Improving Item Discoverability in e-Commerce Search via Related Intent Generation

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.27172v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditional search systems are optimized to retrieve items that strictly match a query, often prioritizing precision over recall. In e-commerce marketplaces and particularly grocery, this paradigm is limiting, as user satisfaction and commercial outcomes depend heavily on the discoverability of substitute, complementary, and thematically related items. In this paper, we present a scalable system for discovery-augmented search that leverages intent-conditioned recall expansion. Our approach generates implicit user intents to expand candidate recall while maintaining relevance. The system addresses the cost-quality tradeoff of generative retrieval through a two-stage hybrid architecture. First, we leverage closed-weight large language models
