The paper introduces RoMem, a temporal knowledge graph module that treats time as continuous phase rotation rather than discrete labels. RoMem uses a Semantic Speed Gate to assign volatility scores to relations, allowing evolving facts to rotate quickly while persistent facts remain stable, thereby preventing the need for deletion or costly LLM calls. The method achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on ICEWS05‑15 and improves temporal reasoning in agentic memory benchmarks such as MultiTQ, LoCoMo, and FinTMMBench.

The paper introduces PUlSE, a lightweight probing method that uses a language model’s internal representations to decide when to retrieve external biomedical evidence during medical reasoning. By analyzing inter‑layer volatility, PUlSE identifies erroneous reasoning steps and triggers adaptive retrieval, achieving comparable accuracy to exhaustive retrieval while cutting retrieval calls by 72%. The approach also transfers to an unseen legal domain, suggesting broader applicability.

CALM is a conflict‑aware lifecycle memory governance framework designed for long‑horizon language agents. It transforms heterogeneous records into evidence‑grounded memory cells, updates their validity and lifecycle states using support, conflict, and dependency signals, and admits query‑appropriate evidence through training‑free or learned gating based on temporal applicability. Experiments on LongMemEval‑S and LoCoMo with Qwen and GPT backbones show that CALM outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines, improves evidence selection, suppresses erroneous memories, and preserves superseded records for accurate earlier‑state reasoning.

LLM agents that persist across sessions accumulate stored memories whose validity varies enormously by content type, yet existing memory architectures treat all memories as equally persistent and systematically contaminate retrieved context with outdated facts. We show that per-memory, type-conditioned temporal decay, a property of western scrub jay episodic memory, can be operationalized as an auto-classified coefficient $π_i$ in an external LLM-agent memory store, yielding ScrubJay-MEM: each memory is encoded as a jointly-bound What--Where--When tuple with an estimated perishability $π_i$ and utility horizon $τ_i$, retrieved by query-adaptive scoring, and revised retroactively at $O(1)$ LLM calls per update.

The paper introduces CogMem, a cognitive memory architecture for long‑term dialogue agents that uses a PEC$^2$F graph schema to separate claims, facts, and events. Dialogue turns are incrementally turned into provenance‑aware graph records, consolidated into higher‑level facts, and reconciled into temporally scoped claim views when conflicting updates arise. Retrieval is performed by a rule‑based controller that applies deterministic graph operators—anchoring, traversal, intersection, and evidence grounding—guided by LLM intent parsing, achieving strong performance on multi‑hop, temporal, and knowledge‑update tasks in LoCoMo and LongMemEval benchmarks.
