UNISON: A Unified Framework for Learning from Scored Bags
We introduce UNISON, a unified framework that bridges multiple instance learning and recommendation systems by treating both as instances of learning from scored bag collections of (item, score) pairs. Unlike traditional approaches that address bag-level classification and personalized recommendation as separate problems, UNISON decomposes learning into three interconnected stages: (1) learning universal item representations, (2) modeling bag-specific preference patterns through lightweight personalized parameters, and (3) inferring bag-level characteristics from learned preferences. We justify the architectural choice of linear bag-specific scoring through a first-order analysis: when it...
