Kuaishou Technology and Tsinghua University developed a Coarse-to-fine Dynamic Uplift Modeling (CDUM) framework for real-time video recommendation, addressing the limitations of non-personalized modules by integrating both long-term user preferences and real-time interests. The deployed model on Kuaishou's platform improved long-term user retention metrics by up to 0.048% and app usage time by 0.135%.

Key insights

  • Effectively combining coarse-grained long-term user preferences with fine-grained real-time interests significantly enhances the adaptability and performance of recommendation systems.
  • Strategic treatment design, such as adjusting video duration distributions, enables the application of multi-treatment uplift modeling in complex content recommendation scenarios.
  • Specialized embeddings and multi-expert networks within the CPM module can improve generalization and better utilize treatment information in uplift modeling tasks.
