This February 2024 paper provides a comprehensive survey of the emerging field of Foundation Model-based Recommender Systems (FM4RecSys).
While I am not a fan of this acronym they have created, it is an important and growing field.
The authors review the research background, provide a taxonomy of existing FM4RecSys works, and discuss open problems and opportunities in this area.
The taxonomy is divided into four parts: data characteristics, representation learning, model type, and downstream tasks.
Key developments in each area are reviewed, with a focus on representative models and their characteristics.
The authors also classify FM4RecSys frameworks by model type, including language foundation models, personalised agents, and multi-modal foundation models.
They then discuss applications of FM4RecSys in tasks such as top-k recommendation, context-aware recommendation, interactive recommendation, cross-domain recommendation, and interpretability and fairness.
Motivation for FM4RecSys
Enhanced generalisation capabilities: FMs can learn from large-scale data and generalise better to new, unseen data, improving recommendations for new users or items with limited information.
Elevated recommendation experience: FMs enable more dynamic and unstructured conversational interactions, offering enhanced interactivity and flexibility in user engagements.
Improved explanation and reasoning capabilities: FMs can generate more coherent and logically sound explanations by leveraging a comprehensive grasp of commonsense and user-specific context.
Distinguishing features from recent LLM-based RecSys surveys
The authors provide a unique viewpoint for examining FM4RecSys, systematically outlining the framework from data characteristics to downstream tasks.
The survey categorises FM4RecSys based on both the types of models used and the recommendation tasks themselves.
The survey covers a wider array of foundation models, not just large language models (LLMs).
Data characteristics: User/Item ID, user profile, item side information, and external knowledge bases.
Representation learning: ID-based representation, multi-modal representation, and hybrid representation.
Model type: Language FM, personalised agent FM, and multi-modal FM.
Downstream tasks: Top-K recommendation, interpretability in recommendation, context-aware recommendation, fairness in recommendation, and interactive recommendation.
Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown potential in enhancing recommendation systems (RSs) by leveraging their extensive knowledge, reasoning capabilities, and generative power.
Here are some key ways LLMs can be used to create better recommendation systems, along with implementation details:
LLMs can be fine-tuned on user-specific data, such as user profiles, item interactions, and reviews, to generate personalised recommendations.
Models like InstructRec, TallRec, and BIGRec demonstrate the effectiveness of fine-tuning LLMs for recommendation tasks.
Implementation: Collect user data, preprocess it into a suitable format (e.g., user-item interaction sequences), and fine-tune the LLM using techniques like instruction tuning or parameter-efficient methods such as LoRA.
LLMs can leverage their pre-trained knowledge to provide accurate recommendations even for new users or items with limited data.
By using item titles, descriptions, or other side information, LLMs can infer user preferences and generate relevant recommendations.
Implementation: Represent new users or items using available side information (e.g., item titles) and feed this into the fine-tuned LLM to generate recommendations without relying on extensive interaction data.
LLMs can generate natural language explanations for recommended items, improving transparency and user trust.
Prompting techniques, such as asking the LLM to explain why an item is recommended to a specific user, can be used to generate coherent and informative explanations.
Implementation: Design prompts that include user and item information, and use the LLM to generate explanations. Optionally, incorporate item features or continuous prompt vectors to guide the explanation process.
LLMs can integrate various contextual information, such as user preferences, item attributes, and external knowledge, to provide more relevant recommendations.
Techniques like knowledge prompt tuning and hybrid item representation can be used to incorporate structured knowledge and bridge the semantic gap between traditional RSs and LLMs.
Implementation: Construct prompts that include contextual information (e.g., user preferences, item attributes) and use the LLM to generate context-aware recommendations. Optionally, integrate external knowledge bases or adapt the LLM's input space to facilitate knowledge transfer.
LLMs can engage in multi-turn conversations with users, refining preferences and providing personalized recommendations based on the conversation history.
