#25: RecSys 2024 Special

In episode 28 of Recsperts, I sit down with Robin Burke, professor of information science at the University of Colorado Boulder and a leading expert with over 30 years of experience in recommender systems. Together, we explore multistakeholder recommender systems, fairness, transparency, and the role of recommender systems in the age of evolving generative AI.We begin by tracing the origins of recommender systems, traditionally built around user-centric models. However, Robin challenges this perspective, arguing that all recommender systems are inherently multistakeholder—serving not just consumers as the recipients of recommendations, but also content providers, platform operators, and other key players with partially competing interests. He explains why the common “Recommended for You” label is, at best, an oversimplification and how greater transparency is needed to show how stakeholder interests are balanced.Our conversation also delves into practical approaches for handling multiple objectives, including reranking strategies versus integrated optimization. While embedding multistakeholder concerns directly into models may be ideal, reranking offers a more flexible and efficient alternative, reducing the need for frequent retraining.Towards the end of our discussion, we explore post-userism and the impact of generative AI on recommendation systems. With AI-generated content on the rise, Robin raises a critical concern: if recommendation systems remain overly user-centric, generative content could marginalize human creators, diminishing their revenue streams. Enjoy this enriching episode of RECSPERTS - Recommender Systems Experts.Don't forget to follow the podcast and please leave a review(00:00) - Introduction (03:24) - About Robin Burke and First Recommender Systems (26:07) - From Fairness and Advertising to Multistakeholder RecSys (34:10) - Multistakeholder RecSys Terminology (40:16) - Multistakeholder vs. Multiobjective (42:43) - Reciprocal and Value-Aware RecSys (59:14) - Objective Integration vs. Reranking (01:06:31) - Social Choice for Recommendations under Fairness (01:17:40) - Post-Userist Recommender Systems (01:26:34) - Further Challenges and Closing Remarks Links from the Episode:Robin Burke on LinkedInRobin's WebsiteThat Recommender Systems LabReference to Broder's Keynote on Computational Advertising and Recommender Systems from RecSys 2008Multistakeholder Recommender Systems (from Recommender Systems Handbook), chapter by Himan Abdollahpouri & Robin BurkePOPROX: The Platform for OPen Recommendation and Online eXperimentationAltRecSys 2024 (Workshop at RecSys 2024)Papers:Burke et al.

In episode 27 of Recsperts, we meet Alessandro Piscopo, Lead Data Scientist in Personalization and Search, and Duncan Walker, Principal Data Scientist in the iPlayer Recommendations Team, both from the BBC. We discuss how the BBC personalizes recommendations across different offerings like news or video and audio content recommendations. We learn about the core values for the oldest public service media organization and the collaboration with editors in that process.The BBC once started with short video recommendations for BBC+ and nowadays has to consider recommendations across multiple domains: news, the iPlayer, BBC Sounds, BBC Bytesize, and more. With a reach of about 500M+ users who access services every week there is a huge potential. My guests discuss the challenges of aligning recommendations with public service values and the role of editors and constant exchange, alignment, and learning between the algorithmic and editorial lines of recommender systems.We also discuss the potential of cross-domain recommendations to leverage the content across different products as well as the organizational setup of teams working on recommender systems at the BBC. We learn about skews in the data due to the nature of an online service that also has a linear offering with TV and radio services.Towards the end, we also touch a bit on QUARE @ RecSys, which is the Workshop on Measuring the Quality of Explanations in Recommender Systems.Enjoy this enriching episode of RECSPERTS - Recommender Systems Experts.Don't forget to follow the podcast and please leave a review(00:00) - Introduction (03:10) - About Alessandro Piscopo and Duncan Walker (14:53) - RecSys Applications at the BBC (20:22) - Journey of Building Public Service Recommendations (28:02) - Role and Implementation of Public Service Values (36:52) - Algorithmic and Editorial Recommendation (01:01:54) - Further RecSys Challenges at the BBC (01:15:53) - Quare Workshop (01:23:27) - Closing Remarks Links from the Episode:Alessandro Piscopo on LinkedInDuncan Walker on LinkedInBBCQUARE @ RecSys 2023 (2nd Workshop on Measuring the Quality of Explanations in Recommender Systems)Papers:Clarke et al.

