The paper introduces rEDMRec, a method that compresses a large language model’s reasoning about user preferences and item comparisons into a compact, editable memory. This memory, organized into four channels—long‑term preference, short‑term context, item perception, and counterfactual hard‑negative comparisons—can be updated by an LLM controller and queried by a lightweight student LLM for ranking, eliminating the need to re‑run the expensive teacher model for each request. Experiments on ML‑1M, Amazon Beauty, and Steam datasets show that rEDMRec consistently outperforms zero‑shot, few‑shot, RAG, and GraphRAG baselines, achieving up to a 13.3% improvement in HR@1 on ML‑1M.

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:2606. 13177v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly expected to operate over long-term interactions, where information from past dialogues must be preserved and recalled to support future tasks.
arXiv:2607. 20458v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents operating over extended dialogues accumulate vast amounts of information, yet existing memory systems either retain everything indiscriminately or apply uniform forgetting heuristics that fail to distinguish relevant from irrelevant knowledge.
Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly expected to operate over long-term interactions, where information from past dialogues must be preserved and recalled to support future tasks. However, as interactions accumulate, the memory store grows without bound and fills with redundant entries that inflate storage cost and degrade retrieval by crowding out the most useful evidence.

arXiv:2606. 17803v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models achieve strong reasoning performance by scaling inference-time compute, yet remain fundamentally stateless, discarding the rich, self-produced reasoning traces generated during this process.

arXiv:2607. 01170v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative reasoning re-rankers achieve strong recommendation accuracy by emitting a chain-of-thought before re-ordering a candidate list, but they are slow at inference: an autoregressive (AR) decoder spends one sequential forward pass per reasoning token, and the reasoning trace far exceeds the ranking it produces.
arXiv:2607. 22690v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term memory lets LLM agents reuse past interactions, but raw dialogue histories are verbose and information-sparse.
The paper investigates how Engram-style hashed memory can be transferred between different language model backbones. By freezing a memory table trained on a source model and attaching it to a target model with only a lightweight reader, the authors find that both the memory content and correct addressing are important, but the reader must be aligned to the target to make the memory useful. In question‑answering experiments, a dual‑layer, four‑branch reader nearly matches same‑model performance, and when the reader interface is directly compatible, the frozen memory alone provides substantial benefit, with optional reader adaptation offering further gains.
