Aligned but Not Partner-Specific: Distinguishing How Multimodal LLM Agents Succeed in Reference Games Without Human-Like Conventions

arXiv:2606. 08081v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Repeated reference games test whether interlocutors replace their initially long descriptions with shorter, partner-specific conventions grounded in shared interaction history.

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.
