MOON3.0: Reasoning-aware Multimodal Representation Learning for E-commerce Product Understanding

arXiv:2604.00513v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: With the rapid growth of e-commerce, exploring general representations rather than task-specific ones has attracted increasing attention. Although recent multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have driven significant progress in product understanding, they are typically employed as feature extractors that implicitly encode product information into global embeddings, thereby limiting their ability to capture fine-grained attributes. Therefore, we argue that leveraging the reasoning capabilities of MLLMs to explicitly model fine-grained product attributes holds significant potential. Nevertheless, achieving this goal remains non-trivial due to several key challenges: (i) long-context reasoning tends to dilute the model's attention to salient information in the raw input; (ii) supervised fine-tuning (SFT) primarily encourages rigid imitation, limiting the exploration of effective reasoning strategies; and (iii) fine-grained details are progressively attenuated during forward propagation. To address these issues, we propose MOON3.0, the first reasoning-aware MLLM-based model for product representation learning. Our method (1) employs a multi-head modality fusion module to adaptively integrate raw signals; (2) incorporates a joint contrastive and reinforcement learning framework to autonomously explore more effective reasoning strategies; and (3) introduces a fine-grained residual enhancement module to progressively preserve local details throughout the network. Additionally, we release a large-scale multimodal e-commerce benchmark MBE3.0. Experimentally, our model demonstrates state-of-the-art zero-shot performance across various downstream tasks on both our benchmark and public datasets.

arXiv:2509.15927v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Auto-bidding is a critical tool for advertisers to improve advertising performance. Recent progress has demonstrated that AI-Generated Bidding (AIGB), which learns a conditional generative planner from offline data, achieves superior performance compared to typical offline reinforcement learning (RL)-based auto-bidding methods. However, existing AIGB methods still face a performance bottleneck due to their inherent inability to explore beyond the static dataset with feedback. To address this, we propose \textbf{AIGB-Pearl} (\emph{\textbf{P}lanning with \textbf{E}valu\textbf{A}tor via \textbf{RL}}), a novel method that integrates generative planning and policy optimization. The core of AIGB-Pearl lies in constructing a trajectory evaluator to assess the quality of generated scores and designing a provably sound KL-Lipschitz-constrained score-maximization scheme to ensure safe and efficient exploration beyond the offline dataset. A practical algorithm that incorporates the synchronous coupling technique is further developed to ensure the model regularity required by the proposed scheme. Extensive experiments on both simulated and real-world advertising systems demonstrate the state-of-the-art performance of our approach.

RAIR: A Rule-Aware Benchmark Uniting Challenging Long-Tail and Visual Salience Subset for E-commerce Relevance Assessment

24 February 2026 at 13:00
arXiv:2512.24943v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Search relevance plays a central role in web e-commerce. While large language models (LLMs) have shown significant results on relevance task, existing benchmarks lack sufficient complexity for comprehensive model assessment, resulting in an absence of standardized relevance evaluation metrics across the industry. To address this limitation, we propose Rule-Aware benchmark with Image for Relevance assessment(RAIR), a Chinese dataset derived from real-world scenarios. RAIR established a standardized framework for relevance assessment and provides a set of universal rules, which forms the foundation for standardized evaluation. Additionally, RAIR analyzes essential capabilities required for current relevance models and introduces a comprehensive dataset consists of three subset: (1) a general subset with industry-balanced sampling to evaluate fundamental model competencies; (2) a long-tail hard subset focus on challenging cases to assess performance limits; (3) a visual salience subset for evaluating multimodal understanding capabilities. We conducted experiments on RAIR using 14 open and closed-source models. The results demonstrate that RAIR presents sufficient challenges even for GPT-5, which achieved the best performance. RAIR data are now available, serving as an industry benchmark for relevance assessment while providing new insights into general LLM and Visual Language Model(VLM) evaluation.
