RecSoup: Efficient Model Merging Approach for Controllable Multi-Objective Recommendation

Recommender systems often need to balance multiple conflicting objectives. Controllable Multi-Objective Recommendation (CMOR) enables dynamic adjustment of objective trade-offs at inference time without retraining, adapting to shifting user or system requirements. Existing CMOR approaches typically rely on output-level reranking or parameter-generating modules, which either limit the scope of feasible trade-offs or incur substantial training and inference cost. Model merging provides a promising alternative by reusing multiple objective-specific models via parameter combination. However, its direct application to recommender systems is challenging due to the lack of a shared linear regime...
