The paper introduces the Unified Memory Agent (UMA), a system that builds a query‑agnostic external memory from a data stream and reuses it across multiple question‑answering sessions. UMA employs a single policy to manage a structured Memory Bank via CRUD operations and uses Task‑Stratified GRPO to supervise memory maintenance based on QA trajectory rewards. The authors also present Ledger‑QA, a benchmark for long‑horizon state tracking, and demonstrate that UMA outperforms other methods on test‑time learning and accurate‑retrieval tasks, with UMA‑Specialist further improving performance after task adaptation.

DeepRefine is a reinforcement learning framework that improves the quality of pre‑constructed structured knowledge bases—such as knowledge graphs or LLM‑Wikis—by engaging in multi‑turn interactions with the base. It performs abductive diagnosis to locate defects, then applies targeted refinement actions to incrementally update the knowledge base. The system uses a Gain‑Beyond‑Draft reward to train its refinement policy end‑to‑end, achieving consistent downstream performance gains over strong baselines.

The paper introduces BRIDGE, a bilevel optimization framework that jointly trains a large language model (LLM) and a retriever for agentic reinforcement learning (ARL). It demonstrates that adapting the retriever before the policy yields better rewards, and that BRIDGE outperforms existing methods on seven open‑domain QA benchmarks and medical QA tasks, achieving significant gains in accuracy and reasoning quality.
