arXiv:2601. 00821v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A growing class of conversational-memory systems compresses dialogue history into structured artifacts -- extracted facts, decisions, or events -- on the premise that distilled structure retrieves better than raw text.
arXiv:2601. 00821v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A growing class of conversational-memory systems compresses dialogue history into structured artifacts (extracted facts, decisions, or events) on the premise that distilled structure retrieves better than raw text.
arXiv:2608. 08055v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents that assist users over weeks of conversation must remember what is currently true, not merely what was once said.
arXiv:2606. 09900v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-term memory is the missing layer for LLM agents: across sessions they forget, and the common workaround -- replaying the whole history into the prompt -- is expensive, slow, and, as distractors accumulate, less accurate.
arXiv:2608. 03463v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term memory is essential for LLM-based agents to sustain interactions and reliably leverage distant history.
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.
arXiv:2606. 06337v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) deployments for long-horizon tasks face a fundamental constraint: context windows are finite while productive work sessions are not.
arXiv:2606. 04194v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieving the few past turns that answer a new query across long multi-session histories is the retrieval bottleneck behind long-term conversational memory (LoCoMo, LongMemEval).
arXiv:2607. 19359v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term memory is essential for LLM agents that interact across sessions, yet current memory benchmarks primarily evaluate single-hop recall, leaving multi-hop association largely unmeasured.
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.
Gist-based context compression---summarising older conversation history into compact representations---is a common approach in long-horizon language model agents, yet its effect on different types of memory retrieval is poorly understood. We use Salience-Weighted Consolidation (SWC), a biologically-inspired compression framework motivated by sleep-based memory consolidation, as a diagnostic probe to study when gist compression helps and when it hurts.
arXiv:2606. 04442v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI systems increasingly need to combine two demanding capabilities: navigating multi-session conversation history and performing deep reading comprehension within long documents.
arXiv:2606. 15405v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-term memory is essential for conversational agents to remain coherent across extended dialogues, follow through on commitments made many sessions earlier, and adapt their behaviour to each user.
