Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Context selection (CS-EFE, learned binary subset of context) instead of conditioning on all context elements | exponential family embeddings · MovieLens-100K, eBird-PA, Market-Basket | test log-likelihood | Helped |
| Context selection with β=20 (expected context size control) | exponential family embeddings · MovieLens-100K | test log-likelihood: -1.06 to -1.00 (K=10); -1.06 to -0.97 (K=50) | Helped |
| Context selection, larger improvement on eBird-PA | exponential family embeddings · eBird-PA | test log-likelihood: -1.74 to about -1.33/-1.34 at best β | Helped |
| Context selection with β=2 to 10 on Market-Basket | exponential family embeddings · Market-Basket | test log-likelihood: -0.632 to -0.623 (K=50) | Helped |
| Context selection (CS-EFE, β=20) on MovieLens embeddings | embedding quality vs genre similarity · MovieLens-100K | Spearman's correlation with genre similarity and mean-sim@5: 0.066 to 0.108 (Spearman); 0.272 to 0.328 (mean-sim@5) | Helped |
| Larger prior β (fewer expected selected context elements, approaching full EFE) (ablation) | CS-EFE · MovieLens-100K | test log-likelihood | Mixed |
