• Abstract: We present a large-scale news recommendation system implemented at Ringier Axel Springer Polska, focusing on enhancing prediction models with reinforcement learning techniques. The system, named Aureus, integrates a variety of algorithms, including multi-armed bandit methods and deep learning models based on large language models (LLMs). We detail the architecture and implementation of Aureus, emphasizing the significant improvements in online metrics achieved by combining ranking prediction models with reinforcement learning. The paper further explores the impact of different models mixing on key business performance indicators. Our approach effectively balances the need for personalized recommendations with the ability to adapt to rapidly changing news content, addressing common challenges such as the cold start problem and content freshness. The results of online evaluation demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed system in a real-world production environment.

  Large-scale pre-trained language models (LLMs) have demonstrated exceptional performance in various natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, the massive size of these models poses huge challenges for their deployment in real-world applications. We introduce a novel compression paradigm called Retrieval-based Knowledge Transfer (RetriKT) which effectively transfers the knowledge of LLMs to extremely small-scale models.
