arXiv:2608. 05813v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalizing language models (LMs) to individual user preferences is essential for aligning responses with diverse goals and backgrounds.
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.
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 investigates how to reduce the per-user adaptation burden in personalized large language models by separating reusable personalization capacity from user-specific adjustments. Through empirical studies, it shows that shared low‑rank factors can capture much of the cross‑user structure, while a tiny user code suffices for individual correction. The proposed LINEUP framework achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on six personalized tasks while using only eight scalars per user compared to millions of private‑LoRA parameters.
LLMAR is a tuning‑free recommendation framework designed for sparse, text‑rich industrial B2B domains. It transforms user behavioral history into structured semantic motives using LLM inference, employs a reflection loop to self‑correct hallucinations, and operates cost‑effectively with asynchronous batch processing. Experiments on MovieLens‑1M, Amazon Prime Pantry, and a construction risk dataset show LLMAR surpasses state‑of‑the‑art learning models, achieving up to a 54.6% nDCG@10 improvement while keeping inference costs around $1 per 1,000 users.
COPE (Continual Optimization with Personalized embedding and self-Evaluation) is a new framework that continually personalizes large language models using learnable user embeddings and self‑evaluation to generate proxy rewards. It integrates preference capture, self‑evaluation calibration, and personalized response optimization into a single update step, allowing continuous model updates even when explicit user feedback is sparse. Experiments demonstrate that COPE outperforms both training‑free and training‑based baselines, remains complementary to Retrieval‑Augmented Prompting, and shows reliable self‑evaluation, meaningful preference patterns, stable general capabilities, and robustness to shifting preferences and alternative evaluators.

arXiv:2602. 06470v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Scaling training data and model parameters has long driven progress in large language models (LLMs), but this paradigm is increasingly constrained by the scarcity of high-quality data and diminishing returns from rising computational costs.

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.
The paper introduces TAP-PER, a prefix‑based framework that learns compact user representations for large language model personalization. By encoding user preferences into lightweight prefix embeddings and incorporating temporal signals, TAP‑PER avoids the need for heavy per‑user adapters or prompt‑serialized histories. Experiments on six LaMP tasks show that TAP‑PER outperforms both prompt‑based and model‑based baselines while using far fewer per‑user parameters, enabling scalable personalization at large user scales.
PLUME is a lightweight framework for personalizing large language models by learning a shared task-specific subspace from aggregated user data and then training only a small square matrix for each user within that subspace. The approach introduces cross-layer shared parameters and rank‑1 residual terms to reduce redundancy while preserving expressiveness. Experiments on personalized text generation benchmarks show that PLUME matches or outperforms strong baselines while cutting per‑user parameters by over 95%.
