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.

PRAGMA: Evaluating Personalized Guidance with Memory Alignment in Lifelong Conversations

PRAGMA is a benchmark designed to evaluate personalized guidance in long‑term conversations. It includes curated longitudinal conversation histories, evidence annotations, and guidance scenarios that reflect evolving user contexts and incorrect assumptions. Experiments show that current retrieval, memory, and long‑context models struggle to recover relevant conversational evidence and to use it effectively for personalized guidance.
