AltFS: Agency-light Feature Selection with Large Language Models in Deep Recommender Systems

Feature selection is crucial in recommender systems for improving model efficiency and predictive performance. Traditional methods rely on agency models, such as decision trees or neural networks, to estimate feature importance. However, this approach is inherently limited, as the agency models may fail to learn effectively in all scenarios due to suboptimal training conditions (e.g., feature collinearity, high-dimensional sparsity, and data insufficiency). In this paper, we propose AltFS, an Agency-light Feature Selection method for deep recommender systems. AltFS integrates semantic reasoning from Large Language Models (LLMs) with task-specific learning from agency models. Initially, LLMs will generate a semantic ranking of feature importance, which is then refined by an agency model, combining world knowledge with task-specific insights. Extensive experiments on three public datasets from real-world recommender platforms demonstrate the effectiveness of AltFS. Our code is publicly available for reproducibility.
