Abstract
This paper studies the relevance modeling problem by integrating world knowledge stored in the parameters of LLMs with specialized domain knowledge represented by user behavior data for achieving promising performance. The novel framework ProRBP is proposed, which innovatively develops user-driven behavior neighbor retrieval module to learn domain-specific knowledge in time and introduces progressive prompting and aggregation module for considering diverse aspects of the relevance and prediction stability. We explore an industrial implementation to deploy LLMs to handle full-scale search traffics of Alipay with acceptable cost and latency. The comprehensive experiments on real-world industry data and online A/B testing validate the superiority of our proposal and the effectiveness of its main modules.- Anthology ID:
