- Abstract summary: We present a novel conversational recommendation dataset named PEARL.
We obtain detailed persona and knowledge from real-world reviews and construct a large-scale dataset with over 57k dialogues.
Our experimental results demonstrate that utterances in PEARL include more specific user preferences, show expertise in the target domain, and provide recommendations more relevant to the dialogue context than those in prior datasets.

- Abstract: Conversational recommender system is an emerging area that has garnered an increasing interest in the community, especially with the advancements in large language models (LLMs) that enable diverse reasoning over conversational input. Despite the progress, the field has many aspects left to explore. The currently available public datasets for conversational recommendation lack specific user preferences and explanations for recommendations, hindering high-quality recommendations. To address such challenges, we present a novel conversational recommendation dataset named PEARL, synthesized with persona- and knowledge-augmented LLM simulators. We obtain detailed persona and knowledge from real-world reviews and construct a large-scale dataset with over 57k dialogues. Our experimental results demonstrate that utterances in PEARL include more specific user preferences, show expertise in the target domain, and provide recommendations more relevant to the dialogue context than those in prior datasets.

Conversational Recommendation Datasets [56.052803235932686]
We propose a novel automatic dataset synthesis approach that can generate both large-scale and high-quality recommendation dialogues.
In doing so, we exploit: (i) rich personalized user profiles from traditional recommendation datasets, (ii) rich external knowledge from knowledge graphs, and (iii) the conversation ability contained in human-to-human conversational recommendation datasets.

Narrative-driven recommendation (NDR) presents an information access problem where users solicit recommendations with verbose descriptions of their preferences and context.
NDR lacks abundant training data for models, and current platforms commonly do not support these requests.
We use large language models (LLMs) for data augmentation to train NDR models.

We propose a User-Centric Conversational Recommendation (UCCR) model, which returns to the essence of user preference learning in CRS tasks.
A multi-view preference mapper is conducted to learn the intrinsic correlations among different views in current and historical sessions.
The learned multi-aspect multi-view user preferences are then used for the recommendation and dialogue generation.

Conversational recommender systems (CRS) aim to recommend high-quality items to users through interactive conversations.
First, the conversation data itself lacks of sufficient contextual information for accurately understanding users' preference.
Second, there is a semantic gap between natural language expression and item-level user preference.
