M MKT utilizes a multi-entity pre-training module to extract transferable knowledge across different entities. In the end, the extracted common knowledge is adopted for target entity model training.

• Abstract: In recent years, the recommendation content on e-commerce platforms has become increasingly rich -- a single user feed may contain multiple entities, such as selling products, short videos, and content posts. To deal with the multi-entity recommendation problem, an intuitive solution is to adopt the shared-network-based architecture for joint training. The idea is to transfer the extracted knowledge from one type of entity (source entity) to another (target entity). However, different from the conventional same-entity cross-domain recommendation, multi-entity knowledge transfer encounters several important issues: (1) data distributions of the source entity and target entity are naturally different, making the shared-network-based joint training susceptible to the negative transfer issue, (2) more importantly, the corresponding feature schema of each entity is not exactly aligned (e.g., price is an essential feature for selling product while missing for content posts), making the existing methods no longer appropriate. Recent researchers have also experimented with the pre-training and fine-tuning paradigm. Again, they only consider the scenarios with the same entity type and feature systems, which is inappropriate in our case. To this end, we design a pre-training & fine-tuning based Multi-entity Knowledge Transfer framework called MKT. MKT utilizes a multi-entity pre-training module to extract transferable knowledge across different entities. In particular, a feature alignment module is first applied to scale and align different feature schemas. Afterward, a couple of knowledge extractors are employed to extract the common and entity-specific knowledge. In the end, the extracted common knowledge is adopted for target entity model training. Through extensive offline and online experiments, we demonstrated the superiority of MKT over multiple State-Of-The-Art methods.

  Existing federated learning paradigms usually extensively exchange distributed models at a central solver to achieve a more powerful model. This would incur severe communication burden between a server and multiple clients especially when data distributions are heterogeneous. Unlike existing paradigms, we introduce an alternative perspective to significantly decrease the communication cost in federate learning.
