ChronicleRec framework compresses user behavior for improved recommendation systems

Researchers have developed ChronicleRec, a novel framework for pre-training and transferring user behavior models. This method compresses ultra-long historical action sequences into chronologically ordered "Chronicle Tokens," preserving recent behaviors while simplifying distant history. The framework uses a causal encoder and a multi-horizon design to learn complementary long-range interests and reconstruct recent behaviors from older history. Experiments on KuaiRand and Tencent AdLive datasets demonstrated ChronicleRec's superior performance compared to existing baselines, with a seven-day online A/B test confirming significant production gains. AI

IMPACT Enhances recommendation system efficiency by enabling effective modeling of long-term user behavior without prohibitive computational costs.

    ChronicleRec: Pre-training Temporally Anchored Tokens for Lifelong User Modeling

    Modeling ultra-long user behavior sequences is crucial for industrial recommendation and online advertising, yet directly feeding thousands of historical actions into ranking models is computationally prohibitive, while truncation discards long-range signals. Existing lifelong-in…
