MP-LLAVRec: an agricultural product recommendation algorithm based on LLAVA and user modal preference by Peishan Li, Peishan Li, Peishan Li, Lutao Gao, Lutao Gao, Lutao Gao, Lilian Zhang, Lilian Zhang, Lilian Zhang, Lin Peng, Lin Peng, Lin Peng, Chunhui Bai, Chunhui Bai, Chunhui Bai, Linnan Yang, Linnan Yang, Linnan Yang

“…However, the following three problems still exist in the traditional agricultural product recommendation domain: (1) the problem of missing modalities made it difficult for consumers to intuitively and comprehensively understood the product information; (2) most of them relied on shallow information about the basic attributes of agricultural products and ignored the deeper associations among the products; (3) they ignored the deeper connections among individual users and the intrinsic associations between the user embedding and the localized user representation in different modalities, which affected the accuracy of user modeling and hindered the final recommendation effect.MethodsTo address these problems, this paper innovatively proposed an agricultural product recommendation algorithm based on LLAVA and user behavioral characteristics, MP-LLaVRec(Modal Preference - Large Language and Vision Recommendation). …”
