Unpaired Modality-Agnostic Generative Recommendation

Generative Recommendation (GR) formulates recommendation as autoregressive generation over discrete semantic identifiers (IDs). Although recent multimodal GR methods improve semantic ID construction with visual and textual information, they typically require item-level paired observations, restricting tokenization to the intersection of modality availability. Moreover, incorporating unpaired observations is nontrivial because small representation shifts may cross quantization boundaries and produce incompatible identifier sequences. To address this challenge, we propose \textbf{Unpair}ed Modality-Agnostic \textbf{G}enerative \textbf{R}ecommendation (UnpairGR), which learns a unified semantic-ID space from paired, image-only, and text-only observations. UnpairGR confines modality-specific processing to lightweight input projections while sharing the subsequent Transformer and residual codebooks across all observation conditions. Paired observations establish a reliability-guided cross-modal consensus, whereas unimodal observations directly refine the same representations and codes. The learned tokenizer is then fixed to provide stationary targets for a single autoregressive recommender, without feature imputation, modality-specific codebooks, or fallback mappings. Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets demonstrate that UnpairGR consistently improves recommendation performance under both fully observed and incomplete-observation settings.

Requirement--Evidence Alignment for Compositional E-Commerce Queries

Compositional e-commerce queries express multiple requirements that must hold jointly, yet existing rerankers collapse these constraints into aggregate relevance and often promote topical near misses over feasible products. In this paper, we introduce REAlign, a novel requirement-evidence-aligned reranking framework that explicitly connects typed query requirements with visible evidence. REAlign distinguishes satisfied, violated, and unsupported conditions, constructs requirement-targeted contrasts that expose failure modes, and optimizes duplicate-free partial rankings through Requirement-Aware Group-Relative Policy Optimization. Its list utility preserves relevance while incorporating requirement satisfaction, evidence support, material violations, and output validity. Experiments on two fixed-pool e-commerce benchmarks show consistent improvements over strong supervised and policy-optimization baselines under matched training budgets, with fewer violations among top-ranked candidates and larger gains at shallow ranks. Controlled ablations confirm the complementary value of requirement modeling, evidence grounding, and decomposed optimization.

Mosaic: Multimodal Jailbreak against Closed-Source VLMs via Multi-View Ensemble Optimization

Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are powerful but remain vulnerable to multimodal jailbreak attacks. Existing attacks mainly rely on either explicit visual prompt attacks or gradient-based adversarial optimization. While the former is easier to detect, the latter produces subtle perturbations that are less perceptible, but is usually optimized and evaluated under homogeneous open-source surrogate-target settings, leaving its effectiveness on commercial closed-source VLMs under heterogeneous settings unclear. To examine this issue, we study different surrogate-target settings and observe a consistent gap between homogeneous and heterogeneous settings, a phenomenon we term surrogate dependency. Motivated by this finding, we propose Mosaic, a Multi-view ensemble optimization framework for multimodal jailbreak against closed-source VLMs, which alleviates surrogate dependency under heterogeneous surrogate-target settings by reducing over-reliance on any single surrogate model and visual view. Specifically, Mosaic incorporates three core components: a Text-Side Transformation module, which perturbs refusal-sensitive lexical patterns; a Multi-View Image Optimization module, which updates perturbations under diverse cropped views to avoid overfitting to a single visual view; and a Surrogate Ensemble Guidance module, which aggregates optimization signals from multiple surrogate VLMs to reduce surrogate-specific bias. Extensive experiments on safety benchmarks demonstrate that Mosaic achieves state-of-the-art Attack Success Rate and Average Toxicity against commercial closed-source VLMs.

Burger: Robust Graph Denoising-augmentation Fusion and Multi-semantic Modeling in Social Recommendation

In the era of rapid development of social media, social recommendation systems as hybrid recommendation systems have been widely applied. Existing methods capture interest similarity between users to filter out interest-irrelevant relations in social networks that inevitably decrease recommendation accuracy, however, limited research has a focus on the mutual influence of semantic information between the social network and the user-item interaction network for further improving social recommendation. To address these issues, we introduce a social \underline{r}ecommendation model with ro\underline{bu}st g\underline{r}aph denoisin\underline{g}-augmentation fusion and multi-s\underline{e}mantic Modeling(Burger). Specifically, we firstly propose to construct a social tensor in order to smooth the training process of the model. Then, a graph convolutional network and a tensor convolutional network are employed to capture user's item preference and social preference, respectively. Considering the different semantic information in the user-item interaction network and the social network, a bi-semantic coordination loss is proposed to model the mutual influence of semantic information. To alleviate the interference of interest-irrelevant relations on multi-semantic modeling, we further use Bayesian posterior probability to mine potential social relations to replace social noise. Finally, the sliding window mechanism is utilized to update the social tensor as the input for the next iteration. Extensive experiments on three real datasets show Burger has a superior performance compared with the state-of-the-art models.
