DiffusionGS: Generative Search with Query Conditioned Diffusion in Kuaishou

摘要

Personalized search ranking systems are critical for driving engagement and revenue in modern e-commerce platforms. Existing methods primarily model users' broad interests from historical behaviors but often fail to explicitly align these with real-time intent expressed in user queries. In this paper, we propose DiffusionGS, a scalable generative framework that treats user queries as explicit intent anchors to extract user interests from long-term, noisy behavior histories. Specifically, we formulate interest extraction as a conditional denoising task, where the user's query guides a conditional diffusion process to produce a robust, user intent-aware representation from their behavioral sequence. A User-aware Denoising Layer (UDL) further refines attention distribution using user-specific profiles. By reframing queries as intent priors and leveraging diffusion-based denoising, our method provides a powerful mechanism for capturing dynamic user interest shifts. Extensive offline and online experiments demonstrate the superiority of DiffusionGS over state-of-the-art methods.
