Farzi Data: Autoregressive Data Distillation

no code implementations15 Oct 2023 Noveen Sachdeva, Zexue He, Wang-Cheng Kang, Jianmo Ni, Derek Zhiyuan Cheng, Julian McAuley

We study data distillation for auto-regressive machine learning tasks, where the input and output have a strict left-to-right causal structure.

Do LLMs Understand User Preferences? Evaluating LLMs On User Rating Prediction

no code implementations10 May 2023 Wang-Cheng Kang, Jianmo Ni, Nikhil Mehta, Maheswaran Sathiamoorthy, Lichan Hong, Ed Chi, Derek Zhiyuan Cheng

In this paper, we conduct a thorough examination of both CF and LLMs within the classic task of user rating prediction, which involves predicting a user's rating for a candidate item based on their past ratings.

Empowering Long-tail Item Recommendation through Cross Decoupling Network (CDN)

no code implementations25 Oct 2022 Yin Zhang, Ruoxi Wang, Tiansheng Yao, Xinyang Yi, Lichan Hong, James Caverlee, Ed H. Chi, Derek Zhiyuan Cheng

In this work, we aim to improve tail item recommendations while maintaining the overall performance with less training and serving cost.

Learning to Embed Categorical Features without Embedding Tables for Recommendation

no code implementations21 Oct 2020 Wang-Cheng Kang, Derek Zhiyuan Cheng, Tiansheng Yao, Xinyang Yi, Ting Chen, Lichan Hong, Ed H. Chi

Embedding learning of categorical features (e. g. user/item IDs) is at the core of various recommendation models including matrix factorization and neural collaborative filtering.

Beyond Point Estimate: Inferring Ensemble Prediction Variation from Neuron Activation Strength in Recommender Systems

no code implementations17 Aug 2020 Zhe Chen, Yuyan Wang, Dong Lin, Derek Zhiyuan Cheng, Lichan Hong, Ed H. Chi, Claire Cui

Despite deep neural network (DNN)'s impressive prediction performance in various domains, it is well known now that a set of DNN models trained with the same model specification and the same data can produce very different prediction results.

Self-supervised Learning for Large-scale Item Recommendations

1 code implementation25 Jul 2020 Tiansheng Yao, Xinyang Yi, Derek Zhiyuan Cheng, Felix Yu, Ting Chen, Aditya Menon, Lichan Hong, Ed H. Chi, Steve Tjoa, Jieqi Kang, Evan Ettinger

Our online results also verify our hypothesis that our framework indeed improves model performance even more on slices that lack supervision.
