TagLLM: A Fine-Grained Tag Generation Approach for Note Recommendation

Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown promising potential in E-commerce community recommendation. While LLMs and Multimodal LLMs (MLLMs) are widely used to encode notes into implicit embeddings, leveraging their generative capabilities to represent notes with interpretable tags remains unexplored. In the field of tag generation, traditional close-ended methods heavily rely on the design of tag pools, while existing open-ended methods applied directly to note recommendations face two limitations: (1) MLLMs lack guidance during generation, resulting in redundant tags that fail to capture user interests; (2) The generated tags are often coarse and lack fine-grained representation of notes, interfering with downstream recommendations. To address these limitations, we propose TagLLM, a fine-grained tag generation method for note recommendation. TagLLM captures user interests across note categories through a User Interest Handbook and constructs fine-grained tag data using multimodal CoT Extraction. A Tag Knowledge Distillation method is developed to equip small models with competitive generation capabilities, enhancing inference efficiency. In online A/B test, TagLLM increases average view duration per user by 0.31%, average interactions per user by 0.96%, and page view click-through rate in cold-start scenario by 32.37%, demonstrating its effectiveness.

MoocRadar: A Fine-grained and Multi-aspect Knowledge Repository for Improving Cognitive Student Modeling in MOOCs

Student modeling, the task of inferring a student's learning characteristics through their interactions with coursework, is a fundamental issue in intelligent education. Although the recent attempts from knowledge tracing and cognitive diagnosis propose several promising directions for improving the usability and effectiveness of current models, the existing public datasets are still insufficient to meet the need for these potential solutions due to their ignorance of complete exercising contexts, fine-grained concepts, and cognitive labels. In this paper, we present MoocRadar, a fine-grained, multi-aspect knowledge repository consisting of 2,513 exercise questions, 5,600 knowledge concepts, and over 12 million behavioral records. Specifically, we propose a framework to guarantee a high-quality and comprehensive annotation of fine-grained concepts and cognitive labels. The statistical and experimental results indicate that our dataset provides the basis for the future improvements of existing methods. Moreover, to support the convenient usage for researchers, we release a set of tools for data querying, model adaption, and even the extension of our repository, which are now available at https://github.com/THU-KEG/MOOC-Radar.
