CoFiRec framework enhances generative recommendation with coarse-to-fine tokenization

Researchers have introduced CoFiRec, a new generative recommendation framework designed to better capture evolving user intent. Unlike previous models that compress all item attributes into a single embedding, CoFiRec decomposes item information into multiple semantic levels, from broad categories to detailed descriptions. This approach allows the model to generate item tokens from coarse to fine, progressively understanding user interests. Experiments show CoFiRec outperforms existing methods on several benchmarks, offering a novel perspective on generative recommendation. AI

IMPACT Introduces a novel tokenization strategy for generative recommenders, potentially improving user experience and prediction accuracy.

    CoFiRec: Coarse-to-Fine Tokenization for Generative Recommendation

    arXiv:2511.22707v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In web environments, user preferences are often refined progressively as users move from browsing broad categories to exploring specific items. However, existing generative recommenders overlook this natural refinement pro…
