• Abstract: Proper citation of relevant literature is essential for contextualising and validating scientific contributions. While current citation recommendation systems leverage local and global textual information, they often overlook the nuances of the human citation behaviour. Recent methods that incorporate such patterns improve performance but incur high computational costs and introduce systematic biases into downstream rerankers. To address this, we propose Profiler, a lightweight, non-learnable module that captures human citation patterns efficiently and without bias, significantly enhancing candidate retrieval. Furthermore, we identify a critical limitation in current evaluation protocol: the systems are assessed in a transductive setting, which fails to reflect real-world scenarios. We introduce a rigorous Inductive evaluation setting that enforces strict temporal constraints, simulating the recommendation of citations for newly authored papers in the wild. Finally, we present DAVINCI, a novel reranking model that integrates profiler-derived confidence priors with semantic information via an adaptive vector-gating mechanism. Our system achieves new state-of-the-art results across multiple benchmark datasets, demonstrating superior efficiency and generalisability.

  We introduce the evidence-grounded local citation recommendation task, where the target latent space comprises evidence spans for recommending specific papers.

We contribute a novel dataset for the evidence-grounded local citation recommendation task and demonstrate the efficacy of our proposed conditional neural rank-ensembling approach for re-ranking evidence spans.

  A critical need for industrial recommender systems is the ability to evaluate recommendation policies offline, before deploying them to production. We develop a new estimator that mitigates the problems of the two most popular off-policy estimators for rankings. In particular, the new estimator, called INTERPOL, addresses the bias of a potentially misspecified position-based model.

We create a novel training dataset for proposition-level alignment, derived automatically from available summarization evaluation data. We present a supervised proposition alignment baseline model, showing improved alignment-quality over the unsupervised approach.
