arXiv:2606. 27634v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Small Language Models (SLMs) are increasingly being considered for deployment on edge devices such as laptops, enabling private, low-latency, and locally personalized applications.
arXiv:2601. 09974v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Personalizing Large Language Models typically relies on static retrieval or one-time adaptation, assuming user preferences remain invariant over time.
arXiv:2603. 12658v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Continual learning (CL) has emerged as a pivotal paradigm to enable large language models (LLMs) to dynamically adapt to evolving knowledge and sequential tasks while mitigating catastrophic forgetting, a critical limitation of the static pre-training paradigm inherent to modern LLMs.
arXiv:2605. 05285v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) often suffer from catastrophic forgetting in continual learning: after learning new tasks sequentially, they perform worse on earlier tasks.
arXiv:2607. 24845v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have been applied to sequential recommendation by formulating it as a natural language task.
The paper introduces EoupCT, a framework that estimates and orthogonalizes unknown pre‑training gradients to mitigate catastrophic forgetting during continual fine‑tuning of large language models. It generates pseudo data most susceptible to forgetting using a learnable soft prompt with Gumbel‑Softmax, then jointly optimizes model parameters and the prompt via a first‑order Pareto optimizer to enforce orthogonality between new task updates and the estimated gradients. Experiments on multiple LLMs show that EoupCT preserves both task‑specific performance and the models’ inherent general‑purpose knowledge.

arXiv:2607. 26455v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in knowledge acquisition and reasoning, yet their ability to retain previously acquired knowledge under repeated updates remains insufficiently understood.
arXiv:2606. 00400v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Continual instruction tuning updates a language model through a sequence of new domains, yet each update can progressively erode previously learned capabilities and alignment behavior.
arXiv:2609.06986v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language models may need to internalize information that arrives over time and retain it through many subsequent updates. To study this challenge, we i...

arXiv:2602. 01146v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Conversational assistants are increasingly integrating long-term memory with large language models (LLMs).
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong capabilities in knowledge acquisition and reasoning, yet their ability to retain previously acquired knowledge under repeated updates remains insufficiently understood. Existing evaluation paradigms primarily focus on single-step reasoning or static knowledge editing, which fail to capture the temporal dynamics of knowledge retention and degradation during continual model modification.
