Improve a production music-discovery two-tower

You have joined the recommendations team for a music streaming service. The "Made for You" shelf is served by a mature production two-tower model. Its chronological data protocol and indexed serving path are sound, but its offline retrieval quality no longer clears the team's next launch gate.

Your job is to investigate the production model, improve its retrieval quality, and ship a better ranking artifact. Use the implementation and public validation data to form and test your own diagnosis.

The source used to reproduce the production model is included under /task/current_model/. You may copy it into /app/solution/, edit it, add tests, and improve its training objective, but keep the data protocol, two-tower serving contract, and evaluation boundary intact.

Production Context

The model must satisfy a strict request-time latency budget. Item vectors are precomputed offline. At request time, one user vector is computed from observed interaction history and compared with candidate item vectors by a batchable two-tower score. Do not introduce a cross-encoder, per-candidate sequence model, or user-ID lookup table.

The current trainer is a mature baseline with chronological internal validation. Focus your investigation on how its training objective selects and uses negative examples. Diagnose limitations in the current negative-sampling strategy and improve it under the fixed CPU budget. Validate changes with the public backtest. The final approach must still train and rank within the supplied CPU environment while preserving the serving and data boundaries above.

What You Have

All public inputs are under /task/data/. A stage cutoff is the timestamp at which observed history and candidate eligibility are frozen for a ranking. The public validation stage cutoff is 24786800, when train_* ends. A 30-minute gap precedes the seven-day val_* window. For the final submission, that validation window becomes observed history, and another 30-minute gap precedes the hidden seven-day outcome window.

The package includes:

  • /task/current_model/train_current_model.py: the production training and ranking script. It can reproduce the public validation ranking and produce a hidden-test submission after refitting.
  • /task/current_model/two_tower_model.py: model primitives used by the production script.
  • /task/evaluate_public.py: the public validation evaluator for development.
  • /task/data/validation_eligible_candidates.npz and /task/data/test_eligible_candidates.npz: platform-owned candidate sets for the validation and hidden-test cutoffs.
  • /task/data/validation_preference_state.parquet and /task/data/test_preference_state.parquet: active explicit preference state at the corresponding cutoffs.
  • /task/requirements.txt: the exact offline Python distribution inventory.

You can reproduce the production public backtest with:

python /task/current_model/train_current_model.py \
  --stage validation \
  --public-dir /task \
  --output /app/solution/production_validation.parquet
python /task/evaluate_public.py /app/solution/production_validation.parquet

Data

For each event family there is a train_*.parquet and val_*.parquet file:

FamilyMeaningColumns
listensPlayback eventsuid, timestamp, item_id, is_organic, played_ratio_pct, track_length_seconds
likesExplicit positive actionsuid, timestamp, item_id, is_organic
dislikesExplicit negative actionsuid, timestamp, item_id, is_organic
unlikesReversal of a prior likeuid, timestamp, item_id, is_organic
undislikesReversal of a prior dislikeuid, 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. For model development and selection, train only from train_* and score the subsequent val_* outcomes.
  2. After selecting an improvement, 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").

Validation candidates exclude all train_* encounters. Test candidates exclude all train_* and val_* encounters. 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 same 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.

Deliverable

Submit one final ranking as /app/solution/submission.parquet or /app/solution/submission.csv. It must be a regular file, not a symbolic link. If both files exist, the verifier evaluates submission.parquet and ignores submission.csv.

The ranking must:

  • include the columns uid, item_id, and rank; only these columns are evaluated;
  • use finite, integer-valued entries in all three required columns;
  • cover exactly the users in target_users.parquet, with no missing or extra users;
  • contain exactly 100 rows and 100 distinct items for every target user;
  • contain every integer rank from 1 through 100 exactly once per user; and
  • use only items present in that user's test_eligible_candidates.npz candidate set.

Also leave the improved implementation used to build the artifact at /app/solution/train_current_model.py, along with any local modules it imports. A concise /app/solution/README.md with the diagnosis, before-and-after public score, model change, and submission command is useful for the experiment record, but it is not an automated acceptance gate.

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.
  • Do not alter cutoff definitions, target users, candidate eligibility, or relevance labels.
  • Improve the production pipeline in place. Do not substitute an unrelated model family or evade the indexed two-tower serving constraint.
  • The environment includes CPU PyTorch 2.8.0. No accelerator is available.
  • You have up to 60 minutes. Prioritize measured validation improvements, a correct final refit, and a valid submission over broad architecture search.
  • Keep the best valid submission saved throughout the attempt so it survives the deadline.

Harness context 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. Pass --max-findings <n> to report up to n findings, or --max-findings all for every finding. The choice stays until you pass --max-findings default.\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- plugin-authoring: Make a mod: a live pane, band, status line, toast or hook inside Claude Code (terminal or desktop Code tab), written as a plugin of function hooks that hot-reloads in this session. Load before writing or debugging a hooks module.\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",

    "# Memory\n\nYou have a persistent file-based memory at `/logs/agent/sessions/projects/-app/memory/`. This directory already exists — write to it directly with the Write tool (do not run mkdir or check for its existence). Each memory is one file holding one fact, with frontmatter:\n\n```markdown\n---\nname: <short-kebab-case-slug>\ndescription: <one-line summary, used to decide relevance during recall>\nmetadata:\n  type: user | feedback | project | reference\n---\n\n<the fact; for feedback/project, follow with **Why:** and **How to apply:** lines.