In episode 26 of Recsperts, I speak with Sanne Vrijenhoek, a PhD candidate at the University of Amsterdam’s Institute for Information Law and the AI, Media & Democracy Lab. Sanne’s research explores diversity in recommender systems, particularly in the news domain, and its connection to democratic values and goals.We dive into four of her papers, which focus on how diversity is conceptualized in news recommender systems. Sanne introduces us to five rank-aware divergence metrics for measuring normative diversity and explains why diversity evaluation shouldn’t be approached blindly—first, we need to clarify the underlying values. She also presents a normative framework for these metrics, linking them to different democratic theory perspectives. Beyond evaluation, we discuss how to optimize diversity in recommender systems and reflect on missed opportunities—such as the RecSys Challenge 2024, which could have gone beyond accuracy-chasing. Sanne also shares her recommendations for improving the challenge by incorporating objectives such as diversity.During our conversation, Sanne shares insights on effectively communicating recommender systems research to non-technical audiences. To wrap up, we explore ideas for fostering a more diverse RecSys research community, integrating perspectives from multiple disciplines.Enjoy this enriching episode of RECSPERTS - Recommender Systems Experts.Don't forget to follow the podcast and please leave a review(00:00) - Introduction (03:24) - About Sanne Vrijenhoek (14:49) - What Does Diversity in RecSys Mean?

In episode 24 of Recsperts, I sit down with Amey Dharwadker, Machine Learning Engineering Manager at Facebook, to dive into the complexities of large-scale video recommendations. Amey, who leads the Video Recommendations Quality Ranking team at Facebook, sheds light on the intricate challenges of delivering personalized video feeds at scale. Our conversation covers content understanding, user interaction data, real-time signals, exploration, and evaluation techniques.We kick off the episode by reflecting on the inaugural VideoRecSys workshop at RecSys 2023, setting the stage for a deeper discussion on Facebook’s approach to video recommendations. Amey walks us through the critical challenges they face, such as gathering reliable user feedback signals to avoid pitfalls like watchbait. With a vast and ever-growing corpus of billions of videos—millions of which are added each month—the cold start problem looms large. We explore how content understanding, user feedback aggregation, and exploration techniques help address this issue. Amey explains how engagement metrics like watch time, comments, and reactions are used to rank content, ensuring users receive meaningful and diverse video feeds.A key highlight of the conversation is the importance of real-time personalization in fast-paced environments, such as short-form video platforms, where user preferences change quickly. Amey also emphasizes the value of cross-domain data in enriching user profiles and improving recommendations.Towards the end, Amey shares his insights on leadership in machine learning teams, pointing out the characteristics of a great ML team.Enjoy this enriching episode of RECSPERTS - Recommender Systems Experts.Don't forget to follow the podcast and please leave a review(00:00) - Introduction (02:32) - About Amey Dharwadker (08:39) - Video Recommendation Use Cases on Facebook (16:18) - Recommendation Teams and Collaboration (25:04) - Challenges of Video Recommendations (31:07) - Video Content Understanding and Metadata (33:18) - Multi-Stage RecSys and Models (42:42) - Goals and Objectives (49:04) - User Behavior Signals (59:38) - Evaluation (01:06:33) - Cross-Domain User Representation (01:08:49) - Leadership and What Makes a Great Recommendation Team (01:13:01) - Closing Remarks Links from the Episode:Amey Dharwadker on LinkedInAmey's WebsiteRecSys Challenge 2021VideoRecSys Workshop 2023VideoRecSys + LargeRecSys 2024Papers:Mahajan et al.

