arXiv:2608. 19621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) offer a scalable approach to social simulation, but their credibility depends on how agents are constructed.
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.
arXiv:2608. 05170v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Role-playing agents (RPAs) have emerged as a key application of large language models, enabling immersive and high-fidelity character simulation.
arXiv:2606. 06787v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) show promise as tool-using agents but remain limited in long-horizon tasks that require remembering, organizing, and reusing knowledge.
The paper introduces Temporal Semantic Memory (TSM), a framework that improves how large language model agents manage memory by addressing two key shortcomings: temporal inaccuracy and temporal fragmentation. TSM constructs a semantic timeline instead of a dialogue timeline, consolidating temporally continuous and semantically related information into durative memory. During retrieval, it aligns the query’s temporal intent with the semantic timeline, enabling the use of temporally appropriate durative memories and yielding up to a 12.2% accuracy boost over existing methods.
arXiv:2605. 09159v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent work shows that large language models (LLMs) encode behavioral traits ("personas") as linear directions in activation space, often called "persona vectors".
