TaoSR1: The Thinking Model for E-commerce Relevance Search

arXiv — cs.CLFriday, December 5, 2025 at 5:00:00 AM
  • The TaoSR1 framework has been introduced to enhance query-product relevance prediction in e-commerce search, addressing limitations of existing BERT-based models by incorporating Large Language Models (LLMs) and a structured Chain-of-Thought (CoT) approach. The framework consists of three stages: Supervised Fine-Tuning, offline sampling with Direct Preference Optimization, and dynamic sampling to reduce hallucination errors.
  • This development is significant as it directly improves the accuracy and efficiency of e-commerce search engines, which are crucial for user satisfaction and sales performance. By leveraging advanced reasoning capabilities, TaoSR1 aims to provide more relevant search results, thereby enhancing the overall shopping experience.
  • The introduction of TaoSR1 reflects a broader trend in AI towards integrating complex reasoning into LLMs, as seen in various frameworks that enhance understanding and decision-making processes. This shift is critical in addressing challenges such as choice-supportive bias and improving sequential recommendations, indicating a growing recognition of the need for sophisticated reasoning in AI applications.

On GRPO Collapse in Search-R1: The Lazy Likelihood-Displacement Death Spiral
PositiveArtificial Intelligence
The recent study on Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) in Search-R1 highlights a significant issue known as Lazy Likelihood Displacement (LLD), which leads to a collapse in training effectiveness. This phenomenon results in a self-reinforcing cycle of declining response quality, characterized by low-confidence outputs and inflated gradients. The research empirically demonstrates this collapse across various models engaged in search-integrated question answering tasks.