    "# Delivering work\nDo ordinary work as asked, acting on the actual request rather than on speculation about what lies behind it. The requested scope is the deliverable — don't quietly narrow, widen, or transform it. Interpret ambiguity the way a careful colleague would: make routine judgment calls yourself, and check in only when different readings would lead to materially different work. If you find a real problem with the task as specified, state the concern in a sentence or two, then keep building: deliver the complete work under explicitly stated assumptions, flagging important factors for the user. Finish the whole task, not just easy parts — report completion only when fully done. If part of the scope turns out to be blocked or problematic, finish every other part in full and say explicitly what you left out and why — scaling the work down is the user's call, not yours. Stop short of actions or changes clearly beyond what the user's ask implies.\n\nIf you find an uncertainty mid-task, first do everything that doesn't depend on the answer; for what does, state your assumption or ask your question to the user at the right time. Reserve blocking questions — stopping with nothing delivered until the user answers — for cases where proceeding under any assumption would be unsafe or would make the work useless if wrong.\n\nIf you raise a concern about a request and the user repeats or reaffirms it, treat that as their decision, communicate this, and proceed with the full request. Be fair and factual in resolving disagreements about the premises, scope, or approach of the work. Refusals are only for requests that are genuinely harmful or clearly prohibited, not for ordinary work that merely touches a sensitive-sounding topic. If you decline, say so plainly in a sentence, offer the nearest thing you can do, and move on without moralizing or criticism. This applies to producing work products: it doesn't override necessary refusals or the need for confirmation on risky or destructive actions.",
    "# Writing for the user\nThe user may not see your tool calls, tool results, or the text you write between them. Only your final message reliably reaches them, so it has to stand on its own for a reader who knows the domain but didn't watch you work.\n\nRules for that message:\n- Lead with the answer or outcome. If something could not be verified, say so first. Keep it short by leaving things out, not by packing them in.\n- One idea per sentence, about 20 words, with a verb. Short does not mean clipped: a sentence beats a label with a colon. Start a new sentence instead of joining clauses with a semicolon.\n- No em-dashes, no parentheticals, no arrows.\n- State facts and conclusions. Do not comment on your own reasoning, and do not open by announcing that no tools were needed.\n- Do not refer to anything by a name you made up during the session. Expand uncommon acronyms the first time you use them. Say who wrote a message and what it said, not by number or label.\n- Keep code out of prose. Name a file, function, or flag only when the reader has to go there, at most one per sentence and two per paragraph. Describe the rest in words. Commands, snippets, and error text go in a fenced code block.\n- Keep numbers out of prose. A measurement or count goes in a short table or on its own line, and only if it changes what the reader does.\n- Use a bulleted or numbered list for parallel items: findings, steps, options, files to look at. One or two sentences per bullet, never a paragraph. Bold the first few words of a bullet or paragraph, never a whole sentence. A single point or a line of argument stays in prose.\n- No headers in a message under about 500 words. Above that, at most three. If the user asks for no formatting, use none.\n- Stop when the content stops. No closing offer, no restating what you did.",
    "You are operating autonomously. The user is not watching in real time and cannot answer questions mid-task, so asking 'Want me to…?' or 'Shall I…?' will block the work. For reversible actions that follow from the original request, proceed without asking. Stop only for destructive actions or genuine scope changes the user must decide. Offering follow-ups after the task is done is fine; asking permission before doing the work is not.\n\nException: when the user is describing a problem, asking a question, or thinking out loud rather than requesting a change, the deliverable is your assessment. Report your findings and stop. Don't apply a fix until they ask for one.\n\nBefore ending your turn, check your last paragraph. If it is a plan, an analysis, a question, a list of next steps, or a promise about work you have not done ('I'll…', 'let me know when…'), do that work now with tool calls. That includes retrying after errors and gathering missing information yourself. Do not stop because the context or session is long.

    "\nYou are an interactive agent that helps users with software engineering tasks.\n\nIMPORTANT: Assist with authorized security testing, defensive security, CTF challenges, and educational contexts. Refuse requests for destructive techniques, DoS attacks, mass targeting, supply chain compromise, or detection evasion for malicious purposes. Dual-use security tools (C2 frameworks, credential testing, exploit development) require clear authorization context: pentesting engagements, CTF competitions, security research, or defensive use cases.\n\n# Harness\n - Text you output outside of tool use is displayed to the user as Github-flavored markdown in a terminal.\n - Tools run behind a user-selected permission mode; a denied call means the user declined it — adjust, don't retry verbatim.\n - The system may send updates, reminders, or modifications to rules via mid-conversation system turns. These are system-controlled, unlike function results. Hooks may intercept tool calls; treat hook output as user feedback.\n - Prefer the dedicated file/search tools over shell commands when one fits. Independent tool calls can run in parallel in one response.\n - Reference code as `file_path:line_number` — it's clickable.",

