contents Recommender systems are ubiquitous in on-line services to drive businesses. And many sequential recommender models were deployed in these systems to enhance personalization. The approach of using the transformer decoder as the sequential recommender was proposed years ago and is still a strong baseline in recent works. But this kind of sequential recommender model did not scale up well, compared to language models. Quite some details in the classical self-attentive sequential recommender model could be revisited, and some new experiments may lead to new findings, without changing the general model structure which was the focus of many previous works. In this paper, we show the details and propose new experiment methodologies for future research on sequential recommendation, in hope to motivate further exploration to new findings in this area.
