Proposed Title
MemAlign: Efficient Alignment of LLM Judges to Human Experts With a Dual-Memory System
Abstract
MemAlign is a new framework that aligns LLM judges with human feedback through a lightweight dual-memory system inspired by human cognition. Unlike traditional approaches that require hundreds of labeled examples or expensive fine-tuning, MemAlign learns from just a handful of natural language feedback examples, achieving competitive or better quality than state-of-the-art prompt optimizers at up to 100× lower latency and 10× lower cost. The framework uses Semantic Memory to store generalizable principles and Episodic Memory to retain specific edge cases, enabling fast adaptation to domain-specific evaluation standards. MemAlign is now available in MLflow as an optimization algorithm behind the align() method.
