Enhancing Dual-Target Cross-Domain Recommendation via Similar User Bridging

Le résumé fourni par la source

Dual-target cross-domain recommendation aims to mitigate data sparsity and enables mutual enhancement via bidirectional knowledge transfer. Most existing methods rely on overlapping users to build cross-domain connections. However, in many real-world scenarios, overlapping data is extremely limited-or even entirely absent-significantly diminishing the effectiveness of these methods. To address this challenge, we propose SUBCDR, a novel framework that leverages large language models (LLMs) to bridge similar users across domains, thereby enhancing dual-target cross-domain recommendation. Specifically, we introduce a Multi-Interests-Aware Prompt Learning mechanism that enables LLMs to generate comprehensive user profiles, disentangling domain-invariant interest points while capturing fine-grained preferences. Then, we construct intra-domain bipartite graphs from user-item interactions and an inter-domain heterogeneous graph that links similar users across domains. Subsequently, to facilitate effective knowledge transfer, we employ Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) for intra-domain relationship modeling and design an Inter-domain Hierarchical Attention Network (InterHAN) to facilitate inter-domain knowledge transfer through similar users, learning both shared and specific user representations. Extensive experiments on seven public datasets demonstrate that SUBCDR outperforms state-of-the-art cross-domain recommendation algorithms and single-domain recommendation methods.