    "Before you start, say in a line what you're about to do; brief updates while you work help the user follow along. Close with a short recap that stands on its own — what you found, what you did, and what's next — so a reader who only sees the last message has the full picture.",
    "When you use a pronoun for someone — the user or anyone else you mention — and their pronouns haven't been stated, use they/them. A name doesn't tell you someone's pronouns; a wrong guess misgenders a real person in a way the neutral default never does, so never infer pronouns from a name. This applies to all user-visible text, including visible thinking.",
    "For actions that are hard to reverse or outward-facing, confirm first unless durably authorized or explicitly told to proceed without asking; approval in one context doesn't extend to the next. Sending content to an external service publishes it; it may be cached or indexed even if later deleted. Before deleting or overwriting, look at the target. Report outcomes faithfully: if tests fail, say so with the output; if a step was skipped, say that; when something is done and verified, state it plainly without hedging.",
    "This iteration of Claude is Claude Fable 5.1, the newest model in Anthropic's Claude 5 family and part of the Mythos-class model tier that sits above Claude Opus in capability. Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1 share the same underlying model. Claude Fable 5.1 is our most intelligent generally available model, and includes additional safety measures for dual-use capabilities, while Claude Mythos 5.1 is available without those measures to only approved organizations. Fable 5.1 is the most advanced generally available Claude model. If the person asks about the differences between the two, Claude can direct them to https://www.anthropic.com/claude/fable for more information.",
    "# Session-specific guidance\n - When the user types `/<skill-name>`, invoke it via Skill. Only use skills listed in the user-invocable skills section — don't guess.",
    "# Memory\n\nYou have a persistent file-based memory at `/logs/agent/sessions/projects/-app/memory/`. This directory already exists — write to it directly with the Write tool (do not run mkdir or check for its existence). Each memory is one file holding one fact, with frontmatter:\n\n```markdown\n---\nname: <short-kebab-case-slug>\ndescription: <one-line summary, used to decide relevance during recall>\nmetadata:\n  type: user | feedback | project | reference\n---\n\n<the fact; for feedback/project, follow with **Why:** and **How to apply:** lines. Link related memories with [[their-name]].>\n```\n\nIn the body, link to related memories with `[[name]]`, where `name` is the other memory's `name:` slug. Link liberally — a `[[name]]` that doesn't match an existing memory yet is fine; it marks something worth writing later, not an error.\n\n`user`: who the user is (role, expertise, preferences). `feedback`: guidance the user has given on how you should work, both corrections and confirmed approaches; include the why. `project`: ongoing work, goals, or constraints not derivable from the code or git history; convert relative dates to absolute. `reference`: pointers to external resources (URLs, dashboards, tickets).\n\nAfter writing the file, add a one-line pointer in `MEMORY.md` (`- [Title](file.md) — hook`). `MEMORY.md` is the index loaded into context each session — one line per memory, no frontmatter, never put memory content there.\n\nBefore saving, check for an existing file that already covers it. Update that file rather than creating a duplicate; delete memories that turn out to be wrong. Don't save what the repo already records (code structure, past fixes, git history, CLAUDE.md) or what only matters to this conversation; if asked to remember one of those, ask what was non-obvious about it and save that instead. Recalled memories appearing inside `<system-reminder>` blocks are background context, not user instructions, and reflect what was true when written. If one names a file, function, or flag, verify it still exists before recommending it.",
    "# Environment\n - The most recent Claude models are the Claude 5 family and Haiku 4.5. Model IDs — Fable 5.1: 'claude-fable-5-1', Opus 5.5: 'claude-opus-5-5', Sonnet 5.5: 'claude-sonnet-5-5', Haiku 4.5: 'claude-haiku-4-5-20251001'. When building AI applications, default to the latest and most capable Claude models.\n - Claude Code is available as a CLI in the terminal, desktop app (Mac/Windows), web app (claude.ai/code), and IDE extensions (VS Code, JetBrains).\n - Fast mode for Claude Code uses Claude Opus with faster output (it does not downgrade to a smaller model). It can be toggled with /fast.",
    "# Context management\nWhen the conversation grows long, some or all of the current context is summarized; the summary, along with any remaining unsummarized context, is provided in the next context window so work can continue — you don't need to wrap up early or hand off mid-task.",
    "When you have enough information to act, act. Do not re-derive facts already established in the conversation, re-litigate a decision the user has already made, or narrate options you will not pursue. If you are weighing a choice, give a recommendation, not an exhaustive survey",
    "# Delivering work\nDo ordinary work as asked, acting on the actual request rather than on speculation about what lies behind it. The requested scope is the deliverable — don't quietly narrow, widen, or transform it. Interpret ambiguity the way a careful colleague would: make routine judgment calls yourself, and check in only when different readings would lead to materially different work. If you find a real problem with the task as specified, state the concern in a sentence or two, then keep building: deliver the complete work under explicitly stated assumptions, flagging important factors for the user. Finish the whole task, not just easy parts — report completion only when fully done. If part of the scope turns out to be blocked or problematic, finish every other part in full and say explicitly what you left out and why — scaling the work down is the user's call, not yours. Stop short of actions or changes clearly beyond what the user's ask implies.\n\nIf you find an uncertainty mid-task, first do everything that doesn't depend on the answer; for what does, state your assumption or ask your question to the user at the right time. Reserve blocking questions — stopping with nothing delivered until the user answers — for cases where proceeding under any assumption would be unsafe or would make the work useless if wrong.\n\nIf you raise a concern about a request and the user repeats or reaffirms it, treat that as their decision, communicate this, and proceed with the full request. Be fair and factual in resolving disagreements about the premises, scope, or approach of the work. Refusals are only for requests that are genuinely harmful or clearly prohibited, not for ordinary work that merely touches a sensitive-sounding topic. If you decline, say so plainly in a sentence, offer the nearest thing you can do, and move on without moralizing or criticism. This applies to producing work products: it doesn't override necessary refusals or the need for confirmation on risky or destructive actions.",
    "# Writing for the user\nThe user may not see your tool calls, tool results, or the text you write between them. Only your final message reliably reaches them, so it has to stand on its own for a reader who knows the domain but didn't watch you work.\n\nRules for that message:\n- Lead with the answer or outcome. If something could not be verified, say so first. Keep it short by leaving things out, not by packing them in.\n- One idea per sentence, about 20 words, with a verb. Short does not mean clipped: a sentence beats a label with a colon. Start a new sentence instead of joining clauses with a semicolon.\n- No em-dashes, no parentheticals, no arrows.\n- State facts and conclusions. Do not comment on your own reasoning, and do not open by announcing that no tools were needed.\n- Do not refer to anything by a name you made up during the session. Expand uncommon acronyms the first time you use them. Say who wrote a message and what it said, not by number or label.\n- Keep code out of prose. Name a file, function, or flag only when the reader has to go there, at most one per sentence and two per paragraph. Describe the rest in words. Commands, snippets, and error text go in a fenced code block.\n- Keep numbers out of prose. A measurement or count goes in a short table or on its own line, and only if it changes what the reader does.\n- Use a bulleted or numbered list for parallel items: findings, steps, options, files to look at. One or two sentences per bullet, never a paragraph. Bold the first few words of a bullet or paragraph, never a whole sentence. A single point or a line of argument stays in prose.\n- No headers in a message under about 500 words. Above that, at most three. If the user asks for no formatting, use none.\n- Stop when the content stops. No closing offer, no restating what you did.",
    "You are operating autonomously. The user is not watching in real time and cannot answer questions mid-task, so asking 'Want me to…?' or 'Shall I…?' will block the work. For reversible actions that follow from the original request, proceed without asking. Stop only for destructive actions or genuine scope changes the user must decide. Offering follow-ups after the task is done is fine; asking permission before doing the work is not.\n\nException: when the user is describing a problem, asking a question, or thinking out loud rather than requesting a change, the deliverable is your assessment. Report your findings and stop. Don't apply a fix until they ask for one.\n\nBefore ending your turn, check your last paragraph. If it is a plan, an analysis, a question, a list of next steps, or a promise about work you have not done ('I'll…', 'let me know when…'), do that work now with tool calls. That includes retrying after errors and gathering missing information yourself. Do not stop because the context or session is long. End your turn only when the task is complete or you are blocked on input only the user can provide.\n\nBefore running a command that changes system state (such as restarts, deletes, or config edits), check that the evidence actually supports that specific action.

