Although the supplied benchmark is small, it represents a production system with millions of users and millions of items; the training approach must scale to that setting and therefore must not construct or decompose a global user-item interaction matrix. The production shelf has a strict request-time latency budget. Candidate item embeddings are computed offline and stored in a nearest-neighbor index. At request time, the system computes one user embedding and retrieves items by maximum inner-product search. The model must therefore decompose exactly into a user vector and an independently precomputable item vector of the same dimensionality, with the final relevance score equal to their dot product. Both vectors must be produced by separate trainable user and item towers implemented as PyTorch neural networks. The user tower must derive its representation from interaction history rather than a user-ID lookup. Per-user candidate eligibility, cutoff-specific explicit preference state, and a temporal backtest are provided. Candidate eligibility is platform-owned; all modeling within that candidate boundary is in scope. ## Data All inputs are under `/task/data/`. Training data ends at timestamp `24786800`. A 30-minute gap precedes a seven-day public validation window. The hidden test is the following seven-day window after another 30-minute gap. For each event family there is a `train_*.parquet` and `val_*.parquet` file: | Family | Meaning | Columns | | --- | --- | --- | | `listens` | Playback events | `uid`, `timestamp`, `item_id`, `is_organic`, `played_ratio_pct`, `track_length_seconds` | | `likes` | Explicit positive actions | `uid`, `timestamp`, `item_id`, `is_organic` | | `dislikes` | Explicit negative actions | `uid`, `timestamp`, `item_id`, `is_organic` | | `unlikes` | Reversal of a prior like | `uid`, `timestamp`, `item_id`, `is_organic` | | `undislikes` | Reversal of a prior dislike | `uid`, `timestamp`, `item_id`, `is_organic` | `is_organic=1` means the listener sought out the track; `0` means the action came through a recommendation surface. A listen is a conventional positive at 50% completion. The discovery-quality objective below uses the stronger 80% threshold. The two public windows have different roles: 1. Build and tune a validation ranker using only `train_*` as history and `val_*` as subsequent outcomes. 2. After selecting the approach, refit it on `train_* + val_*`. At hidden-test time the validation events are observed history, not recommendable outcomes. Do not use `val_*` events as features when measuring a validation ranking. They may and should be used when refitting the final hidden-test ranker. Additional files under `/task/data/`: - `candidate_catalog.parquet`: the 30,000 retrieval-catalog tracks, ordered by training positive-listen popularity. - `target_users.parquet`: users with at least 20 positive listens in the 90 days before the training cutoff, selected without future labels. - `validation_preference_state.parquet`: active explicit state at the training cutoff, for validation ranking. - `test_preference_state.parquet`: active explicit state after validation, for the final hidden-test ranking. State is `liked` or `disliked`; a pair may have both active channels. - `validation_eligible_candidates.npz` and `test_eligible_candidates.npz`: cutoff-correct candidate sets for every target user. Each contains aligned arrays `uids`, `item_ids`, and `packed_eligible`. For user row `r`, recover the Boolean item mask with `np.unpackbits(packed_eligible[r], count=len(item_ids), bitorder="little")`. The exact available Python distribution inventory is listed in `/task/requirements.txt`. Future test interactions are hidden and used only by the separate Harbor verifier. ## Discovery objective Rank only the candidates returned for the relevant cutoff. Relevance is based on organic behavior in the immediately following window: - grade 3: the user organically likes the track; - grade 1: the user organically listens to at least 80% of the track; - grade 0: otherwise. If both positive events occur, grade 3 wins. Ranking quality is measured with graded NDCG@10. DCG uses gain `2^grade - 1` and discount `1/log2(rank + 1)`, then averages per-user NDCG over users with at least one relevant item. The public evaluator reports this objective for development, but its score is not a separate acceptance stage. Final acceptance is determined on the hidden test using the same objective. The Yambda logs contain interactions, not impression propensities. Treat the organic objective as a robust offline target, not as a causal estimate of online lift. ## Public tools `/task/evaluate_public.py` scores a validation-stage ranking against the public window. Pass the path to a ranking with the same schema as the final deliverable: ```sh python /task/evaluate_public.py solution/validation.parquet ``` Stage-independent evaluation helpers are available in `/task/ranking_evaluation.py`. The builder installs the same checked-in module in the public agent image and private verifier image so scoring mechanics cannot drift. The public copy contains no hidden labels, evaluator-owned data paths, or pass thresholds. The public evaluator uses `validation_eligible_candidates.npz`; it is not a validator for the final artifact. No model implementation, fitted representation, or example submission is supplied. Design and tune the required PyTorch neural two-tower model, then refit the selected approach as described above. ## Deliverable Write `/app/solution/submission.parquet` or `/app/solution/submission.csv`, with exactly 100 rows for every target user and columns `uid`, `item_id`, `rank`. Ranks must be the integers 1-100 with no ties or duplicate items. Every submitted item must be present in that user's `test_eligible_candidates.npz` candidate set. Leave the code that defines, trains, and applies both towers, along with a concise `/app/solution/README.md`, in `/app/solution/`. The README should state the model architecture, training objective, public validation score, and final submission command. Keep the best valid submission saved throughout the attempt so it survives the deadline. ## Constraints - Write deliverables and intermediate artifacts only under `/app/solution/`. - Treat `/task/` and the installed Python environment as read-only. - Do not invoke nested agents or attempt to access verifier files, credentials, other trials, or host paths. - Do not install packages or use network access except for the model provider connection managed by Harbor. - The environment includes CPU PyTorch 2.8.0. No accelerator is available. - You have up to 60 minutes. Improve the model as much as possible within that limit. Structural validity alone is not sufficient; the final submission is also evaluated for ranking quality. ## Step 3 · agent · 2026-09-29T05:48:14.818Z ### Recorded reasoning summary Analyzing Prompt Requirements I am currently dissecting the core request: to construct a latency-optimized, two-tower PyTorch ranker specifically for a music streaming service's "Made for You" shelf, all to be executed on CPU. ### Recorded reasoning summary Designing Two-Tower Ranker I'm focusing on building a PyTorch two-tower ranker for music recommendations. The core idea is to generate independent user and item embeddings, whose dot product will determine relevance, avoiding a full interaction matrix. I'm analyzing the data schema and initial architectural constraints, particularly how user history will feed into its tower. ### Recorded reasoning summary Defining Relevance Metrics I am currently defining the relevance grades for the ranking task. Organic likes will be grade 3, listens with 80%+ completion grade 1, and others grade 0. The objective is graded NDCG@10, incorporating gains and logarithmic discounts. ### update_topic · 2026-09-29T05:48:14.818Z { "title": "Research & Exploration", "strategic_intent": "Initial exploration of data, evaluation scripts, and environment constraints.", "summary": "Starting the project by inspecting the task environment, reading evaluation scripts, and exploring the data files to understand user counts, catalog size, and ground truth generation." } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T05:48:14.827Z Current topic: "Research & Exploration" Topic summary: Starting the project by inspecting the task environment, reading evaluation scripts, and exploring the data files to understand user counts, catalog size, and ground truth generation.

