Outline

To improve the performance and explainability of conversational recommender systems (CRS), we propose the COMPASS framework, which combines LLM and knowledge graphs (KGs). COMPASS pre-trains graph entity captioning to bridge the gap between KG information and natural language, and optimizes user preference inference through knowledge-based command fine-tuning. This allows COMPASS to generate interpretable user preferences and integrate them into existing CRS models, improving recommendation performance and explainability.

Takeaways, Limitations

Takeaways:
A novel framework that integrates LLM and KG to improve the explainability and performance of CRS.
Bridging the Gap Between KG and Natural Language with Graph Entity Captioning Pretraining
Enhancing LLM's ability to infer user preferences through knowledge-based command fine-tuning.
Generate interpretable user preferences that can be easily integrated into existing CRS models.
Demonstrating improved performance of various CRS models on benchmark datasets.
Limitations:
Only experimental results for specific datasets and models are presented, requiring further review of generalizability.
Computational cost and training time need to be considered.
May exhibit performance dependent on KG quality
