Uniboost: Global Coordination with Value Alignment for Fair and Efficient Traffic Allocation
arXiv:2605.26424v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With the rapid evolution of internet services, recommendation systems have become indispensable. In particular, the blending (re-ranking) stage plays a pivotal role in allocating traffic across diverse business objectives. However, existing approaches often suffer from coupled allocation plans, score inflation, and a lack of interpretability. To address these challenges, we propose Uniboost, a unified traffic allocation framework. Uniboost introduces a posterior value alignment mechanism that calibrates abstract model scores to anchor metrics w
The rapid evolution of internet services and the increasing complexity of recommendation systems necessitate more sophisticated and interpretable traffic allocation mechanisms.
Improving the efficiency, fairness, and interpretability of traffic allocation in AI-driven recommendation systems has direct implications for business objectives and user experience across major platforms.
Current fragmented and often opaque blending stages in recommendation systems could be replaced by a more unified, interpretable, and value-aligned approach, leading to better resource distribution and reduced bias.