The prompt's emphasis on scaling to millions of users, despite a small benchmark, is a key consideration I'm integrating into my design. ### Recorded reasoning summary Developing Tower Architectures I'm now focusing on the specifics of the user and item towers. Crucially, the user tower must learn from interaction history, not just an ID. I'm considering how to integrate per-user candidate eligibility and explicit preference state into this dynamic. This ensures the model scales and meets latency requirements. ### Recorded reasoning summary Formulating Interaction Embeddings I'm now concentrating on how the user tower will process interaction history. Instead of a simple ID lookup, it needs to aggregate representations from past user actions to form a coherent user vector for dot product scoring with item vectors. ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining User Embeddings I'm now exploring how to represent user history effectively. I've confirmed that I can leverage the item embedding table, passing interaction sequences through pooling mechanisms like attention or GRUs to derive a rich user vector, incorporating recency and action types. ### Recorded reasoning summary Designing Negative Sampling I'm now considering how to efficiently train the two towers without a global matrix. This involves exploring in-batch negative sampling strategies and loss functions like sampled softmax or BPR, crucial for scaling to millions of users and items in a production setting. ### Recorded reasoning summary Implementing In-Batch Negatives I'm now incorporating the concept of in-batch negative sampling within the contrastive loss function for training the two towers. This approach, commonly used in large-scale recommendation systems, allows for efficient learning without constructing a full user-item matrix, directly addressing the scalability requirements. ### run_shell_command · 2026-09-29T05:50:58.188Z { "description": "Inspect candidate_catalog.parquet in detail", "command": "python3 -c '\nimport pandas as pd\ncatalog = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/candidate_catalog.parquet\")\nprint(catalog.head(10))\nprint(catalog.describe())\n'" } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T05:50:59.761Z Output: item_id positive_listens organic_positive_listens popularity_rank 0 5862961 26615 20620 1 1 6901374 25536 17347 2 2 5635052 24691 17194 3 3 3542184 24075 17699 4 4 9378983 24036 18195 5 5 5463340 22746 17398 6 6 8213481 22505 17071 7 7 906358 22238 17183 8 8 2859641 18380 13704 9 9 3033749 16682 12267 10 item_id ... popularity_rank count 3.000000e+04 ... 30000.000000 mean 4.698278e+06 ... 15000.500000 std 2.700274e+06 ... 8660.398374 min 2.060000e+02 ... 1.000000 25% 2.382368e+06 ... 7500.750000 50% 4.687992e+06 ... 15000.500000 75% 7.040711e+06 ... 22500.250000 max 9.390294e+06 ... 30000.000000 [8 rows x 4 columns] Process Group PGID: 1791 ## Step 18 · agent · 2026-09-29T05:51:06.047Z ### run_shell_command · 2026-09-29T05:51:06.047Z { "command": "python3 -c '\nimport pandas as pd\n\ncatalog = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/candidate_catalog.parquet\")\ncat_items = set(catalog.item_id)\nprint(\"Catalog unique items:\", len(cat_items))\n\nfor name in [\"train_likes\", \"train_dislikes\", \"val_likes\"]:\n df = pd.read_parquet(f\"/task/data/{name}.parquet\")\n in_cat = df.item_id.isin(cat_items).mean()\n print(f\"{name}: total {len(df)}, unique items {df.item_id.nunique()}, in catalog {in_cat:.2%}\")\n\nlistens_sample = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/train_listens.parquet\", columns=[\"item_id\"])\nprint(f\"train_listens: total {len(listens_sample)}, unique items {listens_sample.item_id.nunique()}, in catalog {listens_sample.item_id.isin(cat_items).mean():.2%}\")\n'", "description": "Check item catalog coverage across datasets" } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T05:51:11.444Z Output: Catalog unique items: 30000 train_likes: total 814831, unique items 172303, in catalog 68.09% train_dislikes: total 101075, unique items 50876, in catalog 64.63% val_likes: total 37795, unique items 22902, in catalog 55.71% train_listens: total 43484159, unique items 845395, in catalog 71.86% Process Group PGID: 1814 ## Step 19 · agent · 2026-09-29T05:51:22.618Z ### run_shell_command · 2026-09-29T05:51:22.618Z { "command": "python3 -c '\nimport pandas as pd\n\ncatalog = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/candidate_catalog.parquet\")\ncat_items = set(catalog.item_id)\n\nval_pref = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/validation_preference_state.parquet\")\nprint(\"val_pref items in catalog:\", val_pref.item_id.isin(cat_items).mean())\n\ntest_pref = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/test_preference_state.parquet\")\nprint(\"test_pref items in catalog:\", test_pref.item_id.isin(cat_items).mean())\n'", "description": "Check preference state overlap with catalog" } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T05:51:24.320Z Output: val_pref items in catalog: 1.0 test_pref items in catalog: 1.0 Process Group PGID: 1835 ## Step 20 · agent · 2026-09-29T05:51:37.139Z ### Recorded reasoning summary Confirming Data Completeness I've confirmed that all items within both `val_pref` and `test_pref` are present in the candidate catalog.

