PersonaForge is a user‑simulation framework that generates realistic multi‑turn interactions between users and agentic systems, addressing the gap that most training data assumes single‑turn queries. It uses a four‑dimensional persona space, SOUL‑driven behavioral control calibrated to real‑user statistics, and Reverse Deep Construction from authentic seed queries to create a 6.3K‑record training set and a 138‑task benchmark called PersonaForge‑Bench across 20 professional domains. Experiments with Qwen3.5‑27B show that training with PersonaForge improves composite scores by 4.1%, especially in Task Completion (+6.0%) and Response Quality (+6.8%), while also reducing turns and tool calls, indicating more efficient interactions.

arXiv:2604. 19139v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As Large Language Models (LLMs) continue to evolve through alignment techniques such as Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) and Constitutional AI, a growing and increasingly conspicuous phenomenon has emerged: the proliferation of verbal tics--repetitive, formulaic linguistic patterns that pervade model outputs.
