Synthetic Interaction Data for Scalable Personalization in Large Language Models

arXiv:2602. 12394v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Personalized prompting offers large opportunities for deploying large language models (LLMs) to diverse users, yet existing prompt optimization methods primarily focus on task-level optimization while largely overlooking user-specific preferences and latent constraints of individual users.

Learning Dynamic User Personas from Implicit Interaction Streams via Iterative Refinement

arXiv:2607. 26473v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalizing large language models (LLMs) to individual users is essential for improving user experience, yet existing approaches typically rely on explicit preference supervision such as pairwise comparisons or demographic attributes, limiting their applicability in natural interaction settings.

Learning What to Share and What to Personalize: Hierarchical Strategy Co-Evolution for Agent Memory

The paper introduces HiPS, a hierarchical strategy co‑evolution framework for memory‑augmented agents that separates memory management into a globally shared foundation and a user‑specific adaptive tier. HiPS uses a Universal Strategy to capture shared principles from cross‑persona trajectories, Persona Delta Distillation to create tailored rules for users deviating from general patterns, and Cross‑Level Rule Flow to dynamically adjust the boundary between global and personal rules. Experiments show that this approach consistently outperforms existing memory‑augmented baselines.

QUMem: Personalized Memory for Query-Conditioned User-State Inference in LLM Agents

arXiv:2608. 16168v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly use external memory systems to support personalization by drawing on long and evolving interaction histories, in which user preferences may be distributed across time, change with context, and conflict with earlier evidence.

Learning Dynamic User Personas from Implicit Interaction Streams via Iterative Refinement

Personalizing large language models (LLMs) to individual users is essential for improving user experience, yet existing approaches typically rely on explicit preference supervision such as pairwise comparisons or demographic attributes, limiting their applicability in natural interaction settings. We propose IRIS, a framework that learns dynamic user personas directly from implicit interaction streams by extracting behavioral signals from everyday conversations and iteratively refining persona representations through a prediction-driven closed loop without requiring explicit feedback.
