• Russian Scientists Help Recommendation Systems Understand Users Better

  Researchers from ITMO University, Sberbank’s Practical AI Center, AIRI Institute, and Innopolis University have found a way to distill deep semantic knowledge from large language models (LLMs) into lightweight recommendation systems. For users, this means more accurate recommendations for products, movies, and other content and a stable service performance, with recommendations being generated as quickly as with the original compact model. The findings of the study were reported at ECIR 2026.