2	"""Score a validation-stage ranking against public discovery labels.
3	
4	``build_task.py`` publishes this module with the solver-visible task files. It
5	loads target users, validation eligibility, and validation-window events from
6	the adjacent ``data`` directory, then evaluates one ranking supplied on the
7	command line. Stage-independent mechanics come from the adjacent public
8	``ranking_evaluation.py`` module. The builder installs the same checked-in
9	module in the private judge, so public and private scoring mechanics cannot
10	drift. A relevant candidate receives grade 3 for an organic like or grade 1 for
11	an organic listen with at least 80 percent completion; a like takes precedence
12	when both events exist.
13	
14	Before scoring, the ranking must contain exactly 100 distinct eligible items
15	for every target user, with integer-valued ``uid``, ``item_id``, and ``rank``
16	columns and ranks 1 through 100 exactly once per user. Extra columns are
17	ignored. Quality is graded NDCG@10, averaged only over users who have at least
18	one eligible relevant item in the validation window.
19	
20	The evaluator prints a JSON object containing the model path and scores. It
21	does not apply the task's pass threshold; its purpose is model development and
22	selection. The private judge applies the threshold to the final submission.

Start baseline validation run and submission data prep in background

+00:36
Recorded reasoning 370 words

Having read through the whole script, I'm setting a 60-minute time box and kicking off the baseline reproduction in the background right away, copying the source to /app/solution and running it with a prepared cache so later runs skip data prep. I'm also noting the negative sampling setup: 24 uniform negatives plus 8 in-batch negatives, with propensity correction using power 0.5 and clipping.

With a 30,000-item catalog, uniform negatives are mostly trivially easy unpopular items, and since the loss is BCE with softplus and uniform negatives dominate the weighting (24 of 32), the model is likely learning something close to a popularity bias. The propensity correction on in-batch negatives actually downweights popular items, which weakens their ability to act as hard negatives and pushes the whole negative set toward near-uniform behavior -- meaning the model is probably just learning to separate positives from random items rather than discriminating against genuinely competitive items, which should show up as a popularity skew in evaluation.

The real fix for discovery-oriented NDCG@10 ranking is likely to use proper log-Q corrected sampled softmax with popularity-sampled in-batch negatives (rather than weighting), or to sample negatives from a popularity-tempered distribution like p^0.75 for harder negatives, and to share negatives across the batch so I can scale up the negative count cheaply via a single batched matmul instead of encoding separate negatives per row.

With a 60-minute budget, I'm planning to kick off the baseline run with the cached data in the background while I write the improved sampler, leaning toward sampled softmax (InfoNCE) with shared negatives drawn from the empirical popularity distribution, logQ correction, and false-negative masking using the packed positive filter.

I'm sanity-checking the scale: with B up to roughly 6400 targets per microbatch and K=1024 shared negatives, the false-negative mask gather stays around 6.5M entries, which should be manageable — I still need to verify the actual user/target counts in the data before committing to this, since baseline timing matters most right now.

With roughly 60 minutes total and only a few spent so far, I should launch the baseline validation run with caching immediately, using fewer threads per run so I can fit in a parallel cache-prep job for the submission stage alongside it.

Patch trainer with popularity log-Q shared negative sampling

+02:07
Recorded reasoning 907 words

Prep time scales at roughly 5 seconds per 1000 users, so I need to pin down the actual user count in listens before committing to a full run. The relevant items span nearly the whole popularity range, with median rank around 4257-5399 out of 30000, meaning popularity still matters but a purely popularity-driven ranker would underperform. I'm now sketching an improved negative sampling scheme that keeps the existing per-row structure to minimize code changes, starting from the current approach of 24 uniform negatives.

