• Abstract summary: PreSizE is a novel deep learning framework which utilizes Transformers for accurate size prediction. We demonstrate that PreSizE is capable of achieving superior prediction performance compared to previous state-of-the-art baselines. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate that size predictions made by PreSizE can be effectively integrated into an existing production recommender system.

• Abstract: Recent advances in the e-commerce fashion industry have led to an exploration of novel ways to enhance buyer experience via improved personalization. Predicting a proper size for an item to recommend is an important personalization challenge, and is being studied in this work. Earlier works in this field either focused on modeling explicit buyer fitment feedback or modeling of only a single aspect of the problem (e.g., specific category, brand, etc.). More recent works proposed richer models, either content-based or sequence-based, better accounting for content-based aspects of the problem or better modeling the buyer's online journey. However, both these approaches fail in certain scenarios: either when encountering unseen items (sequence-based models) or when encountering new users (content-based models). To address the aforementioned gaps, we propose PreSizE - a novel deep learning framework which utilizes Transformers for accurate size prediction. PreSizE models the effect of both content-based attributes, such as brand and category, and the buyer's purchase history on her size preferences. Using an extensive set of experiments on a large-scale e-commerce dataset, we demonstrate that PreSizE is capable of achieving superior prediction performance compared to previous state-of-the-art baselines. By encoding item attributes, PreSizE better handles cold-start cases with unseen items, and cases where buyers have little past purchase data. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate that size predictions made by PreSizE can be effectively integrated into an existing production recommender system yielding very effective features and significantly improving recommendations.

  We propose a novel framework, Collaborative Ensemble Training Network (CETNet), to leverage multiple distinct models. Unlike naive model scaling, our approach emphasizes diversity and collaboration through collaborative learning. We validate our framework on three public datasets and a large-scale industrial dataset from Meta.

  We propose to equip vision-text models with the ability to refine their embedding with cross-modal retrieved information from a memory at inference time. Remarkably, we show that this can be done with a light-weight, single-layer, fusion transformer on top of a frozen CLIP. Our experiments validate that our retrieval-enhanced contrastive (RECO) training improves CLIP performance substantially on several challenging fine-grained tasks.

Unlike prior approaches, we adapt our modeling to a batch infrastructure via our new dense all-action loss. We show that by doing so, we significantly close the gap between batch user embeddings that are generated once a day and realtime user embeddings generated whenever a user takes an action.
