HiGR: Industrial-Scale Hierarchical Generative Slate Recommendation Framework in Tencent
TL;DR
Slate recommendation systems often struggle with inefficiencies in planning and decoding item lists. HiGR, a Hierarchical Generative Slate Recommendation framework, addresses these issues by using a Prefix-Contrastive Residual Quantized VAE for structured item representation and a Hierarchical Slate Decoder for efficient list generation.
✦ Why It Matters
Engineers can leverage HiGR's techniques to enhance recommendation systems for better user engagement and efficiency.
Key Takeaways
- Explore using HiGR for scalable recommendation systems.
- Implement PCRQ-VAE for better semantic item representation.
- Utilize HSD to reduce latency in item decoding.
- Adopt ORPO-based mechanisms for improved user engagement.
How It Works
HiGR employs a two-step process: first, it uses PCRQ-VAE to learn structured semantic IDs, creating a discrete space for efficient planning. Then, the HSD transitions from traditional token-level decoding to a focus on preference embeddings, allowing for faster and more coherent slate generation.