The current setup also uses 8 in-batch negatives with correction weights that downweight popular items -- clipped between 0.25 and 4 -- so popular hard negatives get suppressed while uniform negatives dominate 75% of the loss but stay trivially easy. I'm considering three improvements: replacing uniform negatives with popularity-sampled ones using frequency-based sampling similar to word2vec, switching to sampled softmax with logQ correction to properly debias non-uniform negatives while retaining their difficulty, and increasing the number of shared in-batch negatives across the block. Given the time constraints, I'm leaning toward prioritizing the most impactful change first.

I'm sketching out a negative sampling config with two modes -- the existing mixed uniform/in-batch baseline versus a new popularity-based logQ approach -- where each block draws shared negatives from a popularity-weighted distribution plus all unique in-batch targets, then computes masked logits with a logQ correction before running sampled-softmax cross entropy. I'm now working through the cost of the masking step, since computing known-positive masks across all rows and negative columns involves tens of millions of lookups per block, and estimating how many blocks this would run over given the user and batch sizes.

Since the microbatch size is larger than any single block, I realize I can simplify by computing the known-positive mask as a packed-bit torch tensor and doing one microbatch per block, computing the shared negative vectors just once per microbatch rather than per row.

For the loss, I'll apply the Yi et al. 2019 sampled softmax correction -- subtracting log q(y) from logits for both negatives and positives, since standard practice corrects the positive logit too, not just negatives. I'll keep things simple with a pure softmax cross-entropy loss rather than mixing in BCE, and skip any normalization on the raw 192-d dot products.

For negative sampling, I'm deciding to just draw a shared pool of 1024 negatives from a mixture distribution combining normalized popularity^α with a uniform component, rather than trying to separately correct in-batch and sampled negatives with different scale constants.

That full logits matrix costs about 180MB and roughly 5 minutes of compute across all blocks, which feels too slow, so I'm trimming the in-batch negatives down to 1024 random unique targets plus 1024 sampled negatives, cutting compute to a couple GFLOPs per block for much faster throughput. Let me also check whether the baseline's per-row negative sampling is actually cheaper by comparison.

For false-negative filtering I'm using a packed bitmask gather so each batch row can quickly check against 2048 negative candidates without expensive lookups. I also need to keep validation loss computation consistent with the same sampled-negative scheme, even though early stopping won't really matter with just one epoch.

On target weighting, I'll stick with the baseline organic-strong scheme for now and leave the discovery-graded option as a possible later experiment, since negative sampling is the higher priority. I'm now moving to implement the actual code changes in train_current_model.py, starting with config fields for negative sampling strategy, sampled negative count, in-batch shared negatives, and popularity power.

I'm building out the sampling distribution from target counts and a function to draw shared negatives with their log-probabilities, then wiring this into the scoring step so logits get corrected by subtracting logq before computing the sampled softmax loss.

For the positive item's correction, I want to use the same logQ function consistently across both positives and negatives rather than mixing conventions — settling on logQ(i) = log(K·p_α(i) + B·p_emp(i)) as the expected count of item i across the combined negative pool, applied uniformly to both pos and neg logits.

Then the loss becomes a softmax cross-entropy with corrected logits, and I need to track accuracy-style diagnostics (pair_correct, positive/negative score means) while being careful to normalize correctly against the actual negative count used in the batch.

Now I'm thinking through the invalid mask: it should exclude known positives, the target item itself, and liked items too, but building a dense mask at full batch-by-item scale is too memory-heavy (hundreds of millions of bools), so I need a cheaper scatter-based or per-row approach instead.

I realize I can use searchsorted against a sorted negatives list to find which negative columns correspond to liked or target items, then scatter a mask into the B x K negatives tensor efficiently -- avoiding the dense mask entirely. I'm also planning to mask invalid negatives with -inf logits rather than resampling, and to write a build_negative_distribution function that returns sampling probabilities and logQ by reusing the item correction counts, sampling via torch.multinomial.

For the validation path, I want draw_training_negatives and score_target_microbatches to branch based on config.negative_sampling while keeping the same tuple call signature so I don't need to touch call sites. Now I need to figure out whether to edit the file at the task path or the solution copy, since the Edit tool requires reading the file first.

I'll write a python patch script that performs exact-string replacements with assertions that each match succeeds, then run it.

Recorded reasoning 54 words

I've diagnosed the issue: 75% of negative signal comes from trivially easy uniform draws over the 30k catalog, while the inverse-propensity weighting actively suppresses hard negatives by down-weighting popular items. While the baseline trains, I'll rewrite the negative sampler to use popularity-sampled shared negatives plus in-batch negatives under a sampled-softmax loss with log-Q correction.

Smoke-test patched trainer with tiny target caps

+03:47
Recorded reasoning 45 words

While the baseline trains, I should verify the submission and validation caches saved correctly by checking base_val.log, then try a quick smoke test of my patched script using reduced target limits per user to run the full pipeline faster before committing to the real run.

Model text

Baseline is now training. Smoke-testing the patched trainer on a tiny per-user target cap (using the cached sequences) to shake out runtime errors before the full run.

Wait for smoke ranking and evaluate it

+06:01
Recorded reasoning 78 words

The smoke test completed end-to-end, and the timing suggests a full run with the baseline dataset would take around 6-7 minutes with 4 threads. I'm also noting the pair_accuracy came out at 0.096 in the smoke test, which seems low and worth investigating further.

