The paper introduces GLASS, a training‑free framework that personalizes text generation by combining global user‑style priors extracted with sparse autoencoders and local contrastive style vectors built from clustered interaction scenarios. During inference, GLASS injects these global and local vectors into different model layers, achieving context‑aware personalization without retrieval or parameter updates. Experiments on LaMP and LongLaMP datasets demonstrate that GLASS surpasses retrieval, fine‑tuning, and other steering baselines on ROUGE metrics and LLM‑as‑judge evaluations, and its SAE‑based representations show robustness to topic and length shifts, indicating better disentanglement of style from content.

The paper introduces Seq-Drifting, a new framework that enables diffusion language models to generate an entire text sequence in a single forward pass. By applying a drift field to continuous token representations, the model learns a direct mapping from Gaussian noise to text, using attraction to guide outputs toward contextually plausible tokens and repulsion to prevent repetition and collapse. Experiments show that Seq-Drifting achieves a perplexity of 36.01 on LM1B and performs competitively in unconditional, conditional, translation, summarization, and reasoning tasks.

The paper "Evaluating Style-Personalized Text Generation: Challenges and Directions" examines the difficulties of assessing text that is tailored to individual users’ styles. It critiques common metrics such as BLEU, embeddings, and LLM-as-judges, and introduces a style discrimination benchmark covering domain discrimination, authorship attribution, and LLM-generated personalized versus non-personalized discrimination across eight writing tasks. The study finds that ensembles of diverse evaluation metrics outperform single-evaluator approaches and offers guidance for reliable assessment of style-personalized generation.
