Abstract
YouTube represents one of the largest scale and most sophisticated industrial recommendation systems in existence. In this paper, we describe the system at a high level and focus on the dramatic performance improvements brought by deep learning. The paper is split according to the classic two-stage information retrieval dichotomy: first, we detail a deep candidate generation model and then describe a separate deep ranking model. We also provide practical lessons and insights derived from designing, iterating and maintaining a massive recommendation system with enormous user-facing impact.

Cocktail: A Multidimensional Optimization for Model Serving in Cloud

TL;DR: Cocktail is a cost effective ensembling-based model serving framework that combines a dynamic model selection framework, which reduces the number of models in the ensemble, while satisfying the accuracy and latency requirements, and an adaptive resource management framework that employs a distributed proactive autoscaling policy to allocate resources for the models.

Meta-Graph Based Attention-Aware Recommendation over Heterogeneous Information Networks

TL;DR: A Meta-Graph based Attention-aware Recommendation (MGAR) over HINs, which utilizes rich meta-graph based latent features to guide the heterogeneous information fusion recommendation and proposes an attention-based feature enhancement model which enables useful features and useless features contribute differently to the prediction, thus improves the performance of the recommendation.