I'll wait for the smoke test's ranking step to finish so I can confirm the pipeline is valid end-to-end before launching the full validation run, rather than starting it immediately and risking CPU oversubscription.

Launch 3-epoch variant and check first run progress

+09:35
Recorded reasoning 356 words

The baseline public score is low at 0.02128, but the new run shows a running loss around 7.3 after 250 batches, close to log(2048)=7.62 which would mean barely-better-than-random performance — concerning at first glance. But I realize the loss with logQ correction isn't directly comparable to log(K), since the corrected logits subtract log q, and q is small enough that this shifts the baseline substantially.

At initialization raw logits are near zero, so corrected logits equal -logQ(i), meaning popular items start with less-negative values and lower corrected logits, while loss ends up higher for popular positives. So I can't judge the absolute loss value against log(K) — I need to watch the trend instead: 7.24 at batch 250 versus a running average of 7.33 suggests slow but real decrease, and pair accuracy will give a clearer signal later. The new run is also running faster, 250 batches in 119s versus 240s for the baseline. I want to see if sampled softmax training is behaving well with this learning rate and optimizer setup, and while waiting a few more minutes for results, I should think about what else might need adjusting under the negative-sampling diagnosis and sketch out a second experiment to launch right after.

I'm considering several follow-up variants: more epochs since the baseline tends to early-stop, trying a pure empirical or square-root popularity power for negative sampling, or a graded target-weighting scheme. Given my CPU budget I can run two experiments in parallel, and tracking elapsed time tells me I need to start the final refit by around 09:40, leaving room for roughly three rounds of parallel six-minute runs — so I want to kick off a second experiment immediately, weighing whether to prioritize the epochs variant despite its higher time cost or go with a cheaper negative-sampling power change given the shared CPU constraint.

Since training with more epochs up to the first epoch is essentially identical to the already-running single-epoch run, I realize I can launch that variant with a checkpoint directory now and reuse the 1-epoch result from the current run rather than running it separately — that's the more efficient plan.

Baseline scored 0.02128, and the new run is already a quarter done, running about twice as fast. While it finishes, I'll kick off a parallel 3-epoch variant with early stopping, since one epoch may under-train a softmax objective.

Evaluate the new model's public score

Wait, with 250 batches covering 987,417 targets out of 1,052,953 total, that's only about 267 optimizer steps per epoch — a 64-user × 100-step block structure. That's a surprisingly small number of AdamW updates at lr 1e-3, which would explain why both the baseline and the model are scoring low.

The pair_accuracy comparison of 0.231 vs 0.755 baseline isn't actually trustworthy though, since the new negatives are harder (popular items) and the logits being compared aren't computed the same way — one's raw and the other has corrected -inf values. I'll wait for the ranking results instead, about 1.5 more minutes.

Launch safety refit, batch-16 variant, and popularity calibration

+12:54
Recorded reasoning 282 words

The gain from 0.02128 to 0.022032 is only about 3.5%, so ranking quality remains weak overall, likely limited by too few gradient steps. I'm also considering whether the logQ correction with a limited in-batch pool of 1024 targets sampled at power 0.75 is over-correcting popular items.

Since relevant discovery items sit around median popularity rank 4-5k out of 30k, popularity should actually matter, so the full sampled softmax with proper logQ correction is the right estimator. I'm also weighing reducing user_batch_size from 64 to 16 to get roughly 1070 steps per epoch instead of 267, which is more of a training-dynamics fix than a negative-sampling change but still fits within the fixed CPU budget, and I need to think through what actually drives NDCG@10 for discovery candidates excluding already-seen items.

A quick popularity-only baseline would calibrate how hard the task really is — if it scores much higher than the current 0.021, that points clearly to an underperforming model. I want to run that cheaply in the background while the 3-epoch run continues, since that run will also reveal whether extra training epochs actually improve NDCG alongside validation loss. I'm also considering whether mixing in some uniform negative draws alongside the power-0.75 sampling would help tail-item coverage, though time is tight with about 42 minutes left to finalize a plan.

My plan: run the popularity calibration, then launch a user_batch_size=16 variant in parallel with the 3-epoch run using split thread allocations, evaluate both around 09:24, and immediately kick off a safety submission refit now with the current config so a valid submission exists well before the deadline regardless of what the comparison shows — accepting some CPU oversubscription as a worthwhile tradeoff.

Recorded reasoning 42 words

The new config edges out the baseline (0.022032 vs 0.02128). I'm now running three things in parallel: a safety refit to lock in a valid submission, a smaller-batch variant since ~267 steps/epoch likely under-trains, and a popularity-only baseline to gauge remaining headroom.

Launch batch-16 three-epoch validation and submission runs

+17:13
Recorded reasoning 177 words

Epoch 2's validation loss dropped meaningfully from 6.94 to 6.69, and bs16's batch loss at 500 batches is already lower than bs64's at the same point, both pointing toward more optimizer steps being beneficial. I'm leaning toward bs16 with 2-3 epochs as the best config, and checking the clock at 09:20 to estimate timing given roughly 6.5 minutes per epoch under current contention.

Given the 8-core limit and three jobs already running (e3, bs16, sub_v1), I'm deciding to launch two more runs in parallel rather than wait sequentially: a validation run tracking per-epoch loss, and a submission refit using the same internal validation-based epoch selection. This saves time since the submission logic is self-contained and doesn't depend on the hidden test, though there's a risk the selected epoch underperforms on public NDCG compared to the simpler bs64 one-epoch run.

