REPREC: Representation Driven Parameter-Efficient Recommendation System

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.24845v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have been applied to sequential recommendation by formulating it as a natural language task. Previous work has improved personalization by incorporating collaborative and sequential signals through input conditioning or LLM fine-tuning. However, existing approaches often rely on one or more of the following: LLM fine-tuning, additional architectural modules, representation distillation, or item-level conditioning over long interaction histories, increasing training complexity and deployment cost. We propose REPREC, a lightweight framework that reformulates LLM-based sequential recommendation through lightweight user representation alignment. REPREC maps a fixed-size user embedding from a frozen sequential encode