This step is crucial for ensuring data integrity before proceeding. ### Recorded reasoning summary Defining Model Architecture I am currently reviewing the core architectural mandates from the prompt. My focus is on understanding how to design the two-tower model to satisfy production latency constraints and avoid global matrix operations, ensuring independent user and item vector precomputation. ### Recorded reasoning summary Designing User Tower My thoughts are now centered on constructing the user tower. I'm prioritizing its representation derivation from interaction history, rather than simple user-ID lookups, as per instruction. **Refining Temporal Backtesting** I'm focusing on how to effectively utilize the provided per-user candidate eligibility, cutoff-specific explicit preference state, and temporal backtest. My aim is to correctly implement the two public windows for validation and refitting, ensuring `val_*` events aren't incorrectly used as features during validation ranking. **Structuring Output Format** I'm concentrating on the final deliverable format. My current task is to ensure the output file, `/app/solution/submission.parquet` or `/app/solution/submission.csv`, strictly adheres to the 100-row-per-target-user requirement, with `uid`, `item_id`, and `rank` columns populated correctly as integers 1-100 without ties. ### Recorded reasoning summary Analyzing Two-Tower Discovery I'm dissecting the intricacies of the two-tower model's role in discovery ranking. The core challenge is predicting new item engagement within a 7-day window for each user, considering their history up to a cutoff, with a constrained candidate set. ### Recorded reasoning summary Optimizing Inference Performance I've confirmed that the matrix multiplication for scoring candidates, even with a large item set, is remarkably fast on an 8-core CPU. This indicates the two-tower approach inherently meets production latency requirements, allowing me to focus on optimal tower design and training strategies. ### Recorded reasoning summary Designing Item Tower I am now focusing on the item tower's architecture. My current thinking revolves around leveraging both item embeddings and rich numerical features like listen counts and popularity rank, processed through an MLP for a more nuanced representation. The benefit of an MLP over a pure embedding is its ability to integrate these diverse features. ### Recorded reasoning summary Incorporating Item Popularity I'm realizing the item tower's output norm can intrinsically capture item popularity, which is crucial for discovery ranking. I'm also exploring how to explicitly encode item bias within the item tower's output for further fine-tuning. ### Recorded reasoning summary Deriving User Representations I'm focusing on how to derive user representations from interaction history, avoiding simple ID lookups. My thoughts are now on effectively processing sequences of item interactions, considering their features, to build a rich user vector that captures nuanced preferences for discovery. ### Recorded reasoning summary Combining User Interactions I am now considering how to mathematically combine the various user interaction components into a coherent user vector. My focus is on exploring options like average pooling of item embeddings, potentially incorporating learned attention weights, to create a rich user representation. ### Recorded reasoning summary Combining User History Components I am now exploring how to integrate the representations derived from liked items, recent strong listens, and disliked items into a unified user vector. The idea is to concatenate these aggregated representations and then process them through a user-specific MLP, potentially incorporating attention mechanisms for learned weighting, to create a comprehensive user embedding. I am also considering the possibility of sharing item embeddings between the user and item towers. ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining User Representations I'm refining how to represent users by pooling embeddings from liked items and exploring attention mechanisms to capture distinct musical tastes. This approach, especially with shared item embeddings, seems more robust than simple averaging for discovery. ### run_shell_command · 2026-09-29T05:54:58.091Z { "command": "python3 -c '\nimport torch\nimport time\n\nprint(\"PyTorch version:\", torch.__version__)\nprint(\"PyTorch threads:\", torch.get_num_threads())\n\nemb_bag = torch.nn.EmbeddingBag(30005, 64, mode=\"mean\")\nindices = torch.randint(0, 30000, (8456 * 50,))\noffsets = torch.arange(0, 8456 * 50, 50)\n\nt0 = time.time()\nfor _ in range(10):\n out = emb_bag(indices, offsets)\nt1 = time.time()\nprint(f\"Time for 10 batches of 8456 users (50 items each): {t1-t0:.4f}s ({1000*(t1-t0)/10:.2f}ms per forward pass)\")\n'", "description": "Benchmark PyTorch CPU EmbeddingBag speed" } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T05:55:01.129Z Output: PyTorch version: 2.8.0+cpu PyTorch threads: 4 Time for 10 batches of 8456 users (50 items each): 0.0270s (2.70ms per forward pass) Process Group PGID: 2150 ## Step 37 · agent · 2026-09-29T05:55:15.741Z ### Recorded reasoning summary Testing CPU Performance I've confirmed that PyTorch's `EmbeddingBag` on CPU is achieving an impressive 2.7 milliseconds per forward pass for all 8,456 users.

Strategic Intent: Design and implement the PyTorch two-tower neural network ranker architecture and training pipeline. ## Step 45 · agent · 2026-09-29T06:00:02.181Z ### Recorded reasoning summary Exploring Two-Tower Architecture I'm currently delving into the intricate details of the two-tower model's architecture, features, and training. My focus is on meticulously dissecting each requirement and constraint, ensuring a robust design that aligns with our objectives. ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining User Representation I'm now concentrating on how to construct the user vector. The key insight is that it must be derived from the interaction history, not a simple ID lookup, ensuring a richer, context-aware representation that can be precomputed independently. ### Recorded reasoning summary Validating Ranker Performance My current focus is on meticulously validating the ranker's performance. Specifically, I'm experimenting with using only `train_*` events as history while `val_*` events serve as subsequent outcomes. This allows for an unbiased evaluation before refitting the model with combined training and validation data. ### Recorded reasoning summary Precomputing Item Vectors I'm now focused on precomputing the item tower's output vectors. The key realization is that these vectors are entirely independent of user interactions, relying solely on item IDs and catalog features. This allows for efficient offline computation of $V$. ### Recorded reasoning summary Designing User Tower I am now focusing on the user tower's design, specifically extracting features from interaction history. This includes leveraging liked items, potentially with recency decay weighting, and incorporating recent strong organic listens to create a richer representation. ### Recorded reasoning summary Integrating Disliked Items I am now incorporating signals from disliked items into the user tower. This negative preference data, accessed through an EmbeddingBag, will allow the model to learn to actively steer away from undesirable regions in the embedding space. ### Recorded reasoning summary Sharing Item Embeddings I'm now considering the potential to share the item embedding table between the user and item towers. The current architecture allows for this; however, I need to verify if this sharing is truly optimal and if it introduces any unforeseen constraints or compromises to either tower's representation learning. ### Recorded reasoning summary Sharing Embedding Tables I'm now exploring the implications of sharing the item embedding table between both towers. This seems highly beneficial for memory efficiency and automatically aligns the representation spaces, although I still need to confirm if it optimizes performance. The possibility of separate embeddings is also under consideration for comparative evaluation. ### Recorded reasoning summary Analyzing Training Data Structure I am now examining the structure of our training data, specifically the available listens, likes, and dislikes. My current thought process is focused on understanding how to best leverage this data to define and generate training samples, considering the temporal aspect and the precise prediction targets for the model. ### Recorded reasoning summary Structuring Training Data I am currently analyzing the structure of our training data, focusing on how to best define and generate training samples from listens, likes, and dislikes. My thoughts are centered on leveraging the temporal aspects and determining the precise prediction targets for the model based on these interactions. ### Recorded reasoning summary Testing Training Speed I am now focused on verifying the estimated training speed. The calculations suggest incredibly fast epoch times due to precomputed user histories and efficient batch processing.

