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.

EdgeMem is a new agent-memory method that preserves original interaction turns and organizes them using complementary content, temporal, and episodic cues via a multi‑anchor hypergraph. It performs lightweight local processing, returning source evidence directly and reserving LLM use only for final answer generation. Experiments on LoCoMo and LongMemEval‑S demonstrate strong retrieval and memory‑grounded question answering, with EdgeMem achieving the highest strict‑judge score among seven systems on LoCoMo while requiring no generative‑LLM calls for construction and retrieval.

The paper introduces AMA, a framework that uses multiple agents—Constructor, Retriever, Judge, and Refresher—to manage memory for large language model agents. AMA’s hierarchical memory design dynamically adjusts retrieval granularity to match task complexity, while the Judge and Refresher ensure relevance, consistency, and timely updates. Experiments on long-context benchmarks show AMA outperforms existing baselines and cuts token usage by about 80% compared to full-context approaches.
