New PBiLoss method improves fairness in graph-based recommender systems

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed PBiLoss, a new regularization technique to address popularity bias in graph-based recommender systems. This method aims to improve fairness by penalizing the over-recommendation of popular items, thereby promoting more personalized content. PBiLoss is designed to be model-agnostic and can be integrated into existing frameworks like LightGCN. Experiments showed a reduction in popularity bias metrics by up to 10% while maintaining recommendation accuracy. AI

    PBiLoss: Popularity-Aware Regularization to Improve Fairness in Graph-Based Recommender Systems

    arXiv:2507.19067v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recommender systems based on graph neural networks (GNNs) have been proved to perform well on user-item interactions. However, they commonly suffer from popularity bias -- the tendency to over-recommend popular items -- re…