It appears organic likes represent entirely new user interactions, and importantly, are weighted significantly higher, seven times more than listens according to NDCG. ### Recorded reasoning summary Mapping Catalog Items My current focus is on establishing clear mappings for catalog items within our system. I'm determining the number of unique catalog items and will assign each a specific integer index. I'm also considering how to handle items that fall outside the main catalog, exploring options like OOV indexing or exclusion. ### Recorded reasoning summary Integrating User History I've realized that items in user history directly map to the candidate catalog, which is excellent. I'm now exploring how to represent the user by pooling embeddings from their liked and disliked items, considering weighting by recency for a more nuanced understanding. ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining User Representations I'm now exploring how to effectively pool embeddings from user likes and listens, incorporating recency weights to capture evolving preferences. I'm also considering how to handle scenarios where a user might lack likes or dislikes, perhaps by using learned defaults or zero vectors. This refined user representation will then feed into a User MLP alongside statistical features. ### Recorded reasoning summary Normalizing Embeddings I'm considering L2 normalization for my final user and item embeddings to enable cosine similarity. This approach aligns with common practices in modern two-tower retrieval systems and offers stability by bounding the score range and preventing norm issues, making it suitable for InfoNCE loss. ### Recorded reasoning summary Incorporating Popularity Dynamics I'm now thinking about how to integrate item popularity directly into the item tower's output. My current idea is to augment the content embedding with a popularity feature, scaled by a trainable parameter.

I've confirmed that mini-batch SGD or Adam on user-history/target-item pairs is compliant and scalable, avoiding global interaction matrices. I'm also investigating Item2Vec for listen sequences. **Prototyping Two-Tower Model** I'm planning to build a prototype two-tower model and evaluate its performance on public validation data, assessing training speed and validation scores.

Weekly metrics show approximately 5,300 organic likes and a substantial 44,000 strong organic listens. The speed of this discovery pipeline is also encouraging. ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining User Representation I'm now focusing on how to effectively represent user history at any given cutoff point $T$. This involves defining interaction sets like liked items, recent strong organic listens, general listens, and disliked items, and then considering how to process these lists within PyTorch. I'm exploring fixed maximum lengths for these item sets, such as truncating likes to 64 and dislikes to 16, to manage computational complexity. ### Recorded reasoning summary Implementing Recency Weighting I'm now exploring how to incorporate item recency by applying an exponential decay weight, $w_i = \exp(-\lambda \Delta t)$, where $\Delta t$ represents item age in days. This weighting could be applied during the pooling of item embeddings, potentially with $\lambda$ as a trainable parameter, to refine how recent user interactions influence representations. ### run_shell_command · 2026-09-29T06:11:49.858Z { "command": "python3 -c '\nimport torch\nimport torch.nn as nn\nimport time\n\nclass UserTower(nn.Module):\n def __init__(self, num_items=30001, emb_dim=64, out_dim=64):\n super().__init__()\n self.item_emb = nn.Embedding(num_items, emb_dim, padding_idx=0)\n self.mlp = nn.Sequential(\n nn.Linear(emb_dim * 4 + 4, 128),\n nn.LayerNorm(128),\n nn.GELU(),\n nn.Linear(128, out_dim)\n )\n \n def pool(self, item_ids, weights=None):\n emb = self.item_emb(item_ids) # (B, L, D)\n mask = (item_ids > 0).float() # (B, L)\n if weights is not None:\n mask = mask * weights\n denom = mask.sum(dim=-1, keepdim=True).clamp(min=1e-5)\n pooled = (emb * mask.unsqueeze(-1)).sum(dim=1) / denom\n return pooled\n\n def forward(self, likes, org_listens, all_listens, dislikes, user_stats, weights=None):\n h_likes = self.pool(likes, weights.get(\"likes\") if weights else None)\n h_org = self.pool(org_listens, weights.get(\"org\") if weights else None)\n h_all = self.pool(all_listens, weights.get(\"all\") if weights else None)\n h_dis = self.pool(dislikes, weights.get(\"dis\") if weights else None)\n h = torch.cat([h_likes, h_org, h_all, h_dis, user_stats], dim=-1)\n u = self.mlp(h)\n return nn.functional.normalize(u, p=2, dim=-1)\n\nmodel = UserTower()\nB = 512\nlikes = torch.randint(0, 30000, (B, 64))\norg = torch.randint(0, 30000, (B, 64))\nall_l = torch.randint(0, 30000, (B, 64))\ndis = torch.randint(0, 30000, (B, 16))\nstats = torch.randn(B, 4)\n\nt0 = time.time()\nfor _ in range(100):\n out = model(likes, org, all_l, dis, stats)\nt1 = time.time()\nprint(f\"Time for 100 batches of size 512: {t1-t0:.4f}s ({1000*(t1-t0)/100:.2f}ms per batch)\")\n'", "description": "Test UserTower architecture and forward pass speed" } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T06:11:53.399Z Output: Time for 100 batches of size 512: 0.5756s (5.76ms per batch) Process Group PGID: 2553 ## Step 52 · agent · 2026-09-29T06:11:59.929Z ### Recorded reasoning summary Analyzing ItemTower Performance I'm currently investigating the performance of the ItemTower architecture.

