I have a PhD position in Large Language Models for Recommendation, funded by the NorwAI research-based innovation center.
The proposed PhD project aims to advance the field of personalized recommender systems by harnessing the natural language reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs). The research will focus on three key areas:
- developing methods to construct natural language user interest profiles that enhance transparency and provide user control over recommendations;
- designing conversational recommendation systems that utilize LLMs to effectively elicit user preferences and generate tailored responses, including both recommendations and explanations; and
- developing approaches to mitigate limitations of LLMs through retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) and tool use.
Overall, this project seeks to push the boundaries of how LLMs can be applied to create more intuitive, responsive, and user-centered recommendation systems.
