摘要

Recommender systems’ performance hinges on dataset quality, but implicit feedback is pervaded by noise that degrades accuracy. Existing denoising methods either rely on unavailable prior knowledge or oversimplify noise via fixed rules. We propose MADR, an enhanced method fusing multi-head attention and adaptive weighting that refines the reweighting paradigm. It integrates cross-epoch loss patterns and user–item semantics to estimate noise probabilities, dynamically adjusts sample weights, and adopts a popularity-sensitive negative sampling strategy to mitigate bias. Experiments on three datasets show that MADR achieves the best or competitive performance on most key metrics, with an average improvement of 2.49% over state-of-the-art methods. Leveraging HPC capabilities enables its scalable deployment on billion-scale datasets, bridging denoising effectiveness and real-world applicability.
