| contents | Multimedia systems underpin modern digital interactions, facilitating seamless integration and optimization of resources across diverse multimedia applications. To meet growing personalization demands, multimedia systems must efficiently manage competing resource needs, adaptive content, and user-specific data handling. This paper introduces Generative Flow Networks (GFlowNets, GFNs) as a brave new framework for enabling personalized multimedia systems. By integrating multi-candidate generative modeling with flow-based principles, GFlowNets offer a scalable and flexible solution for enhancing user-specific multimedia experiences. To illustrate the effectiveness of GFlowNets, we focus on short video feeds, a multimedia application characterized by high personalization demands and significant resource constraints, as a case study. Our proposed GFlowNet-based personalized feeds algorithm demonstrates superior performance compared to traditional rule-based and reinforcement learning methods across critical metrics, including video quality, resource utilization efficiency, and delivery cost. Moreover, we propose a unified GFlowNet-based framework generalizable to other multimedia systems, highlighting its adaptability and wide-ranging applicability. These findings underscore the potential of GFlowNets to advance personalized multimedia systems by addressing complex optimization challenges and supporting sophisticated multimedia application scenarios. |
