• Abstract summary: Cross-domain sequential recommendation (CDSR) aims to address the data sparsity problems that exist in traditional sequential recommendation (SR) systems. In real-world recommender systems, CDSR scenarios usually consist of a majority of long-tailed users with sparse behaviors and cold-start users who only exist in one domain.

• Abstract: Cross-domain sequential recommendation (CDSR) aims to address the data sparsity problems that exist in traditional sequential recommendation (SR) systems. The existing approaches aim to design a specific cross-domain unit that can transfer and propagate information across multiple domains by relying on overlapping users with abundant behaviors. However, in real-world recommender systems, CDSR scenarios usually consist of a majority of long-tailed users with sparse behaviors and cold-start users who only exist in one domain. This leads to a drop in the performance of existing CDSR methods in the real-world industry platform. Therefore, improving the consistency and effectiveness of models in open-world CDSR scenarios is crucial for constructing CDSR models (\textit{1st} CH). Recently, some SR approaches have utilized auxiliary behaviors to complement the information for long-tailed users. However, these multi-behavior SR methods cannot deliver promising performance in CDSR, as they overlook the semantic gap between target and auxiliary behaviors, as well as user interest deviation across domains (\textit{2nd} CH).

  Sequential recommendation (SR) aims to predict items that users may be interested in based on their historical behavior. We revisit SR from a novel information-theoretic perspective and find that sequential modeling methods fail to adequately capture randomness and unpredictability of user behavior. Inspired by fuzzy information processing theory, this paper introduces the fuzzy sets of interaction sequences to overcome the limitations and better capture the evolution of users' real interests.

  Cross-domain recommendation (CDR) extends conventional recommender systems by leveraging user-item interactions from dense domains to mitigate data sparsity and the cold start problem. Most existing CDR methods suffer from sensitivity to the ratio of overlapping users and intrinsic discrepancy between source and target domains. We propose CGSP, a unified CDR framework based on GSP, which employs a cross-domain similarity graph constructed by flexibly combining target-only similarity and source-bridged similarity.

  Cross-Domain Sequential Recommendation (CDSR) improves recommendation performance by utilizing information from multiple domains. However, CDSR may underperform compared to Single-Domain Sequential Recommendation (SDSR) in certain domains due to negative transfer. We propose a proposed CDSR model that estimates the degree of negative transfer of each domain and adaptively assigns it as a weight factor to the prediction loss.

In addition, we design an intra domain contrastive infomax (CIM) strategy to learn richer domain-exclusive features of users by performing data augmentation on user sequences.

The second method is derived based on a new joint regularized optimization problem, which employs two autoencoders to generate in a deep and non-linear manner the user and item-latent factors.
