PersMem: Internalizing Personality into Dual-Pathway Memory for LLM Agents
The profile of a role-playing agent usually depends on the pre-defined personality in a system prompt, whereas its memory processing pipeline, including prioritisation of stored memories and subsequent retrieval, remains independent of this personality. This separation causes the agent's memory processing to be inconsistent with the pre-defined personality, and makes it difficult to validate whether agent behaviours follow this personality.