In episode 23 of Recsperts, we welcome Yashar Deldjoo, Assistant Professor at the Polytechnic University of Bari, Italy. Yashar's research on recommender systems includes multimodal approaches, multimedia recommender systems as well as trustworthiness and adversarial robustness, where he has published a lot of work. We discuss the evolution of generative models for recommender systems, modeling paradigms, scenarios as well as their evaluation, risks and harms.We begin our interview with a reflection of Yashar's areas of recommender systems research so far. Starting with multimedia recsys, particularly video recommendations, Yashar covers his work around adversarial robustness and trustworthiness leading to the main topic for this episode: generative models for recommender systems. We learn about their aspects for improving beyond the (partially saturated) state of traditional recommender systems: improve effectiveness and efficiency for top-n recommendations, introduce interactivity beyond classical conversational recsys, provide personalized zero- or few-shot recommendations.We learn about the modeling paradigms and as well about the scenarios for generative models which mainly differ by input and modelling approach: ID-based, text-based, and multimodal generative models. This is how we navigate the large field of acronyms leading us from VAEs and GANs to LLMs.Towards the end of the episode, we also touch on the evaluation, opportunities, risks and harms of generative models for recommender systems. Yashar also provides us with an ample amount of references and upcoming events where people get the chance to know more about GenRecSys.Enjoy this enriching episode of RECSPERTS - Recommender Systems Experts.Don't forget to follow the podcast and please leave a review(00:00) - Introduction (03:58) - About Yashar Deldjoo (09:34) - Motivation for RecSys (13:05) - Intro to Generative Models for Recommender Systems (44:27) - Modeling Paradigms for Generative Models (51:33) - Scenario 1: Interaction-Driven Recommendation (57:59) - Scenario 2: Text-based Recommendation (01:10:39) - Scenario 3: Multimodal Recommendation (01:24:59) - Evaluation of Impact and Harm (01:38:07) - Further Research Challenges (01:45:03) - References and Research Advice (01:49:39) - Closing Remarks Links from the Episode:Yashar Deldjoo on LinkedInYashar's WebsiteKDD 2024 Tutorial: Modern Recommender Systems Leveraging Generative AI: Fundamentals, Challenges and OpportunitiesRecSys 2024 Workshop: The 1st Workshop on Risks, Opportunities, and Evaluation of Generative Models in Recommender Systems (ROEGEN@RECSYS'24)Papers:Deldjoo et al.

In episode 20 of Recsperts, we welcome Bram van den Akker, Senior Machine Learning Scientist at Booking.com. Bram's work focuses on bandit algorithms and counterfactual learning. He was one of the creators of the Practical Bandits tutorial at the World Wide Web conference. We talk about the role of bandit feedback in decision making systems and in specific for recommendations in the travel industry.In our interview, Bram elaborates on bandit feedback and how it is used in practice. We discuss off-policy- and on-policy-bandits, and we learn that counterfactual evaluation is right for selecting the best model candidates for downstream A/B-testing, but not a replacement. We hear more about the practical challenges of bandit feedback, for example the difference between model scores and propensities, the role of stochasticity or the nitty-gritty details of reward signals. Bram also shares with us the challenges of recommendations in the travel domain, where he points out the sparsity of signals or the feedback delay.At the end of the episode, we can both agree on a good example for a clickbait-heavy news service in our phones.

In episode 19 of Recsperts, we welcome Himan Abdollahpouri who is an Applied Research Scientist for Personalization & Machine Learning at Spotify. We discuss the role of popularity bias in recommender systems which was the dissertation topic of Himan. We talk about multi-objective and multi-stakeholder recommender systems as well as the challenges of music and podcast streaming personalization at Spotify. In our interview, Himan walks us through popularity bias as the main cause of unfair recommendations for multiple stakeholders. We discuss the consumer- and provider-side implications and how to evaluate popularity bias. Not the sheer existence of popularity bias is the major problem, but its propagation in various collaborative filtering algorithms. But we also learn how to counteract by debiasing the data, the model itself, or it's output. We also hear more about the relationship between multi-objective and multi-stakeholder recommender systems.At the end of the episode, Himan also shares the influence of popularity bias in music and podcast streaming at Spotify as well as how calibration helps to better cater content to users' preferences.Enjoy this enriching episode of RECSPERTS - Recommender Systems Experts.Don't forget to follow the podcast and please leave a review(00:00) - Introduction (04:43) - About Himan Abdollahpouri (15:23) - What is Popularity Bias and why is it important?
