification (ECI) is a challenging task that involves predicting causal relationships between events in text. Existing prompt-learning-based methods typically concatenate in-context examples only at the input layer, this shallow integration limits the model’s ability to capture th