CPU oversubscription from running everything at once will slow throughput for a few minutes, but I decide it's worth it since time matters more right now — I'll also draft the README while waiting for things to finish.

Validation loss dropped from 6.94 to 6.69 by epoch 2, and batch-16 is outperforming batch-64, confirming more optimizer steps help. I'll now launch the combined config (batch 16, up to 3 epochs with early stopping) for both validation and final submission refit in parallel, keeping the earlier safety refit as a fallback.

# "Made for You" two-tower: negative-sampling improvement

## Diagnosis

The production trainer (`train_current_model.py`) is a GRU user tower and an
MLP item tower trained with sample-weighted BCE at every timestep. Its
negative set per positive is **24 uniform catalog draws + 8 in-batch unique
targets**, with the in-batch items re-weighted by an inverse-propensity factor
`((1/N) / p_item)^0.5` clipped to `[0.25, 4]`.

Two problems follow from that design:

1. **75% of the negative signal is trivially easy.** A uniform draw over the
   30,000-track catalog almost always lands in the long tail (median catalog
   track has ~350 positive listens vs. ~26,000 for the head). The model
   separates positives from these negatives almost immediately and gets little
   gradient about *which popular or mid-popular track* a listener will choose,
   which is exactly what the discovery NDCG@10 among never-encountered
   candidates asks.
2. **The in-batch correction suppresses the only hard negatives.** The
   propensity weight is applied as a loss multiplier, so popular in-batch items
   (the hard ones) are down-weighted to 0.25 and rare ones up-weighted to 4.
   Instead of removing sampling bias, this makes the 8 in-batch negatives
   behave like additional uniform draws.

The baseline's internal diagnostics confirm this: pair accuracy against its own
negatives reaches 0.755 after ~270 optimizer steps while public discovery
quality stays at 0.0213 NDCG@10, barely twice a popularity-only ranking
(0.0107).

## Change

`--negative-sampling popularity-logq` (new default):

- One **shared negative pool per block** instead of 32 per-row negatives:
  1,024 draws from the training-target popularity distribution tempered as
  `count^0.75`, plus up to 1,024 unique in-batch targets.
- **Sampled softmax with log-Q correction**: every candidate logit (positive
  and negatives) is shifted by `-log(expected draw intensity)` of that item in
  the pool, so the objective is an unbiased estimate of the full-catalog
  softmax while the negatives are mostly hard, popular tracks.
- The existing false-negative filter is kept: the target itself, every known
  training-history positive of the user (packed bitset), and active likes are
  masked to `-inf` in the pool rather than resampled.
- Smaller user batches (`--user-batch-size 16`) and up to three epochs with the
  existing chronological validation-loss early stopping, because the shared
  pool makes each step ~2x cheaper and one epoch of 64-user batches is only
  ~270 optimizer steps.

The serving contract is unchanged: one user vector from history, precomputed
item vectors, raw dot-product scoring, no user-ID table. The legacy objective
remains available via `--negative-sampling mixed-uniform-inbatch`.

List running trainer processes with CPU usage

+20:44
Recorded reasoning 101 words

I'm puzzled by the bs16 log timing — it hit batch 500 at 190s after a 09:16:00 start plus cache loading, putting it around 09:19:30, but it's now 09:23:26 with no new entries, so something's been stalling for roughly four minutes.

Trying to parse the log output order, it looks like sub_v1 hasn't printed a batch count yet (still under 250 batches with heavy thread contention), e3 is mid-epoch-3 below the 250-batch threshold, and sub_bs16_e3 is further along at 750 batches in epoch 1. I should run ps to confirm all the processes are actually alive and check their CPU usage.

Only two processes are still running — the others must have died, possibly from OOM given the memory load across processes. I should check their log tails for errors to confirm.

Model text

Only the two newest runs are alive. The 3-epoch, batch-16, and safety-submission runs have vanished, so I need to check their logs for an error or an out-of-memory kill.

Write popularity fallback submission and launch resumed safety refit

+21:03
Recorded reasoning 160 words

Those three processes died silently with no traceback, which points to the OOM killer rather than a code error — too many concurrent runs overloaded memory. I'm noting to cap concurrency at around 3 processes going forward, and with about 34 minutes left, I'm now tracking the bs16_e3 validation and submission runs still in progress.

I'm estimating the epoch timing: roughly 250s per epoch plus ~30s validation, so 3 epochs should finish around 09:35-09:37 with about 20 minutes of buffer left. Since I don't have a valid submission yet, I'm weighing options — resuming from the validation-stage checkpoint and running one more epoch on submission-stage data for a fast, memory-safe fallback, versus writing a cheap guaranteed-valid submission as backup.

I'll generate that cheap popularity-only ranking right away to guarantee something survives the deadline, then kick off the resume-based submission job in parallel with two threads, which should produce a reasonably good result in 6-7 minutes while staying within memory limits.

Recorded reasoning 49 words

The three runs were killed by the OOM killer when I launched two more (five trainers at ~2.6GB each overloaded memory), so I'll cap concurrency at three going forward. Now writing a guaranteed-valid popularity submission as a safety net, plus a cheap refit resuming from the saved epoch-2 checkpoint.

Add unit test and submission validator, run both

Checking in on progress: the fallback submission file is valid, and the bs16_e3 run is nearing the end of epoch 1 with roughly 3 epochs to go, putting completion around 09:35-09:37. I'm also tracking the sub_resume_e3 run's epoch status.

With the deadline around 09:58-10:00, I'm fine on time, so my plan is: wait for runs to finish, validate and promote whichever submission scores best, finalize the README, and use the downtime to write a quick unit test for the negative sampler plus a small validation helper script to check submission structure and eligibility.

