DynamicPO: Dynamic Preference Optimization for Recommendation

ArXi:2605.00327v1 Announce Type: cross In large language model (LLM)-based recommendation systems, direct preference optimization (DPO) effectively aligns recommendations with user preferences, requiring multi-negative objective functions to leverage abundant implicit-feedback negatives and sharpen preference boundaries.
