• Abstract: Many modern online services feature personalized recommendations. A central challenge when providing such recommendations is that the reason why an individual user accesses the service may change from visit to visit or even during an ongoing usage session. To be effective, a recommender system should therefore aim to take the users' probable intent of using the service at a certain point in time into account. In recent years, researchers have thus started to address this challenge by incorporating intent-awareness into recommender systems. Correspondingly, a number of technical approaches were put forward, including diversification techniques, intent prediction models or latent intent modeling approaches. In this paper, we survey and categorize existing approaches to building the next generation of Intent-Aware Recommender Systems (IARS). Based on an analysis of current evaluation practices, we outline open gaps and possible future directions in this area, which in particular include the consideration of additional interaction signals and contextual information to further improve the effectiveness of such systems.

  We aim to integrate recommender systems into a broader picture, and pave the way for more comprehensive solutions for future research. We identify two evolution paths of modern recommender systems -- via list-wise recommendation and conversational recommendation. We point out that the information effectiveness of the recommendation is increased, while the user's acquisition cost is decreased.

  A crucial aspect is embedding techniques that covert the high-dimensional discrete features, such as user and item IDs, into low-dimensional continuous vectors. Applying embedding techniques captures complex entity relationships and has spurred substantial research. This survey covers embedding methods like collaborative filtering, self-supervised learning, and graph-based techniques.

  Strategic recommendations (SR) refer to the problem where an intelligent agent observes the sequential behaviors and activities of users and decides when and how to interact with them to optimize some long-term objectives, both for the user and the business. At Adobe research, we have been implementing such systems for various use-cases, including points of interest recommendations, tutorial recommendations, next step guidance in multi-media editing software, and ad recommendation for optimizing lifetime value. There are many research challenges when building these systems, such as modeling the sequential behavior of users, deciding when to intervene and offer recommendations without annoying the user, evaluating policies offline with
