The paper introduces PLUS, a framework that uses reinforcement learning to generate text-based summaries of individual users’ preferences, characteristics, and past conversations. These summaries condition a reward model, allowing it to predict personalized response preferences and improving reward accuracy by 11–77 % over the standard Bradley‑Terry model. PLUS demonstrates robust performance with new users and topics, achieves a 25 % improvement over existing personalized RLHF techniques, and enables zero‑shot personalization for state‑of‑the‑art models like GPT‑4.

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.
