TagLLM: fine-grained post tag generation¶
Fidelity: core mechanism. Runs the defining mechanism verifiable on public data. Private data, production models, and serving remain outside scope.

Original paper¶
Motivation and method¶
Build a user-interest handbook by post category. Multimodal chain-of-thought extracts fine-grained tags by interest dimension. Two-stage knowledge distillation transfers tagging to a smaller model for explainability and serving efficiency.

Paper results¶
Online A/B reports watch time per user +0.31%, interactions +0.96%, and cold-start PV CTR +32.37%. This is paper evidence, not a local public-data outcome.
Local reproduction¶
Local comparison: Under the same full-catalog protocol, baseline NDCG@10 is 0.05401 and TagLLM NDCG@10 is 0.05147, -4.69% relative. The local proxy does not extrapolate to online lift.
See the three-seed artifact for complete results, means, standard deviations, and 95% confidence intervals.
Reproduction boundaries¶
The local run uses a public MovieLens-1M subset and auditable proxies to validate the core computation. It does not reproduce private logs, production models, online traffic assignment, or serving. No claim is made to reproduce absolute paper metrics or online gains.
