Recall Module in Recommendation Systems: Multi-Path Retrieval and Optimization

The recall module in recommendation systems retrieves thousands of items from massive pools using parallel non-personalized and personalized paths—such as hot-item, content-based, behavior-based, and deep-model recall—prioritizing coverage and low latency while addressing challenges like hard-negative sampling, selection bias, objective alignment, and channel competition to feed downstream ranking.
