Challenge: Personalization is a multifaceted process that requires multiple definitions and varies between individuals.
Approach: They propose to systemically survey the recent landscape of personalized dialogue generation including the datasets employed, methodologies developed, and evaluation metrics applied.
Outcome: The proposed model can generate fluent and coherent responses to human queries in a language-based conversational agent.

A Personalized Dialogue Generator with Implicit User Persona Detection (2022.coling-1)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing models for personalized dialogue generation tend to be self-centered, with little care for the user in the dialogue.
Approach: They propose a personalized dialogue generator by detecting an implicit user persona and using conditional variational inference to model the user's potential persona with no external knowledge.
Outcome: The proposed model improves both automatic metrics and human evaluations by focusing on the user's persona and posterior-discriminated regularization.
Exploring Persona Sentiment Sensitivity in Personalized Dialogue Generation (2025.acl-long)

Challenge: Personalized dialogue systems have advanced with the integration of user-specific personas into large language models (LLMs).
Approach: They propose a dialogue generation approach that explicitly accounts for persona polarity by combining a turn-based generation strategy with a profile ordering mechanism and sentiment-aware prompting.
Outcome: The proposed approach accounts for persona polarity by combining a turn-based generation strategy with a profile ordering mechanism and sentiment-aware prompting.

Outcome: The proposed model outperforms baseline models in terms of human-evaluated fluency and consistency on a persona-chat dataset.
Learning to Predict Persona Information for Dialogue Personalization without Explicit Persona Description (2023.findings-acl)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing approaches to personalize dialogue agents rely on explicit persona descriptions during inference, which severely limits their application in real-world scenarios.
Approach: They propose a method that learns to predict persona information based on the dialogue history to personalize dialogue agents without relying on explicit persona descriptions during inference.
Outcome: The proposed method improves the consistency and engagingness of generated responses when conditioning on the predicted profile of the dialogue agent.
PRODIGy: a PROfile-based DIalogue Generation dataset (2024.findings-naacl)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing profiles-based dialogue datasets lack explicit profile representations or are difficult to collect.
Approach: They propose a dataset that brings together multiple profiles for each speaker, and then integrates them together to provide a more comprehensive profile dimension set for generative language models.
Outcome: The PRODIGy dataset provides a more comprehensive profile dimension set for each speaker.
Less is More: Learning to Refine Dialogue History for Personalized Dialogue Generation (2022.naacl-main)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing personalized dialogue systems extract user profiles from dialogue history to guide personalized response generation.
Approach: They propose to refine the user dialogue history on a large scale to obtain more persona information from the dialogue history and leverage other similar users' data to enhance personalization.
Outcome: The proposed model can handle more dialogue history and obtain more abundant and accurate persona information.