Techniques like role-playing prompts and augmentations such as Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and Chain-of-Thought (CoT) can enhance the LLM's conversational abilities.
Implementation: Design conversational prompts and fine-tune the LLM on conversation datasets. Use the fine-tuned LLM to engage in multi-turn conversations with users, updating recommendations based on the evolving user preferences.
LLMs can be guided to generate recommendations that are fair and unbiased towards different user and item groups.
Techniques like Counterfactually-Fair-Prompting (CFP) and conditional ranking can be used to promote fairness in LLM-based RSs.
Implementation: Craft prompts that include fairness constraints or sensitive attributes, and train the LLM to generate recommendations that satisfy these constraints. Evaluate the fairness of the generated recommendations using appropriate metrics.
LLMs can leverage their pre-trained knowledge across various domains to provide recommendations in data-scarce target domains.
Techniques like domain-specific adapters, behavior mixing, and knowledge adaptation can be used to facilitate cross-domain knowledge transfer.
Implementation: Fine-tune the LLM on data from multiple domains, using techniques like adapter-based learning or prompting strategies that capture domain-specific characteristics. Use the fine-tuned LLM to generate recommendations in the target domain.
To implement these ideas effectively, it is important to have access to high-quality user and item data, design appropriate prompts and fine-tuning strategies, and carefully evaluate the generated recommendations using relevant metrics and user feedback.
Collaboration between domain experts, data scientists, and ML engineers is essential to successfully integrate LLMs into recommendation systems and create a more personalised, explainable, and fair user experience.
To better understand the practical applications of Foundation Model-based Recommender Systems (FM4RecSys), it is essential to examine specific examples of models and their characteristics.
This section will explore various types of LLM-based recommendation models.
By reviewing their workings, architecture, and best applications of these models, we can gain insights into how FM4RecSys can be effectively implemented to enhance the performance and user experience of recommendation systems.
These models are pre-trained on massive recommendation datasets using transformer-based architectures. They employ language modeling tasks such as masked language modeling and permutation language modeling.
They require a large amount of domain data and have high training costs. They are best suited for scenarios where extensive domain-specific data is available.
These models are fine-tune pre-trained LLMs using techniques like instruction tuning and parameter-efficient methods such as LoRA.
These models can understand and follow different instructions for recommendations and are effective for cold-start recommendations. They are best applied in situations where specific instructions or user history is available for fine-tuning.
This approach focuses on extracting knowledge from LLMs using prompting strategies without fine-tuning the model parameters.
These models design appropriate prompts to stimulate the recommendation abilities of LLMs. They are suitable for scenarios where fine-tuning is not feasible or when quick adaptation to new recommendation tasks is required.
These models treat users as FM-based autonomous agents within a virtual simulator.
These agents can simulate complex user behaviours and interactions within the recommendation system.
They are best applied in scenarios where gathering real user behaviour data is expensive or ethically complex, and when simulating realistic user interactions is crucial for training and evaluation.
These models leverage the reasoning, reflection, and tool usage capabilities of FMs for recommendation.
They treat FMs as the brain and recommendation models as tools that supply domain-specific knowledge. These models are suitable for scenarios that require advanced reasoning and tool integration for personalised recommendations.
While the examples of Foundation Model-based Recommender models demonstrate the potential for improved recommendation systems, it is important to acknowledge and address the open problems and opportunities in this field.
By identifying and tackling these challenges, researchers and practitioners can further advance the development and deployment of FM4RecSys, ensuring that these systems continue to evolve and meet the growing demands of businesses and users alike.
In the following section, we will explore some of the key open problems and opportunities in FM4RecSys.
Issue: FMs have fixed context window limitations, which can impact their effectiveness in tasks requiring extensive context, such as context-aware recommendations.
Resolution: Adapt techniques from NLP, including segmenting and summarising inputs to fit within the context window, and employ strategies like attention mechanisms and memory augmentation to focus on relevant input segments. The RoPE technique with rotary position embedding shows promise in managing long inputs.
