• Abstract: Cross-market recommender systems (CMRS) aim to utilize historical data from mature markets to promote multinational products in emerging markets. However, existing CMRS approaches often overlook the potential for shared preferences among users in different markets, focusing primarily on modeling specific preferences within each market. In this paper, we argue that incorporating both market-specific and market-shared insights can enhance the generalizability and robustness of CMRS. We propose a novel approach called Dual Prototype Attentive Graph Network for Cross-Market Recommendation (DGRE) to address this. DGRE leverages prototypes based on graph representation learning from both items and users to capture market-specific and market-shared insights. Specifically, DGRE incorporates market-shared prototypes by clustering users from various markets to identify behavioural similarities and create market-shared user profiles. Additionally, it constructs item-side prototypes by aggregating item features within each market, providing valuable market-specific insights. We conduct extensive experiments to validate the effectiveness of DGRE on a real-world cross-market dataset, and the results show that considering both market-specific and market-sharing aspects in modelling can improve the generalization and robustness of CMRS.

  We study two-sided agentic marketplaces where Assistant agents represent consumers and Service agents represent competing businesses.<n>This environment enables us to study key market dynamics: the utility agents achieve, behavioral biases, vulnerability to manipulation, and how search mechanisms shape market outcomes.<n>Our experiments show that frontier models can approach optimal welfare-- but only under ideal search conditions. Performance degrades sharply with scale, and all models exhibit severe first-proposal bias, creating 10-30x advantages for response speed over quality.

  We propose the CrossGR model, which utilizes Graph Isomorphism Networks (GINs) to improve cross-market recommendation systems. The CrossGR model is adaptable and accurate, making it well-suited for handling the complexities of cross-market recommendation tasks. Our findings suggest that GINs represent a promising direction for CMRs, paving the way for more sophisticated, personalized, and context-aware recommendation systems.

  Cross-market recommendation (CMR) involves recommendation in a low-resource target market using data from a richer, auxiliary source market. Prior work in CMR utilised meta-learning to improve recommendation performance in target markets. We propose market-aware (MA) models, which directly model a market via market embeddings instead of meta-learning.

  Domain generalization (DG) has been a hot topic in image recognition, with a goal to train a general model that can perform well on unseen domains. In this paper, we propose a novel domain generalization method for image recognition through cross-client style transfer (CCST) without exchanging data samples. Our method outperforms recent SOTA DG methods on two DG benchmarks (PACS, OfficeHome) and a large-scale medical image dataset (Camelyon17) in the FL setting.

Although commercial frameworks, intended for handling data markets, already exist, we provide a free and extensive end-to-end research tool for simulating possible behavior for both buyers and sellers participating in (data) markets.
