Method, system, and medium for generating recommendations utilizing an edge-computing-based asynchronous coagent network

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that generate digital item recommendations for client devices utilizing coagent recommendation models of a distributed asynchronous coagent network. Indeed, in one or more embodiments, the disclosed systems operate on an edge computing device of a distributed asynchronous coagent network. In some cases, the disclosed systems utilize recommendation scores generated at the edge computing device via local coagents and additional recommendation scores received from other coagents of other edge computing devices to generate a digital item recommendation. In some cases, the disclosed systems progressively refines the recommendation as delayed scores from the other coagents are received. Further, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems update parameters of the local coagents using local policy gradients determined from responses to the generated recommendations.
