Toward User Preference Alignment in LLM Recommendation via Explicit Context Feedback 文章

arXiv:2605.29141v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Traditional recommender systems (RecSys) primarily infer user preferences from implicit signals (such as clicks, watches, and purchases), often neglecting the rich explicit contextual feedback users provide through verbal text, like comments and reviews. This explicit context feedback captures the nuanced reasons behind user decisions regarding their preferences. In addition, it offers critical heterogeneous information for user preference alignment and more explainable recommendations. Overlooking such signals can lead to misaligned user preferences and further reinforce filter bubbles, as algorithms fail to understand the "semantic context" behind user choices. Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) present new opportunities to harness user-generated content for more accurate and diverse recommendations, yet current LLM-based recommendations still focus on using item meta-data and underutilize this resource.
