用元学习让大模型快速适应不同用户偏好,少样本也能精准个性化。
One Adapts to Any: Meta Reward Modeling for Personalized LLM Alignment
- 将用户偏好建模为基函数加权组合,通过元学习初始化权重实现快速适配。
- 在少样本条件下显著提升个性化效果,对难学用户也更鲁棒。
- 适合需要快速响应个体偏好的对话系统与推荐场景。
大型语言模型的对齐旨在使输出符合人类偏好,而个性化对齐则进一步将模型适配到具体用户。这依赖于捕捉用户特定偏好的个性化奖励模型,并自动提供个性化反馈。然而,构建此类模型面临两大挑战:个体用户反馈数据稀缺,以及对未见用户的高效适应。我们提出,解决这些限制需从拟合数据转向学习偏好适应过程。为此,我们引入元奖励建模(MRM),将个性化奖励建模重构为元学习问题。具体而言,将每位用户的奖励模型表示为基奖励函数的加权组合,并使用类MAML框架优化其权重初始化,以在有限反馈下实现快速适应。为增强鲁棒性,我们设计了鲁棒个性化目标(RPO),在元优化中更关注难学用户。在多个个性化偏好数据集上的实验表明,MRM在少样本个性化中表现更优,提升了用户鲁棒性,并持续超越基线方法。代码已开源:https://github.com/ModalityDance/MRM。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Alignment of Large Language Models (LLMs) aims to align outputs with human preferences, and personalized alignment further adapts models to individual users. This relies on personalized reward models that capture user-specific preferences and automatically provide individualized feedback. However, developing these models faces two critical challenges: the scarcity of feedback from individual users and the need for efficient adaptation to unseen users. We argue that addressing these constraints requires a paradigm shift from fitting data to learn user preferences to learn the process of preference adaptation. To realize this, we propose Meta Reward Modeling (MRM), which reformulates personalized reward modeling as a meta-learning problem. Specifically, we represent each user's reward model as a weighted combination of base reward functions, and optimize the initialization of these weights using a Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning (MAML)-style framework to support fast adaptation under limited feedback. To ensure robustness, we introduce the Robust Personalization Objective (RPO), which places greater emphasis on hard-to-learn users during meta optimization. Extensive experiments on personalized preference datasets validate that MRM enhances few-shot personalization, improves user robustness, and consistently outperforms baselines. We release code at https://github.com/ModalityDance/MRM.
