PersonaX: A Recommendation Agent Oriented User Modeling Framework for Long Behavior Sequence

  • 将用户完整行为序列分组聚类,提取有代表性的子序列作为核心数据
  • 仅用480长度数据的30%-50%,使推荐模型性能提升3%-50%
  • 离线生成可复用的用户画像,降低线上推理延迟

嵌入个性化推荐智能体提示模板中的用户档案对其决策至关重要。高质量用户档案有助于对齐智能体行为与真实用户兴趣。通常通过大语言模型进行用户画像建模(LLM-UM),但面临三大挑战:(1) 大模型因上下文长度限制和性能下降,难以处理长序列行为;(2) 现有方法仅提取历史行为的部分片段,导致遗漏多样化的用户兴趣,造成建模不完整;(3) 用户画像常与推理上下文耦合,需在线生成,带来显著延迟。本文提出PersonaX,一种面向智能体的通用大语言模型用户建模框架,可提升推荐性能与推理效率。PersonaX (a) 将完整历史行为分段聚类,(b) 选取具备代表性与多样性的多个子行为序列(SBS)构成高质量核心集,(c) 离线完成多角色画像生成,构建细粒度、缓存式文本画像,(d) 实现画像与在线推理解耦,通过检索替代实时生成。大量实验表明,仅使用30%至50%的行为数据(序列长度480),PersonaX使AgentCF提升3%-11%,Agent4Rec提升10%-50%。作为可扩展、模型无关的LLM-UM方案,PersonaX树立了可扩展用户建模的新基准。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

User profile embedded in the prompt template of personalized recommendation agents play a crucial role in shaping their decision-making process. High-quality user profiles are essential for aligning agent behavior with real user interests. Typically, these profiles are constructed by leveraging LLMs for user profile modeling (LLM-UM). However, this process faces several challenges: (1) LLMs struggle with long user behaviors due to context length limitations and performance degradation. (2) Existing methods often extract only partial segments from full historical behavior sequence, inevitably discarding diverse user interests embedded in the omitted content, leading to incomplete modeling and suboptimal profiling. (3) User profiling is often tightly coupled with the inference context, requiring online processing, which introduces significant latency overhead. In this paper, we propose PersonaX, an agent-agnostic LLM-UM framework to address these challenges. It augments downstream recommendation agents to achieve better recommendation performance and inference efficiency. PersonaX (a) segments complete historical behaviors into clustered groups, (b) selects multiple sub behavior sequences (SBS) with a balance of prototypicality and diversity to form a high quality core set, (c) performs offline multi-persona profiling to capture diverse user interests and generate fine grained, cached textual personas, and (d) decouples user profiling from online inference, enabling profile retrieval instead of real time generation. Extensive experiments demonstrate its effectiveness: using only 30 to 50% of behavioral data (sequence length 480), PersonaX enhances AgentCF by 3 to 11% and Agent4Rec by 10 to 50%. As a scalable and model-agnostic LLM-UM solution, PersonaX sets a new benchmark in scalable user modeling.
