# Build a latency-efficient PyTorch two-tower neural-network ranker
Build a two-tower neural network in CPU PyTorch for the "Made for You" shelf of
a music streaming service. 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.

"type": "skill_listing",
"content": "- dataviz: Use this skill whenever you are about to create ANY chart, graph, plot, dashboard, or data visualization, in ANY output medium — an HTML or React artifact, inline SVG, plotting code in any library (matplotlib, plotly, d3, Recharts, …), an image/PNG you will render and upload, or a chart shared into Slack. Read it BEFORE writing the first line of chart code, choosing chart colors, building a stat tile / meter / KPI row, or laying out a dashboard. When the destination is a first-party document connector (host-designated, never self-described) that renders live charts, hand it the rows (inline, or as an uploaded data file the chart cites) rather than a rendered PNG/SVG — a picture of a chart loses hover, data inspection and per-value comments. Produces visualizations that read as one system — elegant, accessible, consistent in light and dark — using a brand-neutral placeholder palette you swap for your own. Teaches a design-system-agnostic method: a form heuristic, a color formula with a runnable validator, mark specs, and interaction rules. A validated default palette is documented in `references/palette.md` — swap that file's values for your brand's. Triggers on: \"chart\", \"graph\", \"plot\", \"data viz\", \"visualization\", \"dashboard\", \"analytics\", \"visualize data\", \"categorical colors\", \"sequential / diverging palette\", \"stat tile\", \"sparkline\", \"heatmap\", \"legend\", \"axis\", \"tooltip\", \"chart colors\", \"color by series\".\n- update-config: Use this skill to configure the Claude Code harness via settings.json. Automated behaviors (\"from now on when X\", \"each time X\", \"whenever X\", \"before/after X\") require hooks configured in settings.json - the harness executes these, not Claude, so memory/preferences cannot fulfill them. Also use for: permissions (\"allow X\", \"add permission\", \"move permission to\"), env vars (\"set X=Y\"), hook troubleshooting, or any changes to settings.json/settings.local.json files. Examples: \"allow npm commands\", \"add bq permission to global settings\", \"move permission to user settings\", \"set DEBUG=true\", \"when claude stops show X\". For simple settings like theme/model, suggest the /config command.\n- keybindings-help: Use when the user wants to customize keyboard shortcuts, rebind keys, add chord bindings, or modify ~/.claude/keybindings.json. Examples: \"rebind ctrl+s\", \"add a chord shortcut\", \"change the submit key\", \"customize keybindings\".\n- code-review: Review the current diff, or a PR number/branch/path target, for correctness bugs (plus reuse/simplification/efficiency cleanups where the model's review recipe covers them) at the given effort level (low/medium: fewer, high-confidence findings; high→max: broader coverage, may include uncertain findings); with no level given, it reuses the level you typed last. Pass --comment to post findings as inline PR comments, or --fix to apply the findings to the working tree after the review.\n- simplify: Review the changed code for reuse, simplification, efficiency, and altitude cleanups, then apply the fixes. Quality only — it does not hunt for bugs; use /code-review for that.\n- fewer-permission-prompts: Scan your transcripts for common read-only Bash and MCP tool calls, then add a prioritized allowlist to project .claude/settings.json to reduce permission prompts.\n- loop: Run a prompt or slash command on a recurring interval (e.g. /loop 5m /foo). Omit the interval to let the model self-pace. - When the user wants to set up a recurring task, poll for status, or run something repeatedly on an interval (e.g. \"check the deploy every 5 minutes\", \"keep running /babysit-prs\"). Do NOT invoke for one-off tasks.\n- schedule: Create, update, list, or run scheduled cloud agents (routines) that execute on a cron schedule. - When the user wants to schedule a recurring cloud agent, set up automated tasks, create a cron job for Claude Code, or manage their scheduled agents/routines. Also use when the user wants a one-time scheduled run (\"run this once at 3pm\", \"remind me to check X tomorrow\").\n- claude-api: Reference for the Claude API / Anthropic SDK — model ids, pricing, params, streaming, tool use, MCP, agents, caching, token counting, model migration.\nTRIGGER — read BEFORE opening the target file; don't skip because it \"looks like a one-liner\" — whenever: the prompt names Claude/Anthropic in any form (Claude, Anthropic, Fable, Opus, Sonnet, Haiku, `anthropic`, `@anthropic-ai`, `claude-*`, `us.anthropic.*`, `[1m]`); the user asks about an LLM (pricing/model choice/limits/caching) — never answer from memory; OR the task is LLM-shaped with provider unstated (agent/MCP/tool-definition/multi-agent/RAG/LLM-judge/computer-use; generate/summarize/extract/classify/rewrite/converse over NL; debugging refusals/cutoffs/streaming/tool-calls/tokens).\nSKIP only when another provider is being worked on (overrides all triggers): OpenAI/GPT/Gemini/Llama/Mistral/Cohere/Ollama named in the query; OR `grep -rE 'openai|langchain_openai|google.generativeai|genai|mistralai|cohere|ollama'` over the project hits (run this grep FIRST if no provider named — don't Read the file).\n- workflow-authoring: Reference for writing a Workflow tool script (script API and gotchas, resume, quality patterns, worked examples). Load before authoring a script for a workflow the user already opted into; it does not itself authorize running one.\n- run: Launch and drive this project's app to see a change working. Use when asked to run, start, or screenshot the app, or to confirm a change works in the real app (not just tests). First looks for a project skill that already covers launching the app; otherwise falls back to built-in patterns per project type (CLI, server, TUI, Electron, browser-driven, library).\n- init: Initialize a new CLAUDE.md file with codebase documentation\n- security-review: Complete a security review of the pending changes on the current branch",

