Abstract

In traditional graph retrieval tools, graph matching is commonly used to retrieve desired graphs from extensive graph datasets according to their structural similarities. However, in real applications, graph nodes have numerous attributes which also contain valuable information for evaluating similarities between graphs. Thus, to achieve superior graph matching results, it is crucial for graph retrieval tools to make full use of the attribute information in addition to structural information. We propose a novel framework for interactive visual graph matching. In the proposed framework, an attribute-structure synchronization method is developed for representing structural and attribute features in a unified embedding space based on Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA). To support fast and interactive matching, \revise{our method} provides users with intuitive visual query interfaces for traversing, filtering and searching for the target graph in the embedding space conveniently. With the designed interfaces, the users can also specify a new target graph with desired structural and semantic features. Besides, evaluation views are designed for easy validation and interpretation of the matching results. Case studies and quantitative comparisons on real-world datasets have demonstrated the superiorities of our proposed framework in graph matching and large graph exploration.

WebArxiv: A Reproducible Benchmark for Evaluating Multimodal Web Agents on arXiv Tasks

Foundation models now enable autonomous agents to interact with real-world websites, but existing benchmarks emphasize general-purpose browsing, underrepresent research-oriented environments and scholarly discovery workflows, and often depend on live sites whose changing content and structure undermine reproducibility. arXiv provides a realistic, reproducible, hierarchically structured, information-centric testbed without privacy-sensitive interactions. We introduce WebArxiv, a static-snapshot benchmark comprising 510 time-invariant tasks, each with a unique deterministic ground truth. Its diverse, realistic scholarly tasks go beyond simple information lookup and rule following to emphasize multi-constraint paper retrieval, fine-grained content extraction, and cross-paper comparison. Evaluations of a range of foundation-model-based web agents show that WebArxiv remains challenging. Behavioral analysis reveals that agents over-rely on fixed interaction histories, causing incomplete or repetitive reasoning. We therefore equip agents with a lightweight dynamic-memory mechanism for adaptive retrieval and reasoning over relevant context. The benchmark and code are available at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/74E4423BVNW/README.md.

RQ-Reg: A Residual-Quantization-Based Framework for Continuous Value Prediction in Recommender Systems

Predicting continuous values such as watch-time and gross merchandise value (GMV) is a core problem in industrial recommendation systems. Its inherent difficulty stems from the highly complex and long-tailed distributions of the target signals, which are hard to model accurately. Existing regression methods typically rely on fixed parametric assumptions on the target distribution: overly simple assumptions underfit real-world data, whereas more intricate ones tend to sacrifice scalability and generalization. To address these limitations, we propose a sequence modeling framework based on residual quantization (RQ), in which the target continuous value is decomposed into a sequence of quantization codes that represent progressively finer approximations. The model autoregressively predicts these codes from coarse to fine granularity, with each step refining the residual error left by the previous one. To further improve the quality of the learned representations, we introduce an ordinal-aware representation learning objective that aligns the RQ code embedding space with the ordinal structure of target values, thereby yielding continuous representations of quantization codes and more accurate predictions. We conduct comprehensive experiments on public benchmarks for watch-time and lifetime value (LTV) prediction, together with a large-scale online A/B test for GMV prediction on an industrial short-video recommendation platform. Across all settings, the proposed method shows competitive performance among existing state-of-the-art approaches and generalizes well across diverse continuous value prediction scenarios.

Cross-Country Code-Mixing for Generative Recommendation

Cross-country recommendation on modern e-commerce platforms is typically deployed with disjoint user and item ID spaces across markets, removing the shared anchors that conventional cross-domain methods rely on. Generative recommendation (GR) mitigates this by mapping items into a shared token space and training a unified model, but existing approaches keep behavior sequences strictly country-specific, so knowledge transfer occurs only at the parameter level and remains absent at the data level. Inspired by code-switching corpora in multilingual natural language processing, we propose CMRec, a cross-country GR framework that injects cross-country supervision at the data level via dual-constrained, context-aware code-mixing. CMRec first learns a shared semantic codebook from multi-modal content and behavioral co-occurrence across countries. It then uses this codebook to synthesize mixed-country sequences via token-level substitutions that satisfy both static (content) and dynamic (e.g., price, audience, popularity) constraints. Finally, it introduces a context-aware loss that reweights mixed samples according to their plausibility in the current sequence. Experiments on two real-world multi-country datasets and an online A/B test show that CMRec substantially improves recommendation quality in data-sparse countries while preserving performance in data-rich countries, achieving +1.77% advertising revenue and +2.64% orders on a large-scale e-commerce platform.
