Abstract

Personalized product recommendation systems have become central to retail media platforms, yet conventional algorithms struggle with dynamic and real-time consumer behaviors. This study proposes an agentic AI architecture that leverages real-time behavioral data to optimize personalized recommendations at scale. By integrating reinforcement learning agents with modular decision nodes, the system continuously adapts to user interactions, preferences, and temporal patterns. Results from simulated retail datasets demonstrate an improvement in click-through rate (CTR) by 17.4% and basket size by 11.2% over traditional recommendation engines. This architecture advances current recommender systems through adaptability, personalization, and computational efficiency.