"""Score a validation-stage ranking against public discovery labels.
``build_task.py`` publishes this module with the solver-visible task files. It
loads target users, validation eligibility, and validation-window events from
the adjacent ``data`` directory, then evaluates one ranking supplied on the
command line. Stage-independent mechanics come from the adjacent public
``ranking_evaluation.py`` module. The builder installs the same checked-in
module in the private judge, so public and private scoring mechanics cannot
drift. A relevant candidate receives grade 3 for an organic like or grade 1 for
an organic listen with at least 80 percent completion; a like takes precedence
when both events exist.
Before scoring, the ranking must contain exactly 100 distinct eligible items
for every target user, with integer-valued ``uid``, ``item_id``, and ``rank``
columns and ranks 1 through 100 exactly once per user. Extra columns are
ignored. Quality is graded NDCG@10, averaged only over users who have at least
one eligible relevant item in the validation window.
The evaluator prints a JSON object containing the model path and scores. It
does not apply the task's pass threshold; its purpose is model development and
selection. The private judge applies the threshold to the final submission.

Instead schedule a long fallback (1200s+) so the loop survives if the work hangs or never notifies. The exception is external work the harness cannot track (a CI run, a deploy, a remote queue) — there, pick a delay matched to how fast that state actually changes.\n\nPass the same /loop prompt back via `prompt` each turn so the next firing repeats the task. For an autonomous /loop (no user prompt), pass the literal sentinel `<>` as `prompt` instead — the runtime resolves it back to the autonomous-loop instructions at fire time. (There is a similar `<>` sentinel for CronCreate-based autonomous loops; do not confuse the two — ScheduleWakeup always uses the `-dynamic` variant.) To end the loop, call this tool with `stop: true` (omit every other field) — the loop ends immediately and no further wakeups fire.\n\nSet `noop: true` if nothing changed — you checked and there's nothing to report (\"no change\", \"still waiting\", \"quiet hold\"). Set `noop: false` if something happened worth keeping — you edited a file, posted a message, advanced state, or surfaced a finding.

