I am biased but this is one of the coolest, high leverage jobs out there.
AI may cause a lot of volatility un the labor market, join my team and help make it more efficient so that we can keep up with all the change. Feel free to DM. #recsys #econsky

Not All RecSys Problems Are Created Equal Introduction: The Hidden Complexity of Recommender Systems Imagine scrolling through Netflix recommendations that perfectly match.... @cosmicmeta.ai #RecSys

A case to follow.
This cuts to the very core of TikTok and other platforms’ business model.
The charge is to change. Or pay (up to 6% of turnover)

Gave a keynote at the #OpenData Conferentie on WooPush, my latest brainwave on #opengov x #recsys to proactively inform citizens about government decisions that affect them. The attention economy's technology, but for informed citizenship instead of clicks.

es, as a #recsys person, I know why… they aren't editors, CBS was a reputable news source until recently, practical ways to avoid this are hard, etc.
But the end user experience is still (attempted) slander of an innocent victim of unaccountable state violence when I open a new tab in my browser.
This summary got the research design (somewhat) wrong; but the general idea is captured. Overall, it's just a wordy abstract.
Main caveats:
- No author consent / notification
- No control / opt-out
- No room for corrections
What would the effect be: Fewer article clicks or more?

Read Xia et al., “TransAct V2.” earlier today, some notes:
- long and short term user histories (long term [10k items], short term [100], impressions [100])
- sampled soft max loss function seems useful in environments with very weak negatives

Quick test: swapped chronological feed for topic-weighted feed for 24h — engagement rose but time-on-site dropped. Tradeoff? #Recsys #Research
📜ACM Transactions on Recommender Systems introduces a special issue on deep reinforcement learning for recommender systems, collecting cutting-edge research that addresses pressing challenges and showcases innovations. #recsys #deeplearning #reinforcementlearning

What happens when you say:
“I want a horror -- comedy -- movie”? 🎥
That slip-of-the-tongue can confuse recommender systems.
Our INTERSPEECH 2025 paper shows some LLMs handle it better than others.

Dynamic Weighted Loss Improves Sparse Domain Recommendations
The Dynamic Weighted Loss adapts weights by interaction density to improve sparse-category recommendations. Tested on MovieLens and Amazon Electronics, it exceeded SIGMA. Read more: getnews.me/dynamic-weighted-loss-im... #dwloss #recsys
#SIGIR2025 had 1071 full submissions across all tracks. Considering that a large number of those are on search and IR, this track may very well be the largest outlet for #recsys research. (although, given recent numbers at @neuripsconf.bsky.social and @aaai.org, this may be very well be contested).
We (@md.ekstrandom.net and @ssahebi.bsky.social) received 706 abstracts in the User Modeling, Personalization, and Recommendation track at #TheWebConference2026. #usermodeling #personalization #recsys
"Leveraging Geometric Insights in Hyperbolic Triplet Loss for Improved Recommendations" poster
Let's start sharing a few posters/papers I found interesting at #RecSys this year.
1. Leveraging Geometric Insights in Hyperbolic Triplet Loss for Improved Recommendations
Very interesting. Some further work needed to convince me 100%, like a Figure 2 but for the original Euclidian Triplet Loss.
Very happy to see a full room at our #RecSys2025 tutorial "Hands on #QuantumComputing for Recommender Systems" presented by me and Paolo Cremonesi. We covered gate model QC and #quantumannealing with examples on community detection and feature selection.

And @drchole.bsky.social's presentation of our (with md.ekstrandom.net) call for a revised research agenda for #recsys
#beyond2025 at @recsys.bsky.social is wrapping up. We've had a great program on the interdisciplinary roots of #RecSys.
#RecSys #RecSys2025 Very excited to welcome as many of you as can come to my city next year for #RecSys2026!

Dynamic Temporal‑Aware LLM Simulator Boosts Recommender Feedback
DyTA4Rec adds a dynamic updater that continuously refines user profiles with new interaction data, and researchers report a marked improvement in alignment with real user logs. Read more: getnews.me/dynamic-temporal-aware-l... #dytarec #recsys
First post on Bluesky.
Any ML engineers working on recsys get tired of repeatedly building and (re)training N models for N different projects? What about a unified model for all N projects? Let me know your thoughts. #recsys #ml
The #MuRS2025 workshop on music recommenders is in full swing. We have a great program w/9 paper presentations+a keynote by Anna Huang.
Engaging participants in a packed room!
