DCGL: Dual-Channel Graph Learning with Large Language Models for Knowledge-Aware Recommendation

Knowledge Graphs (KGs) have proven highly effective for recommendation systems by capturing latent item relationships, while recent integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) has further enhanced semantic understanding and addressed knowledge sparsity issues. Nevertheless, current KG-and-LLM-based methods still face three main limitations: 1) inadequate modeling of implicit semantic relationships beyond explicit KG links; 2) suboptimal single-channel fusion of ID and LLM embeddings, which often leads to signal interference and blurred representations; and 3) insufficient consideration of user-item interaction frequency variations in recommendation strategies. To address these challenges, we propose the Dual-Channel Graph Learning (DCGL) framework, featuring three key innovations: 1) a dual-channel architecture that structurally decouples rich semantic information from user behavioral patterns, preventing early interference; 2) a multi-level contrastive learning mechanism that enhances robustness against KG noise through intra-view contrasts and bridges semantic gaps between channels via inter-view alignment; and 3) a dynamic fusion mechanism that adaptively balances semantic generalization and behavioral specificity based on interaction frequency, resolving the cascading limitation. Extensive experiments on four real-world datasets show that DCGL consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods, yielding substantial improvements in sparse scenarios while maintaining precision for active users.

From Backward Spreading to Forward Replay: Revisiting Target Construction in LLM Parameter Editing

LLM parameter editing methods commonly rely on computing an ideal target hidden-state at a target layer (referred as anchor point) and distributing the target vector to multiple preceding layers (commonly known as backward spreading) for cooperative editing. Although widely used for a long time, its underlying basis have not been systematically investigated. In this paper, we first conduct a systematic study of its foundations, which helps clarify its capability boundaries, practical considerations, and potential failure modes. Then, we propose a simple and elegant alternative that replaces backward spreading with forward-propagation. Instead of optimizing the target at the last editing layer, we optimize the anchor point at the first editing layer, and then propagate it forward to obtain accurate and mutually compatible target hidden-states for all subsequent editing layers. This approach achieves the same computational complexity as existing methods while producing more accurate layer-wise targets. Our method is simple, without interfering with either the computation of the initial target hidden state or any other components of the subsequent editing pipeline, and thus constituting a benefit for a wide range of LLM parameter editing methods.

Time-Interval-Aware Disentangled Expert Modeling for Next-Basket Recommendation

Next-basket recommendation (NBR) is a type of recommendation that aims to predict a set of items a user will purchase based on their historical transaction basket sequences. It is governed by a dynamic interplay between two distinct user intents: habitual repurchase, which involves repeating past behaviors, and exploratory interest, which involves discovering new items. However, existing NBR methods generally suffer from two limitations: (1) they often entangle these conflicting motives within a single representation, causing habits to overshadow discovery, and (2) they rely on discrete sequential modeling that ignores continuous-time intervals and item-specific periodicities. In this paper, we propose a novel solution named Time-Interval Disentangled Experts (TIDE) to address these challenges. TIDE incorporates a Hawkes-enhanced Fourier Time Encoding to capture item-specific temporal periodicities and dynamic decay. To decouple user intentions, TIDE utilizes a dual-expert architecture that integrates a Habit Expert for recurring needs and a Pattern-Guided Exploration Expert for discovery. Combined with an item-aware gating mechanism, TIDE adaptively balances repurchase and exploration. Extensive experiments on four diverse real-world datasets demonstrate that TIDE consistently outperforms representative state-of-the-art NBR methods.
