Rethinking Semantic ID Construction for Generative Recommendation: SimHash with Parallel Decoding and Semantic Alignment

Yuqing Liu, Huiyuan Chen, Yibo Wang et al. · 2026

Semantic ID-based generative recommendation represents each item as a sequence of discrete tokens, enabling structured modeling of item semantics. A critical challenge is constructing semantic IDs that are both semantically expressive and computationally efficient. While recent approaches favor complex learned quantiza …

Suppressing Pressure, Amplifying Evidence: Self-Guided Attention Steering to Mitigate Sycophancy and Stubbornness

Yinghao He, Mengyu Xu, Haixiang Sun et al. · 2026

Reliable language models should resist unsupported user pressure while effectively using objective contextual information. However, models may exhibit sycophancy by yielding to unsupported user pressure or contextual stubbornness by failing to update their answers when relevant contextual information warrants revision. …

Convergence Analysis of STORM Under Different Geometries

Wei Jiang, Yibo Wang, Wenhao Yang et al. · 2026

Stochastic recursive momentum (STORM) achieves fast convergence for nonconvex optimization via the variance reduction effect, but existing analyses rely on the strong average smoothness assumption. In this paper, we study the convergence of STORM for different objectives without average smoothness. We first revisit the …
