Long-horizon steel-equipment inspection requires reasoning over heterogeneous records accumulated across repeated inspection cycles. Existing retrieval-augmented generation systems treat historical logs as a static corpus and retain records without estimating their diagnostic value, failing to report early risk.

Memory is a key capability of LLM agents. Persistent memory extends this across sessions---enabling recall, revision, and personalization.

This paper presents the IEEE International Conference on Multimedia and Expo (ICME) 2026 Grand Challenge on Cross-Scenario Defect Detection and Fine-Grained Severity Grading for High-Precision Manufacturing. The challenge is motivated by two key limitations of existing industrial defect inspection systems: (1) current deep learning-based methods often suffer significant performance degradation when deployed in unseen production scenarios, and (2) most benchmarks neglect severity-aware assessment, which is critical for risk control and yield optimization.
arXiv:2608. 17775v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Anomaly detectors are hardest to deploy exactly where training data is scarcest: a newly commissioned production line has a handful of verified "golden" samples and no machine-learning engineer on the factory floor.

arXiv:2607. 22639v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Parametric retrieval enables LLMs to retrieve tools implicitly by assigning each API a unique virtual token and training the model to generate it via constrained beam search.