Issue: The complexity and size of FMs introduce new hurdles in explaining FM4RecSys, making it challenging to enhance explainability and trustworthiness.
Resolution: Align FMs with explicit knowledge bases like knowledge graphs to make the decision-making process traceable. Techniques like Chain/Tree of Thoughts can further enhance the explanations. Generate natural language explanations for recommendations to improve transparency.
Issue: Time series modeling in recommendation systems has not fully benefited from large-scale pretraining due to its unique challenges, such as variable scales, sampling rates, and data gaps.
Resolution: Leverage approaches like LLMTIME2, which encodes time series as numerical strings and treats forecasting as a next-token prediction task. Transform token distributions into continuous densities to facilitate the application of LLMs to time series forecasting without specialised knowledge or high computational costs.
Issue: Integrating multi-modal understanding and interaction in recommendation systems to achieve more intelligent and personalised recommendations.
Resolution: Develop agent AI systems that can perceive and act in various domains, process visual and contextual data, understand user actions and behaviours, and produce meaningful responses. Use these agents as simulators for both RSs and users to collect data and train in an offline environment, reducing real-world A/B testing costs.
Issue: FMs may have outdated knowledge, generate incorrect information, or lack domain expertise, which can negatively impact the quality of recommendations.
Resolution: Integrate RAG techniques into FM4RecSys to enhance the generative capability by incorporating external data retrieval into the generative process. Use RAG to selectively extract relevant portions of a user's interaction history and associated external knowledge, ensuring up-to-date and reliable recommendations.
Issue: The development of FM-based recommendation systems involves costs related to training, inference, and API usage, which can escalate with more complex or extensive usage.
Resolution: Employ targeted solutions such as data selection for pre-training and fine-tuning, parameter-efficient fine-tuning methods (e.g., LoRA), embedding caching, lightweight FMs (e.g., distillation, pruning, quantization), prompt selection, and adaptive RAG to reduce training costs, inference latency, and API costs.
Issue: The current benchmarks for FM4RecSys are limited in terms of datasets, recommendation tasks, and evaluation metrics, hindering comprehensive evaluation and comparison of different models.
Resolution: Create a holistic and diversified benchmark that includes a variety of datasets, diverse recommendation tasks, and adaptable metrics for different models. Devise new benchmarks and evaluation metrics specifically for multi-modal and personalized agent FMs in recommendation scenarios.
Issue: FMs in RSs face challenges related to safety (e.g., red teaming attacks, undesirable content generation) and privacy (e.g., potential access to sensitive user data through prompt injection).
Resolution: Align FMs with human values by gathering relevant negative data and employing supervised fine-tuning techniques like online and offline human preference training. Incorporate approaches such as federated learning and machine unlearning into FM4RecSys to enhance user privacy protection.
By addressing these key issues and implementing the proposed resolutions, researchers and practitioners can further advance the field of FM4RecSys, improving the effectiveness, explainability, trustworthiness, and efficiency of foundation model-based recommender systems.]
The field of Foundation Model-based Recommender Systems (FM4RecSys) has shown significant promise in enhancing the capabilities and performance of recommendation systems.
By leveraging the power of large language models and other foundation models, FM4RecSys can provide more personalised, explainable, and context-aware recommendations, even in scenarios with limited data.
However, the development and deployment of FM4RecSys come with their own set of challenges, such as handling long sequences, ensuring explainability and trustworthiness, and addressing privacy and safety concerns.
By focusing on these open problems and opportunities, researchers and practitioners can further advance the field of FM4RecSys and create more effective, efficient, and user-centric recommendation systems that cater to the diverse needs of businesses and consumers alike.
The most promising commercial applications of FM4RecSys likely lie in domains where personalisation, explainability, and cross-domain knowledge integration are crucial, such as e-commerce, content streaming, and digital marketing.
