arXiv:2607. 27816v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Role-playing agents (RPAs) have become one of the most important consumer applications of large language models.
arXiv:2605. 22240v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Proactive task-oriented dialogue (TOD), such as outbound sales, demands a persuasive agent that actively probes the user's concerns and steers the conversation toward acceptance within a bounded number of turns.
KnowSim introduces an evaluation framework that uses a user simulator with explicit knowledge states to assess how well large language models calibrate information to users. The simulator represents knowledge as a graph of Information Units with prerequisite relationships and updates these states based on learning theory. KnowSim computes Knowledge Gain, Delivery Calibration, and Cognitive Overload metrics, and its rankings align with human judgments, outperforming baseline simulators and revealing model performance differences across user knowledge levels.
arXiv:2608. 19549v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper addresses the issue of the significant labor required to test interview dialogue systems.
arXiv:2606. 05697v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: User interface (UI) and user experience (UX) evaluation is central to product development, yet reliable feedback still relies on recruiting human participants or running online A/B tests, making early-stage iteration slow and costly.
arXiv:2606. 18263v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to simulate human populations via persona prompting, often under the assumptions that richer persona descriptions improve behavioral fidelity, similarly sized attribute combinations are equally simulatable, and persona definitions generalize across tasks.
arXiv:2411. 10109v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Machine learning can predict human behavior well when substantial structured data are available for well-defined outcomes.
arXiv:2608.30033v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used to simulate human behavior but frequently fail to exhibit realistic cognitive constraints, sufferi...
arXiv:2603.16783v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Robust voice agents require exposure to the full diversity of how people interact through speech. However, obtaining enough spoken interactions is...
arXiv:2603. 03824v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Humans often become more self-aware under threat, yet can lose self-awareness when absorbed in a task; we hypothesize that language models exhibit environment-dependent \textit{evaluation awareness}.
arXiv:2606. 02754v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalization is a crucial capability of modern language agents.