I've precomputed 30,000 item embeddings offline in just 21 milliseconds. Furthermore, at request time, I can generate user embeddings from their history in approximately 0.5 milliseconds, enabling rapid relevance scoring. ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining Training Objectives I'm currently exploring how to integrate user engagement grades into our contrastive training loss. Specifically, I'm considering sample weighting within the CrossEntropyLoss function, with the goal of assigning higher importance to positive interactions based on their associated grades. This should allow us to better differentiate between varying levels of relevance. ### Recorded reasoning summary Differentiating Interaction Strengths I'm exploring methods to better distinguish between different user interaction grades within our training. This includes considering margin adjustments, oversampling higher-grade items, or a combination of both, to more effectively rank highly relevant content. I'm also contemplating the implications of using only in-batch negatives versus a broader candidate catalog for training. ### Recorded reasoning summary Integrating Negative Sampling My current focus is on refining negative sampling strategies for training. I'm analyzing a mixed sampling approach, inspired by a Google paper, which combines in-batch negatives with randomly sampled catalog items. This strategy appears to offer a computationally efficient way to balance hard and broad negative representations, with matrix multiplication costs under 1 ms for a batch size of 512. ### Recorded reasoning summary Incorporating Dislikes My latest thoughts are on using disliked items as explicit hard negatives during training. The user tower can learn to adapt representations away from these items, potentially improving ranking by ensuring user representations are low for disliked items. I'm planning tests to measure NDCG@10 against a popularity baseline. ### Recorded reasoning summary Processing User History I'm currently processing user history for training. This involves extracting recent liked, strongly organic listened, and recently listened items, up to 64 each, alongside disliked items and statistical features.

My analysis is focused on how this might impact the PyTorch implementation and its downstream effects on training dynamics and loss calculation. ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining Embedding Strategy I'm confirming the elegance of using a single `item_embedding` module shared across both user and item towers, ensuring consistency within the embedding space. My attention is now on how the MLPs allow for specialized projections and how item bias might be incorporated into the Item Tower's output. ### Recorded reasoning summary Incorporating Popularity Bias I'm investigating how to naturally embed item popularity into the scoring mechanism.

My next step is to define the input history channels for the User Tower and map out its architecture. ### run_shell_command · 2026-09-29T06:16:40.102Z { "command": "python3 -c '\nimport torch\nimport torch.nn as nn\nimport torch.nn.functional as F\n\nclass TwoTower(nn.Module):\n def __init__(self, num_items=30001, emb_dim=64, out_dim=64, feat_dim=4, stats_dim=5):\n super().__init__()\n self.item_emb = nn.Embedding(num_items, emb_dim, padding_idx=0)\n nn.init.normal_(self.item_emb.weight, std=0.02)\n \n # User Tower\n self.user_mlp = nn.Sequential(\n nn.Linear(emb_dim * 4 + stats_dim, 128),\n nn.LayerNorm(128),\n nn.GELU(),\n nn.Dropout(0.1),\n nn.Linear(128, out_dim)\n )\n \n # Item Tower\n self.item_mlp = nn.Sequential(\n nn.Linear(emb_dim + feat_dim, 128),\n nn.LayerNorm(128),\n nn.GELU(),\n nn.Dropout(0.1),\n nn.Linear(128, out_dim)\n )\n self.temp = nn.Parameter(torch.tensor(0.07))\n \n def pool(self, item_ids):\n emb = self.item_emb(item_ids)\n mask = (item_ids > 0).float().unsqueeze(-1)\n return (emb * mask).sum(dim=1) / mask.sum(dim=1).clamp(min=1.0)\n \n def forward_user(self, likes, org, all_l, dis, stats):\n h1 = self.pool(likes)\n h2 = self.pool(org)\n h3 = self.pool(all_l)\n h4 = self.pool(dis)\n h = torch.cat([h1, h2, h3, h4, stats], dim=-1)\n raw = self.user_mlp(h)\n # Pref part normalized, pop weight in last dim\n pref = F.normalize(raw[:, :-1], p=2, dim=-1)\n pop = F.softplus(raw[:, -1:])\n return torch.cat([pref, pop], dim=-1)\n \n def forward_item(self, item_ids, item_feats):\n emb = self.item_emb(item_ids)\n h = torch.cat([emb, item_feats], dim=-1)\n raw = self.item_mlp(h)\n pref = F.normalize(raw[:, :-1], p=2, dim=-1)\n pop = raw[:, -1:]\n return torch.cat([pref, pop], dim=-1)\n\nmodel = TwoTower()\nB = 64\nlikes = torch.randint(0, 30000, (B, 64))\norg = torch.randint(0, 30000, (B, 64))\nall_l = torch.randint(0, 30000, (B, 64))\ndis = torch.randint(0, 30000, (B, 16))\nstats = torch.randn(B, 5)\n\nu = model.forward_user(likes, org, all_l, dis, stats)\nv = model.forward_item(torch.randint(1, 30000, (B,)), torch.randn(B, 4))\nprint(\"User vector shape:\", u.shape, \"Item vector shape:\", v.shape)\nscores = (u * v).sum(dim=-1)\nprint(\"Scores shape:\", scores.shape, \"Sample scores:\", scores[:5].detach())\n'", "description": "Test TwoTower architecture forward pass" } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T06:16:43.102Z Output: User vector shape: torch.Size([64, 64]) Item vector shape: torch.Size([64, 64]) Scores shape: torch.Size([64]) Sample scores: tensor([0.2363, 0.5441, 0.5493, 0.5881, 0.1839]) Process Group PGID: 2693 ## Step 59 · agent · 2026-09-29T06:16:57.596Z ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining Architecture Components My current focus is on disentangling the Item and User towers. I'm verifying that the architecture cleanly separates these, ensuring each produces distinct user and item representations as intended. This modularity is crucial for precise dot product calculations. ### Recorded reasoning summary Structuring User and Item Towers I'm solidifying the separation between user and item processing. Both will be distinct PyTorch `nn.Module` classes. We're exploring whether to share an item embedding table across both towers, or instantiate separate ones, a decision critical for maintaining independence while allowing for shared components. ### Recorded reasoning summary Designing Training Data Splits I'm now focusing on how to construct training batches, specifically how to build user histories and sampling strategies. I'm exploring weekly cutoffs to define user history context and target positive pairs within subsequent windows, ensuring distinct histories are maintained for each epoch. ### Recorded reasoning summary Validating Data Handling My latest thoughts confirm that our in-memory data structures are exceptionally efficient. Even with six historical cutoffs, the memory footprint for user histories and positive pairs is surprisingly small, totaling around 25 MB. This allows for zero I/O during training, with an epoch predicted to complete in under two seconds. I'm eager to test this hypothesis. ### run_shell_command · 2026-09-29T06:16:57.596Z { "description": "Check loading speed for 16-week window", "command": "python3 -c '\nimport time\nimport numpy as np\nimport pandas as pd\nimport pyarrow.parquet as pq\n\nt0 = time.time()\ncutoff = 24786800\nweek = 7 * 86400\nnum_weeks = 6\n\ncatalog = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/candidate_catalog.parquet\")\nitem2idx = {item: i + 1 for i, item in enumerate(catalog.item_id.values)}\ntargets_df = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/target_users.parquet\")\ntarget_uids = targets_df.uid.values\nuid2idx = {uid: i for i, uid in enumerate(target_uids)}\nN_users = len(target_uids)\n\nprint(f\"Catalog items: {len(item2idx)}, Target users: {N_users}\")\n\n# Load all likes and dislikes for target users\nlikes = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/train_likes.parquet\")\nlikes = likes[likes.uid.isin(uid2idx) & likes.item_id.isin(item2idx)]\nlikes[\"u_idx\"] = likes.uid.map(uid2idx).astype(np.int32)\nlikes[\"i_idx\"] = likes.item_id.map(item2idx).astype(np.int32)\n\ndislikes = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/train_dislikes.parquet\")\ndislikes = dislikes[dislikes.uid.isin(uid2idx) & dislikes.item_id.isin(item2idx)]\ndislikes[\"u_idx\"] = dislikes.uid.map(uid2idx).astype(np.int32)\ndislikes[\"i_idx\"] = dislikes.item_id.map(item2idx).astype(np.int32)\n\n# Load listens in the last 16 weeks\nt_start = cutoff - 16 * week\ntable = pq.read_table(\"/task/data/train_listens.parquet\", columns=[\"uid\", \"item_id\", \"timestamp\", \"is_organic\", \"played_ratio_pct\"], filters=[(\"timestamp\", \">=\", t_start)])\nlistens = table.to_pandas()\nlistens = listens[listens.uid.isin(uid2idx) & listens.item_id.isin(item2idx)]\nlistens[\"u_idx\"] = listens.uid.map(uid2idx).astype(np.int32)\nlistens[\"i_idx\"] = listens.item_id.map(item2idx).astype(np.int32)\n\nprint(f\"Events loaded in {time.time()-t0:.2f}s: likes={len(likes)}, dislikes={len(dislikes)}, listens={len(listens)}\")\n'" } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T06:17:04.766Z Output: Catalog items: 30000, Target users: 8456 Events loaded in 5.58s: likes=472889, dislikes=54901, listens=14602404 Process Group PGID: 2712 ## Step 60 · agent · 2026-09-29T06:17:16.889Z ### Recorded reasoning summary Analyzing Cutoff Logic I'm currently dissecting the logic for extracting positive pairs and user history based on defined cutoffs.

