TL;DR
This work tackles private, context-aware content recommendation on social media by avoiding raw data sharing through federated learning. It trains a global GPT-based system using locally stored user data, enabling personalized filtering and real-time querying. Theoretical contributions include a federated optimization objective $\mathcal{L}(\mathbf{w}) = \sum_{k=1}^{K} \frac{n_k}{N} \mathcal{L}_k(\mathbf{w}; \mathcal{D}_k)$ with local updates and a convergence result under $0<\eta<2/L$, and practically, persona-driven content scoring, social circle analysis, smart video retrieval via a Knowledge Graph in Neo4j, and an adaptive feedback loop for continual improvement. The work demonstrates privacy-preserving, scalable personalization with potential impact on engagement and user trust in digital platforms.
Abstract
Our study presents a multifaceted approach to enhancing user interaction and content relevance in social media platforms through a federated learning framework. We introduce personalized LLM Federated Learning and Context-based Social Media models. In our framework, multiple client entities receive a foundational GPT model, which is fine-tuned using locally collected social media data while ensuring data privacy through federated aggregation. Key modules focus on categorizing user-generated content, computing user persona scores, and identifying relevant posts from friends networks. By integrating a sophisticated social engagement quantification method with matrix factorization techniques, our system delivers real-time personalized content suggestions tailored to individual preferences. Furthermore, an adaptive feedback loop, alongside a robust readability scoring algorithm, significantly enhances the quality and relevance of the content presented to users. This comprehensive solution not only addresses the challenges of content filtering and recommendation but also fosters a more engaging social media experience while safeguarding user privacy, setting a new standard for personalized interactions in digital platforms.
