Challenge: Modern e-commerce search systems require product retrieval under multilingual scenarios.
Approach: They propose a universal multilingual retrieval system that captures interactions between search queries and items in e-commerce search.
Outcome: The proposed system outperforms state-of-the-art retrieval models on five countries and has been deployed in production for multiple countries.

Approach: They propose a multi-modal product attribute generation system that extracts product attributes from the product pages of eCommerce stores by using both text and images.
Outcome: The proposed model improves the recall@90P accuracy by 10.16% and 6.9 from the state-of-the-art models.
MSG-LLM: A Multi-scale Interactive Framework for Graph-enhanced Large Language Models (2025.coling-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing graph-enhanced large language models (LLMs) focus on matching subgraphs between subgraph and candidate subgraph at the same scale, neglecting that subgraph with different scales may also share similar semantics or structures.
Approach: They propose to use graph kernel search to discover subgraphs from the entire graph to bridge the graph and LLMs, helping with graph retrieval and LRM generation.
Outcome: The proposed method achieves state-of-the-art on two graph-based tasks and the results are published in the journal Nature.

Graph-Augmented Open-Domain Multi-Document Summarization (2025.coling-industry)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing methods for summarizing documents neglect the relationships between documents . existing methods treat retrieval and summarization as separate tasks .
Approach: They propose a framework that captures global document relationships through graph-based clustering . this cluster-level thematic information is then used to guide large language models .
Outcome: The proposed framework significantly improves retrieval accuracy and produces better summaries than existing methods.