Nothing is built from a global user-item matrix\n factorization: each user gets sparse per-user history lists (bags); each item gets aggregate stats.\n Labels for a cutoff T: organic like (grade 3) / organic ≥80% listen (grade 1) in (T+30min, T+30min+7d],\n restricted to never-listened items (the eligible sets turned out to be exactly \"never listened before\").\n- `model.py` – the two towers:\n - **User tower** (no user-ID lookup): 6 weighted EmbeddingBags over history channels\n (positive listens log-count, 14-day recency-decayed positives, organic ≥80% listens, skips, active likes,\n active dislikes; 1/sqrt(n) normalised) + 5 user activity scalars → MLP 512→256→128, plus a constant 1.\n - **Item tower**: item-ID embedding (64) + 30 standardized cutoff-relative item stats (1d/7d/28d/all-time\n positive, organic-strong, first-listen, like, dislike counts; ratios; item age/recency) → MLP 256→129\n (last coordinate acts as item bias, paired with the user's constant 1).\n - Score = exact dot product of the two 129-d vectors → item vectors can be precomputed offline into a MIPS index.\n- `train.py` – training objective: graded listwise **sampled softmax** per user: candidates = batch positives ∪\n 4096 uniformly sampled catalog items (scales to millions of items; no full-catalog softmax), already-listened\n items masked, positive targets weighted by gain 2^grade−1. Training examples come from several\n pseudo-cutoffs (weekly, before the ranking cutoff), each with history strictly before the cutoff and labels\n in the following gapped 7-day window. AdamW lr 2e-3, 2 epochs, batch 256 users.\n- `write_ranking.py` – top-100 over each user's eligible candidate mask.\n\n## Validation (train_* as history only, val_* as outcomes)\n- Two-tower (this config): see `run_final.log` (`val ndcg`); earlier runs gave 0.0317 NDCG@10.\n- Reference: best single popularity-trend heuristic 0.0332. The neural model did not beat it within the\n 60-minute budget (ID embeddings overfit after ~1–2 epochs).\n\n## Final submission\nRefit on train_* + val_* (validation events become history; cutoffs shifted one week), rank at the test cutoff:\n```sh\npython prep.py\npython train.py val 2 3 605600 1e-5 2e-3 # validation run -> validation.parquet\npython train.py test 2 3 605600 1e-5 2e-3 # refit -> submission_nn.parquet, copied to submission.parquet\npython /task/evaluate_public.py validation.parquet\n```\nEOF\nsleep 30; cat /app/solution/run_final.log"

The two-tower model is built and `/app/solution/submission.parquet` is written and valid, but it does not beat a simple popularity baseline. It scores **0.0286 NDCG@10** on public validation, while ranking eligible items by recent popularity alone scores 0.0332. Each target user has exactly 100 ranked items, and every item is in that user's test candidate set; I checked this with the shared evaluation module.
**What the data showed:** the eligible candidates are exactly the tracks a user has never listened to, and none of the relevant validation items were heard before. So this is purely a discovery task: repeat listening, usually the strongest signal in this kind of data, can't help.
**Model (`model.py`, `train.py`):**
- **User tower:** built only from listening history, with no user-ID lookup. It pools six kinds of history: positive listens, recent positive listens, organic listens of 80% or more, skips, active likes and active dislikes. A few activity numbers are added, and a small network turns it all into one vector.
- **Item tower:** an item-ID embedding plus 30 item statistics computed as of the cutoff (recent and all-time listen, like and dislike counts, and first-time-listener counts). A small network produces the item vector.
- **Score:** exactly the dot product of the two vectors. The item's bias is paired with a constant 1 in the user vector, so item vectors can be computed offline and put in a nearest-neighbour index.
- **Training:** each user's softmax runs over their positives plus 4,096 randomly sampled catalog items, so it scales to a large catalog and never builds or factorises a user-item matrix. Items the user already heard are excluded, and positives are weighted by the metric's gain (likes count 7×, strong listens 1×). Training examples come from earlier weekly cutoffs, each with history before the cutoff and labels from the following 7-day window, matching the real setup.
- **Final model:** refit on train plus validation events (validation becomes history), then ranked at the test cutoff.
**Limitations:**
- The item embeddings overfit after one or two passes over the data. I tried smaller embeddings, stronger weight decay, more training cutoffs and sharing the item table between the towers; none got past popularity within the time limit.
- Results vary a lot between runs: an earlier run of the same final setup scored 0.0317.
- The submitted file comes from the neural model, as the task requires. I kept the popularity ranking as a backup at `cache/submission_popularity_fallback.parquet`. It would probably score higher on the hidden test, but it isn't a two-tower model.
Everything is in `/app/solution/`: the code files above plus `features.py`, `prep.py` and `write_ranking.py`, the saved models `model_val.pt` and `model_test.pt`, `validation.parquet`, `run_final.log`, and `README.md` with the architecture, objective, validation score and the commands to rebuild the submission.
