RouteRec: Behavior-Guided Sparse Routing for Sequential Recommendation

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.39007v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sessionized interaction histories contain behavioral patterns that can improve sequential recommendation. However, existing models process all sessions through the same parameterized blocks, regardless of their behavioral differences. Mixture of Experts (MoE) enables conditional computation, but it leaves open what should guide expert allocation. We propose RouteRec, a sequential recommender that uses observed session behavior as the routing criterion. RouteRec summarizes four types of behavioral evidence from sessionized histories: interaction tempo, item-group focus, repetition and carryover, and popularity tendency. It uses these cues to route computation at macro, mid, and micro scopes. Cue-derived scores first select expert groups; wit
