Dual Latent Memory for Visual Multi-agent System

arXiv:2602. 00471v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While Visual Multi-Agent Systems (VMAS) promise to enhance comprehensive abilities through inter-agent collaboration, empirical evidence reveals a counter-intuitive "scaling wall": increasing agent turns often degrades performance while exponentially inflating token costs.

DMV-Bench: Diagnosing Long-Horizon Multimodal Agents' Visual Memory with Incidental Cue Injection

arXiv:2606. 27499v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Research on agent memory has matured rapidly, but almost entirely on the text side: few existing benchmarks ask, in an interactive environment, when an agent genuinely needs to remember what it saw rather than what it could write down.

Collaborative Memory for Multi-Agent VLM Systems

The paper introduces a framework for collaborative memory in multi‑agent vision‑language model (VLM) systems, addressing how agents share and update visual context across distributed perception and reasoning tasks. It outlines a memory hierarchy, cross‑agent sharing protocols, and consistency mechanisms to reconcile differing interpretations and recover missing visual information. The design emphasizes preserving not only raw images or textual summaries but also the dependencies among observations, interpretations, and subsequent reasoning, thereby shaping information flow across agents.

MemoryArena: Benchmarking Agent Memory in Interdependent Multi-Session Agentic Tasks

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.

H2HMem: A Multimodal Memory Benchmark for Agents in Human-Human Interactions

Large language model agents are increasingly deployed in human-human interaction settings, such as meeting assistants and clinical documentation systems, where they must observe conversations and retain information for downstream queries. Unlike traditional human-assistant settings, these environments are inherently multimodal, involve complex discourse phenomena such as anaphora and deixis, and contain asynchronous or conflicting information from multiple participants.

When Memory Takes Gradients: Collaborative Vector Memory for Agentic Recommender Systems

The paper introduces CoVeMem, a Collaborative Vector Memory system that replaces text-based memory in agentic recommender systems with vectorized user and item states derived from a frozen LightGCN model. By retrieving relevant historical states at each decision and integrating them as soft tokens in the LLM’s context, CoVeMem enables contrastive alignment and listwise co‑training to learn how to read and rank these states, achieving performance on par with or better than existing text‑memory agents across multiple benchmarks without extra LLM calls for memory updates.
