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.

PlanPO introduces a group planning-aware policy optimization method for multi-turn agentic large language models, addressing the issue of advantage collapse caused by treating all successful trajectories equally. By incorporating coarse-to-fine advantage signals that reflect differences in trajectory and turn lengths, PlanPO encourages agents to learn generalizable planning and generation behaviors. Experiments show a 27.2% average improvement over GRPO on benchmarks such as ALFWorld, WebShop, and SciWorld, with minimal extra training cost.

CHAI for LLMs is a framework that improves large language models’ performance on code‑mixed translation tasks by using LLMs as annotators to create preference data, applying reinforcement learning from AI feedback, incorporating LLM‑generated domain knowledge for iterative refinement, and evaluating on real‑world datasets. The approach yields a 68.45% average win rate over state‑of‑the‑art open‑source models in human‑adjudicated tests. It demonstrates a scalable method to enhance code‑mixed language understanding in open‑source LLMs.

MiCRo is a two‑stage framework that improves personalized preference learning for large language models. It first uses a context‑aware mixture model to capture diverse human preferences from large binary preference datasets, then applies an online routing strategy to dynamically adjust mixture weights based on context, reducing ambiguity. Experiments on multiple datasets show that MiCRo captures diverse preferences and enhances downstream personalization.

arXiv:2607. 19739v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although large language models (LLMs) have recently gained traction in recommender systems due to their strong reasoning capabilities and extensive world knowledge, previous LLM-based agents suffer from hallucination and context-length limitations, and thus are not suitable for full-ranking recommendation tasks.

arXiv:2602. 11351v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Proactive large language model (LLM) agents aim to actively plan, query, and interact over multiple turns, enabling efficient task completion beyond passive instruction following and making them essential for real-world, user-centric applications.

Human choice behavior, including route choice, exhibits systematic behavioral biases that deviate from the assumptions of full rationality. Cumulative prospect theory (CPT) has been widely recognized as an effective framework for characterizing such behavioral patterns.
