Personalization of Large Language Models: A Survey
Personalization of Large Language Models (LLMs) has recently become increasingly important with a wide range of applications. Despite the importance and recent progress, most existing works on personalized LLMs have focused either entirely on (a) personalized text generation or (b) leveraging LLMs for personalization-related downstream applications, such as recommendation systems. In this work, we bridge the gap between these two separate main directions for the first time by introducing a taxonomy for personalized LLM usage and summarizing the key differences and challenges. We provide a formalization of the foundations of personalized LLMs that consolidates and expands notions of personalization of LLMs, defining and discussing novel facets of personalization, usage, and desiderata of personalized LLMs. We then unify the literature across these diverse fields and usage scenarios by proposing systematic taxonomies for the granularity of personalization, personalization techniques, datasets, evaluation methods, and applications of personalized LLMs. Finally, we highlight challenges and important open problems that remain to be addressed. By unifying and surveying recent research using the proposed taxonomies, we aim to provide a clear guide to the existing literature and different facets of personalization in LLMs, empowering both researchers and practitioners.

Two Tales of Persona in LLMs: A Survey of Role-Playing and Personalization
The concept of persona, originally adopted in dialogue literature, has re-surged as a promising framework for tailoring large language models (LLMs) to specific context (e.g., personalized search, LLM-as-a-judge). Howeve…
SurveyAplaud: Adaptive Personalized Low-Rank Decomposition for User-Specific LLM
In this paper, we study the problem of personalized survey response prediction using fine-tuned large language models (LLMs). This task poses unique challenges: limited per-user training data, scalability of model storag…
A Survey on Personalized Affective Computing in Human-Machine Interaction
In computing, the aim of personalization is to train a model that caters to a specific individual or group of people by optimizing one or more performance metrics and adhering to specific constraints. In this paper, we d…
