Gaussian Mixture Flow Matching with Domain Alignment for Multi-Domain Sequential Recommendation

Le résumé fourni par la source

Users increasingly interact with content across multiple domains, resulting in sequential behaviors marked by frequent and complex transitions. While Cross-Domain Sequential Recommendation (CDSR) models two-domain interactions, Multi-Domain Sequential Recommendation (MDSR) introduces significantly more domain transitions, compounded by challenges such as domain heterogeneity and imbalance. Existing approaches often overlook the intricacies of domain transitions, tend to overfit to dense domains while underfitting sparse ones, and struggle to scale effectively as the number of domains increases. We propose GMFlowRec, an efficient generative framework for MDSR that models domain-aware transition trajectories via Gaussian Mixture Flow Matching. GMFlowRec integrates: (1) a unified dual-masked Transformer to disentangle domain-invariant and domain-specific intents, (2) a Gaussian Mixture flow field to capture diverse behavioral patterns, and (3) a domain-aligned prior to support frequent and sparse transitions. Extensive experiments on JD and Amazon datasets show GMFlowRec achieves up to 44% NDCG@5 improvement over state-of-the-art baselines while maintaining efficiency with a single unified backbone.
