SRBench: A Comprehensive Benchmark for Sequential Recommendation with Large Language Models

arXiv:2604.09553v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM development has aroused great interest in Sequential Recommendation (SR) applications. However, comprehensive evaluation of SR models remains lacking due to the limitations of the existing benchmarks: 1) an overemphasis on accuracy, ignoring other real-world demands (e.g., fairness); 2) existing datasets fail to unleash LLMs' potential, leading to unfair comparison between Neural-Network-based SR (NN-SR) models and LLM-based SR (LLM-SR) model
