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:2603. 29875v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: One of the key problems in Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems is that chunk-based retrieval pipelines represent the source chunks as atomic objects, mixing the information contained within such a chunk into a single vector.

The paper introduces Iris-mini and Iris-pro, two search agents trained at 35B and 397B parameter scales. They use a novel data pipeline that constructs reverse‑engineered multi‑hop queries from web hyperlinks, filters trajectories, and alternates supervised fine‑tuning with reinforcement learning in a process called SFT‑RL climbing. Evaluations on several benchmarks show that, with inference‑time context management, the agents achieve the best open‑source results in their parameter ranges.

Graph retrieval-augmented generation (GraphRAG) enhances large language models with structured knowledge, yet existing systems construct knowledge graphs in a single extraction pass, producing noisy entities and brittle retrieval. RAGU, an open-source modular GraphRAG engine, addresses this by separating extraction from consolidation: entities and relations pass through two-stage typed extraction, DBSCAN-backed deduplication, LLM summarization, and Leiden community detection.

The paper introduces EffiRAG, a graph-based retrieval‑augmented generation system that reduces the cost of building and querying a graph by using it only to locate relevant passages and generating answers from the original text. On the UltraDomain benchmark, EffiRAG outperforms LightRAG‑hybrid in 93 of 120 questions while cutting total system cost by 57 % (from USD 0.952 to USD 0.408). The study shows that graph‑based RAG can be both more accurate and cheaper, especially as the corpus grows, and recommends evaluating such systems on both answer quality and cost.

The paper argues that retrieval‑augmented question‑answering systems should perform semantic compilation at ingest time rather than re‑deriving meaning at query time. By building a maintained structure—incrementally updated embeddings and validated atomic claims—read operations become far cheaper, with experimental results showing higher accuracy and lower token usage compared to traditional chunk‑based retrieval. The authors present two proofs: cheaper incremental updates and superior performance on broadcast‑interview transcripts, suggesting a new systems agenda for compilation and read planning.

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.
