Progressive Collaborative and Semantic Knowledge Fusion for Generative Recommendation

With the recent surge in interest surrounding generative paradigms, generative recommendation has increasingly attracted the attention of researchers in the recommendation community. This paradigm generally consists of two stages. In the first stage, pretrained semantic embeddings or collaborative ID embeddings are quantized to create item codes, aiming to capture and preserve rich semantic or collaborative knowledge within these codes. The second stage involves utilizing these discrete codes to perform an autoregressive sequence generation task. Existing methods often either overlook collaborative or semantic knowledge, or combine the two roughly. In this paper, we observe that naively concatenating representations from semantic and collaborative modality leads to a semantic domination issue, where the resulting representation is overly influenced by semantic information, effectively overshadowing the collaborative representation. Consequently, downstream recommendation tasks fail to fully exploit the knowledge from both modalities, resulting in suboptimal performance. To address this, we propose a progressive collaborative and semantic knowledge fusion model for generative recommendation, named PRORec, which integrates semantic and collaborative knowledge with a unified code through a two-stage framework. Specifically, in the first stage, we propose a cross-modality knowledge alignment task, which integrates semantic knowledge into collaborative embeddings, enhancing their representational capability. In the second stage, we propose an in-modality knowledge distillation task, designed to effectively capture and integrate knowledge from both semantic and collaborative modalities. Extensive experiments on three widely used benchmarks validate the effectiveness of our approach, demonstrating its superiority compared to existing methods.