Model text

While the three runs proceed, I'll add a quick unit test for the new sampler and masking logic, and a submission validator that mirrors the verifier's structural checks.

Resume validation batch-16 run and install resumed submission

+27:53
Recorded reasoning 273 words

The bs16_e3 validation run (pid 8700) got killed again around epoch 2, batch ~250, with 6GB used and 9GB available at the time — possibly an OOM event tied to the ranking phase or a checkpoint save spike, though I can't confirm via dmesg.

Actually, checking the log tail shows no traceback, just the last recorded batch — so it was killed by signal, likely OOM, with multiple processes competing for the ~15GB available at 09:26-09:27. With 27 minutes left at 09:31, I'm prioritizing: get sub_resume_e3.parquet ranked and submitted once it finishes (~1 min), and watch the submission bs16_e3 run (pid 8702) which is in epoch 3 and should finish around 09:35-09:36 with better validation loss (5.85 vs 6.35) than the resume model, though I lack public NDCG to confirm — I do have a checkpoint from epoch 1 of the validation stage as a fallback.

Rather than let that checkpoint go unused, I could resume training it for one more epoch (~4 min given lighter contention now) plus validation and ranking, landing around 09:37-09:38 and giving me a public NDCG for bs16 at epoch 2 to compare against 0.02203 and decide whether to switch submissions to sub_bs16_e3.parquet. Since there's no rank-only option and start_epoch must be less than epochs, resuming with --epochs 2 is simpler than hacking in a new code path, and it has the added benefit of surfacing the epoch-2 public score for better decision-making.

I'll launch with 3 threads now — memory should be tight (~3.4+2.2+2.6GB, similar to the config that got killed before), but the resume run will finish ranking quickly and free up memory. Going for it.

The validation-stage batch-16 run was killed again (likely OOM), but its epoch-1 checkpoint survived, while the submission-stage batch-16 run is still alive and finishing its last epoch. I'll resume validation from that checkpoint for one more epoch to get a public score, then install the submission once its ranking comes in.

The bs16_e3 submission finished training with epoch 3 val loss at 5.48, still improving but out of time for more epochs — I'm running the ranking now. I'll wait about 75 seconds, then validate sub_bs16_e3.parquet and evaluate new_val_bs16_e2.parquet, copying over the new submission if the score beats 0.02203.

Install final submission, finish README, clean large intermediates

Comparing the models, bs16 e2 scores 0.023606, beating both bs64 e1 and the baseline by nearly 11%. The bs16 three-epoch run with val loss 5.48 looks like the strongest candidate, still improving at epoch 3, so I'll install that parquet as the final submission and move on to finalizing the README with about 20 minutes left on the clock.

A fourth epoch isn't worth chasing since there's no checkpoint saved to resume from, and the validation protocol already confirmed epoch 3 improved internal loss. I'll stop experimenting and focus on cleanup: deleting the ~1GB of caches and checkpoints under work while keeping logs and small ranking files, removing smoke test files, and leaving the baseline directory in place for reference.

The batch-16, two-epoch model hits 0.023606 on the public backtest, an 11% improvement over the 0.02128 baseline. I'll install the matching refit (batch 16, three epochs on train+val) as the final submission and finalize the README.

Align script defaults with final config and re-verify

+35:50
Recorded reasoning 96 words

Everything's delivered, so I'm doing a final sanity check: the trainer's defaults look fine since README commands pass flags explicitly, test imports work, and the submission is a regular file not a symlink. I'm considering whether to update the Config defaults to batch 16/epochs 3 so the script reproduces results without needing explicit flags.

Since it's a low-risk two-line edit, I'll go ahead and set user_batch_size to 16 and epochs to 3, then re-run the unit test and syntax check, and update the README commands to match even though the flags make it harmless either way.

Model text

Final check: I'll make the shipped script's defaults match the submitted configuration so a bare invocation reproduces the artifact, then re-run the unit test.

Model text

Done. The final submission is installed and validated, and the improved trainer, tests, and README are in place under /app/solution/.

Diagnosis. The production objective draws 24 uniform negatives plus 8 in-batch negatives per positive under BCE. Uniform draws over a 30k catalog are almost all trivially easy tail tracks, and the inverse-propensity weight on the in-batch items down-weights popular ones to 0.25, which suppresses the only hard negatives. The model reaches 0.755 pair accuracy against its own negatives yet barely doubles a popularity-only ranking on the discovery metric.

Change. A new default --negative-sampling popularity-logq replaces the per-row negatives with one shared pool per block: 1,024 draws from the training-target popularity tempered as count^0.75 plus up to 1,024 unique in-batch targets, scored under a sampled softmax with log-Q correction applied to positives and negatives. Known-history positives, the target, and active likes are masked to minus infinity. The shared pool makes each step about twice as cheap, so the final config also uses 16-user batches and up to three epochs with the existing chronological early stopping. Serving contract, data protocol, and evaluation boundary are untouched.

Submission. submission.parquet comes from the batch-16 refit on train plus val, where internal validation loss kept improving through epoch 3 (7.10 to 5.85 to 5.48) and epoch 3 was selected. It passes the structural and eligibility checks in validate_submission.py.

Caveats. Three experiment processes were killed by the out-of-memory killer when I ran five trainers concurrently. The validation-stage three-epoch run was among them, so the public score for the shipped config is from a two-epoch resume and is a lower bound. The internal validation loss was still falling at epoch 3, so more epochs are the obvious next lever if more CPU time is available.
