Large Language Model (LLM) agents increasingly rely on external memory systems to accumulate experience across tasks. Yet nearly all existing approaches, from graph-structured memories to reflective insight stores, access memory through fixed, hand-designed heuristics.
arXiv:2607. 17621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing self-evolving memory systems mainly improve agent memory based on textual outputs, such as task trajectories and reflections.

AdaMem introduces adaptive memory policies that allow personalized agents to decide what information to write into long‑term memory based on user preferences for each interaction context. Each policy is updated from periodic feedback and controls subsequent memory writing, aiming to improve relevance and reduce unnecessary memory persistence. In experiments on AdaMem‑Bench, AdaMem raises QA accuracy from 80.0% to 84.35% while cutting persistent memory by 9.27%, though models still struggle to execute policies reliably.

The paper introduces kernel‑managed shared memory, a system‑level abstraction that lets specialized agents write structured, tagged memories while the agent‑system kernel controls retrieval, privacy, and prompt injection. Implemented on AIOS, this design outperforms unmanaged external memory, standard retrieval‑augmented injection, and full context concatenation across GPT‑4o, Llama‑3.1:8B, and Qwen‑2.5:7B, improving personalization scores by 2.4‑4.0 points on a 5‑point scale and reducing latency and token usage by 15‑61%. The results show that centralizing memory management in the kernel delivers most personalization benefits at a fraction of the cost.

CHIME introduces a credit‑aware hierarchical memory evolution framework that separates planning and execution experiences into distinct memory banks. By attributing each task outcome to the plan, execution, both, or neither before memorization, CHIME mitigates bias from noisy final outcomes and improves long‑horizon agent planning. Experiments on four benchmarks demonstrate that CHIME outperforms existing training‑based and self‑evolving memory methods, requires fewer memory items, and transfers effectively across backbone models.

MemoryArena is a new evaluation gym that benchmarks agent memory in interdependent multi‑session tasks. Unlike prior benchmarks that test memorization or single‑session action in isolation, MemoryArena requires agents to acquire memory while interacting with the environment and then use that memory to guide future decisions across a range of tasks such as web navigation, planning, information search, and formal reasoning. The benchmark reveals that agents excelling on existing long‑context memory tests perform poorly here, highlighting a gap in current memory evaluation methods.
