• Abstract summary: We study the watchlist functionality in e-commerce and introduce a novel watchlist recommendation task. Our goal is to prioritize which watchlist items the user should pay attention to next by predicting the next items the user will click. Our proposed recommendation model, Trans2D, is built on top of the Transformer architecture.

• Abstract: In e-commerce, the watchlist enables users to track items over time and has emerged as a primary feature, playing an important role in users' shopping journey. Watchlist items typically have multiple attributes whose values may change over time (e.g., price, quantity). Since many users accumulate dozens of items on their watchlist, and since shopping intents change over time, recommending the top watchlist items in a given context can be valuable. In this work, we study the watchlist functionality in e-commerce and introduce a novel watchlist recommendation task. Our goal is to prioritize which watchlist items the user should pay attention to next by predicting the next items the user will click. We cast this task as a specialized sequential recommendation task and discuss its characteristics. Our proposed recommendation model, Trans2D, is built on top of the Transformer architecture, where we further suggest a novel extended attention mechanism (Attention2D) that allows to learn complex item-item, attribute-attribute and item-attribute patterns from sequential-data with multiple item attributes. Using a large-scale watchlist dataset from eBay, we evaluate our proposed model, where we demonstrate its superiority compared to multiple state-of-the-art baselines, many of which are adapted for this task.

  E-commerce platforms have a vast catalog of items to cater to their customers' shopping interests. Many models have been proposed in academic literature to generate and enhance the ranking and recall set of items in these carousels. This work proposes a novel approach to customize the header generation process of these carousels.

  MMGRec aims to introduce a generative paradigm into multimodal recommendation. We first devise a hierarchical quantization method Graph CF-RQVAE to assign Rec-ID for each item from its multimodal information. We then train a Transformer-based recommender to generate the Rec-IDs of user-preferred items based on historical interaction sequences.

  ColdGPT models item-attribute correlations into an item-attribute graph by extracting fine-grained attributes from item contents. ColdGPT transfers knowledge into the item-attribute graph from various available data sources, i.e., item contents, historical purchase sequences, and review texts of the existing items. Extensive experiments show that ColdGPT consistently outperforms the existing SCS recommenders by large margins.

  In recommender settings, users' context and item attributes play a crucial role in deciding which items to recommend next. We propose a context and attribute-aware recommender model (CARCA) that can capture the dynamic nature of the user profiles in terms of contextual features and item attributes. Experiments on four real-world recommender system datasets show that the proposed model significantly outperforms all state-of-the-art models in the task of item recommendation.

  In recommender systems, users and items are associated with attributes, and users show preferences to items. As annotating user (item) attributes is a labor intensive task, the attribute values are often incomplete with many missing attribute values. We propose an Adaptive Graph Convolutional Network (AGCN) approach for joint item recommendation and attribute inference.
