TLDR
This paper formulates personalized web agents that condition on user profiles and historical web behaviors, introduces the PersonalWAB benchmark for evaluating that setting, and proposes the PUMA alignment method. PUMA uses a memory bank with task-specific retrieval plus fine-tuning and preference optimization to improve user-dependent action execution.