I'm exploring efficient ways to filter these pre-interacted items from user interaction logs. ### Recorded reasoning summary Simplifying Discovery Criteria I've realized the discovery eligibility for cutoff $T_w$ simplifies drastically. An interaction is a discovery if and only if its `first_seen_ts` is within the target window $[T_w, T_w + \text{week}]$. This directly means the item wasn't seen before $T_w$ and was first interacted with during the window. ### run_shell_command · 2026-09-29T06:17:16.889Z { "description": "Test first_seen computation on all events", "command": "python3 -c '\nimport time\nimport numpy as np\nimport pandas as pd\nimport pyarrow.parquet as pq\n\nt0 = time.time()\ncutoff = 24786800\nweek = 7 * 86400\nnum_weeks = 6\n\ncatalog = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/candidate_catalog.parquet\")\nitem2idx = {item: i + 1 for i, item in enumerate(catalog.item_id.values)}\ntargets_df = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/target_users.parquet\")\ntarget_uids = targets_df.uid.values\nuid2idx = {uid: i for i, uid in enumerate(target_uids)}\n\n# Load all interactions in train to get first_seen_ts\nlikes = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/train_likes.parquet\", columns=[\"uid\", \"item_id\", \"timestamp\"])\nlikes = likes[likes.uid.isin(uid2idx) & likes.item_id.isin(item2idx)]\n\ndislikes = pd.read_parquet(\"/task/data/train_dislikes.parquet\", columns=[\"uid\", \"item_id\", \"timestamp\"])\ndislikes = dislikes[dislikes.uid.isin(uid2idx) & dislikes.item_id.isin(item2idx)]\n\ntable = pq.read_table(\"/task/data/train_listens.parquet\", columns=[\"uid\", \"item_id\", \"timestamp\"], filters=[(\"timestamp\", \">=\", cutoff - 16 * week)])\nlistens = table.to_pandas()\nlistens = listens[listens.uid.isin(uid2idx) & listens.item_id.isin(item2idx)]\n\nall_events = pd.concat([likes, dislikes, listens], ignore_index=True)\nall_events[\"u_idx\"] = all_events.uid.map(uid2idx).astype(np.int32)\nall_events[\"i_idx\"] = all_events.item_id.map(item2idx).astype(np.int32)\n\nt1 = time.time()\nprint(f\"All events concatenated in {t1-t0:.2f}s, total rows: {len(all_events)}\")\n\n# First seen ts per (u_idx, i_idx)\nfirst_seen = all_events.groupby([\"u_idx\", \"i_idx\"])[\"timestamp\"].min().reset_index()\nfirst_seen.rename(columns={\"timestamp\": \"first_ts\"}, inplace=True)\nt2 = time.time()\nprint(f\"First seen computed in {t2-t1:.2f}s, unique pairs: {len(first_seen)}\")\n'" } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T06:17:25.423Z Output: All events concatenated in 5.49s, total rows: 15130194 First seen computed in 1.45s, unique pairs: 4945303 Process Group PGID: 2734 ## Step 61 · agent · 2026-09-29T06:17:32.026Z ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining Discovery Speed The computation time has been drastically reduced to 1.45 seconds.

