Researchers have developed SeDT, a novel method to address the "Lost in Conversation" problem where large language models (LLMs) degrade in performance when tasks are presented incrementally across multiple turns. SeDT, a training-free inference-time technique, annotates conversation history with relevance scores based on semantic, lexical, and positional signals. This allows the LLM to distinguish critical information from incidental dialogue, significantly improving performance and reliability on multi-turn tasks without altering model weights or discarding context.
