AgenticRec: A Recommendation-Oriented Agentic Framework with Progressive Tool-Integrated Reasoning Optimization
Researchers have introduced AgenticRec, a new framework designed to enhance recommender agents built on large-language models. This framework addresses the common issue of misalignment between an agent's reasoning processes and recommendation feedback, which can limit its ability to understand nuanced user preferences. AgenticRec employs a two-stage training approach: Recommendation-Oriented Trajectory Activation for optimizing implicit feedback, followed by Progressive Preference Refinement for sharpening preference boundaries through bidirectional reasoning. Experiments indicate that AgenticRec effectively improves recommender agent performance. AI
