From Triggers to Emotions: A CPM-Grounded Appraisal Multi-Agent for Dynamic Emotional Evolution in Persona-Based Dialogue

arXiv:2607. 07824v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have substantially advanced persona-based dialogue agents for emotion-sensitive role simulation in healthcare, education, counseling, customer service, and interactive storytelling.

Learning What to Share and What to Personalize: Hierarchical Strategy Co-Evolution for Agent Memory

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.

Do LLMs Understand Personality? Rethinking Persona Fidelity Evaluation through Structured Behavioral Inference

The paper introduces PRISM, a new framework for evaluating how well large language models (LLMs) maintain persona fidelity in dynamic dialogue. PRISM reframes the task as a structured inverse inference problem grounded in Systemic Functional Linguistics, breaking persona fidelity into Task Framing, Interpersonal Stance, and Linguistic Style dimensions. Experiments demonstrate that PRISM produces more accurate and stable judgments than existing holistic or static psychometric methods, offering a more reliable and auditable evaluation process.