This initial result is highly encouraging. ### Recorded reasoning summary Investigating Performance Degradation My analysis reveals a concerning trend: while loss consistently decreased across epochs, my Val NDCG@10 peaked early and then degraded. This suggests overfitting, potentially due to duplicate parameter updates from the shared item embedding, an aggressive learning rate without regularization, or an imbalanced weighting of graded feedback within the loss function. ### Recorded reasoning summary Adjusting Training Parameters I'm exploring several avenues to combat the observed performance degradation. Specifically, I'm considering oversampling positive feedback to a weight of 7.0 and examining the impact of the item bias and user preference scaling. Additionally, I'm investigating the temperature parameter, regularization techniques like L2 and dropout, and ensuring user history features are correctly integrated into the training data. ### update_topic · 2026-09-29T06:24:50.289Z { "summary": "Initial prototype achieved 0.012502 NDCG@10 on epoch 1, outperforming the popularity baseline (0.01071).

However, a significant number of `train_likes` pairs are absent from `validation_preference_state`. This suggests a potential disconnect in how these datasets are being defined, particularly regarding the "active explicit state at the training cutoff." ### Recorded reasoning summary Clarifying State Logic I've realized that `validation_preference_state` only captures the *active* explicit states at the cutoff, meaning expired or reversed likes aren't included. `train_likes`, however, includes historical data. This distinction is key to understanding the observed discrepancies. ### Recorded reasoning summary Fixing Optimizer Double Counts I've identified a critical issue where `shared_item_emb.weight` was being included twice in the optimizer. This was causing corrupted Adam momentum buffers and a doubled effective learning rate. I've corrected this by carefully constructing the parameter list to ensure each tensor is counted only once. **Investigating Dimension Splits** I'm now examining the dimension splits between `pref` and `pop` in both user and item forward passes. Specifically, I'm questioning the normalization of `pref` in both cases and the magnitude or norm of `pop`, as this might be contributing to observed behaviors. ### Recorded reasoning summary Revising Model Formulation I've discovered that the popularity term was disproportionately influencing the dot product, effectively drowning out the taste dimensions and leading to model degradation. I'm now exploring L2 normalization of user and item vectors to rectify this. ### Recorded reasoning summary Testing New Hypotheses I'm now focused on implementing and testing several new ideas to improve the model. This includes exploring temperature scaling for logits, investigating shared versus separate item embeddings, and adjusting loss weights to prioritize organic likes. I'm also incorporating L2 normalization for user and item vectors and a lower learning rate. ### write_file · 2026-09-29T06:25:59.956Z { "content": "import os\nimport sys\nimport time\nimport math\nimport subprocess\nfrom pathlib import Path\n\nimport numpy as np\nimport pandas as pd\nimport pyarrow.parquet as pq\nimport torch\nimport torch.nn as nn\nimport torch.nn.functional as F\n\nsys.path.append(\"/task\")\nfrom ranking_evaluation import CandidateSet, score_rankings\n\nDATA_DIR = Path(\"/task/data\")\nCUTOFF = 24786800 # train cutoff\nWEEK = 7 * 86400\nNUM_WEEKS = 6\nEMB_DIM = 64\nOUT_DIM = 64\nHIDDEN_DIM = 128\nBATCH_SIZE = 512\nNUM_NEGATIVES = 512\nNUM_EPOCHS = 10\nLR = 5e-4\nWEIGHT_DECAY = 1e-4\nTEMP = 0.05\nMAX_LEN_LIKES = 64\nMAX_LEN_ORG = 64\nMAX_LEN_ALL = 64\nMAX_LEN_DIS = 16\n\ntorch.set_num_threads(8)\ndevice = torch.device(\"cpu\")\n\nprint(\"--- Starting Two-Tower Experiment v2 ---\")\nt_start = time.time()\n\n# 1.

Specifically, I'm investigating the drop in loss from Epoch 3 to Epoch 4, aiming to pinpoint the contributing factors within `experiment_v2.py`. ### Recorded reasoning summary Investigating False Negatives I'm digging into how in-batch negatives are potentially harming performance. It appears popular items, sampled as negatives for multiple users simultaneously, are being unfairly penalized, leading to a "false negative penalty." I'm considering how to address this by modifying negative sampling. ### Recorded reasoning summary Exploring Ranking Losses I'm evaluating two primary strategies: Sampled Softmax with catalog negatives or BPR/Margin Ranking Loss. BPR seems promising as it isolates user-specific evaluations, avoiding the "false negative penalty" by not treating other batch items as negatives and directly optimizing pairwise ranking. ### Recorded reasoning summary Testing Catalog Negatives I'm now focusing on implementing a quick experiment in `experiment_v3.py` to directly test the sampled softmax approach using catalog negatives. This should help validate the hypothesis that avoiding in-batch negatives and using uniform catalog samples will mitigate the "false negative penalty" and reduce disproportionate punishment of popular items. ### run_shell_command · 2026-09-29T06:31:18.801Z { "command": "python3 -c '\nimport torch\nimport torch.nn.functional as F\n\nB = 4\nM = 8\nD = 16\nTEMP = 0.05\n\nu = torch.randn(B, D)\nu = F.normalize(u, dim=-1)\n\nv_pos = torch.randn(B, D)\nv_pos = F.normalize(v_pos, dim=-1)\n\nv_neg = torch.randn(M, D)\nv_neg = F.normalize(v_neg, dim=-1)\n\n# Diagonal pos scores: (B, 1)\ns_pos = (u * v_pos).sum(dim=-1, keepdim=True) / TEMP\n\n# Neg scores: (B, M)\ns_neg = torch.matmul(u, v_neg.t()) / TEMP\n\n# Concatenate: (B, M + 1)\nlogits = torch.cat([s_pos, s_neg], dim=-1)\ntargets = torch.zeros(B, dtype=torch.long)\n\nloss = F.cross_entropy(logits, targets)\nprint(\"Logits shape:\", logits.shape, \"targets:\", targets, \"loss:\", loss.item())\n'", "description": "Test sampled softmax loss with shared catalog negatives" } ### Tool output · 2026-09-29T06:31:21.770Z Output: Logits shape: torch.Size([4, 9]) targets: tensor([0, 0, 0, 0]) loss: 5.511636734008789 Process Group PGID: 2971 ## Step 72 · agent · 2026-09-29T06:34:22.034Z ### Recorded reasoning summary Observing Tensor Shapes I'm analyzing the concatenation of `s_pos` and `s_neg` logits, noting the resulting tensor shape of `(B, M + 1)` and its target value of 0.

This represents a substantial improvement. ### Recorded reasoning summary Refining Negative Sampling I've pinpointed that my recent performance surge is due to true sampled negatives, preference state integration, and item feature enrichment. The progression of NDCG@10 has been remarkably consistent, with each epoch completing swiftly. ### Recorded reasoning summary Testing Recency Weighting I'm now exploring the impact of recency weighting on user preferences, applying an exponential decay to give more importance to recent interactions. Simultaneously, I'm investigating the benefits of expanding the training window range and increasing model capacity through larger embedding dimensions. ### Recorded reasoning summary Investigating Hyperparameter Tuning I'm now delving into the specifics of hyperparameter optimization. Specifically, I'm examining the impact of embedding dimension size on generalization without overfitting and exploring alternative weightings for different grade levels in the discovery objective. Additionally, I'm considering a margin bonus for higher-graded items. ### Recorded reasoning summary Evaluating Model Stability I'm observing a slight dip in NDCG@10 in epoch 6 compared to epoch 5, indicating potential overfitting. I need to ensure I'm saving the best performing model weights from validation epochs. My current focus is on properly refitting the model using both training and validation data before hidden-test evaluation, treating validation events as historical data. ### update_topic · 2026-09-29T06:40:06.274Z { "title": "Validation Tuning & Model Refinement", "strategic_intent": "Systematically test recency weighting, hyperparameter tuning, model capacity, and checkpointing on validation.", "summary": "Sampled negatives and preference state integration boosted NDCG@10 from 0.01071 to 0.029074 (almost 3x improvement).

This involves considering the timestamp of each historical interaction to calculate its age and then using that to influence its contribution. ### Recorded reasoning summary Tuning Decay Rates I'm refining the exponential decay rate ($\lambda$) for interaction recency, aiming for a 30-day half-life. This means interactions from 60 days ago will have a weight of 0.25, ensuring recent preferences dominate while still acknowledging older ones. The integration into `UserTower.pool` is straightforward, promising efficient updates. ### write_file · 2026-09-29T06:40:40.643Z { "file_path": "/app/solution/experiment_v4.py", "content": "import os\nimport sys\nimport time\nimport math\nimport subprocess\nfrom pathlib import Path\n\nimport numpy as np\nimport pandas as pd\nimport pyarrow.parquet as pq\nimport torch\nimport torch.nn as nn\nimport torch.nn.functional as F\n\nsys.path.append(\"/task\")\nfrom ranking_evaluation import CandidateSet, score_rankings\n\nDATA_DIR = Path(\"/task/data\")\nCUTOFF = 24786800 # train cutoff\nWEEK = 7 * 86400\nNUM_WEEKS = 8\nEMB_DIM = 64\nOUT_DIM = 64\nHIDDEN_DIM = 128\nBATCH_SIZE = 512\nNUM_NEGATIVES = 1024\nNUM_EPOCHS = 8\nLR = 5e-4\nWEIGHT_DECAY = 1e-4\nTEMP = 0.05\nMAX_LEN_LIKES = 64\nMAX_LEN_ORG = 64\nMAX_LEN_ALL = 64\nMAX_LEN_DIS = 16\nHALF_LIFE_DAYS = 30.0\nLAMBDA_DECAY = math.log(2.0) / (HALF_LIFE_DAYS * 86400.0)\n\ntorch.set_num_threads(8)\ndevice = torch.device(\"cpu\")\n\nprint(\"--- Starting Two-Tower Experiment v4 (Recency Weighting + 8 Weeks) ---\")\nt_start = time.time()\n\n# 1.

This marks the best performance so far. The optimal model checkpoint has been saved for future use. I am now exploring further optimizations. ### Recorded reasoning summary Tackling Overfitting I've identified a slight overfitting tendency past Epoch 4, as evidenced by the validation NDCG declining while training loss continues to drop. I'm now investigating techniques like increasing weight decay and dropout to improve generalization. Additionally, I'm considering expanding history sequence lengths to better capture user behavior. ### Recorded reasoning summary Optimizing Model Dynamics I'm now considering how longer histories might enrich user profiles, potentially influencing the peak performance observed around Epoch 4. I'm also exploring cosine annealing with T_max=5 to encourage convergence in flatter minima, and adding a margin to Grade 3 item scores to further boost their ranking. ### write_file · 2026-09-29T06:46:12.499Z { "content": "import os\nimport sys\nimport time\nimport math\nimport subprocess\nfrom pathlib import Path\n\nimport numpy as np\nimport pandas as pd\nimport pyarrow.parquet as pq\nimport torch\nimport torch.nn as nn\nimport torch.nn.functional as F\n\nsys.path.append(\"/task\")\nfrom ranking_evaluation import CandidateSet, score_rankings\n\nDATA_DIR = Path(\"/task/data\")\nCUTOFF = 24786800 # train cutoff\nWEEK = 7 * 86400\nNUM_WEEKS = 8\nEMB_DIM = 128\nOUT_DIM = 128\nHIDDEN_DIM = 256\nBATCH_SIZE = 512\nNUM_NEGATIVES = 1024\nNUM_EPOCHS = 6\nLR = 5e-4\nWEIGHT_DECAY = 5e-4\nDROPOUT = 0.2\nTEMP = 0.05\nMARGIN_G3 = 0.15\nMAX_LEN_LIKES = 128\nMAX_LEN_ORG = 128\nMAX_LEN_ALL = 64\nMAX_LEN_DIS = 16\nHALF_LIFE_DAYS = 45.0\nLAMBDA_DECAY = math.log(2.0) / (HALF_LIFE_DAYS * 86400.0)\n\ntorch.set_num_threads(8)\ndevice = torch.device(\"cpu\")\n\nprint(\"--- Starting Two-Tower Experiment v5 (Dim 128, Margin, Stronger Reg) ---\")\nt_start = time.time()\n\n# 1.
