The paper introduces RD-Forget, a training‑free framework that separates what a persistent language agent stores from what it uses at answer time. It keeps a source archive of all observations while a query‑conditioned memory view filters evidence relevant to the current question, using a frozen language‑model curator to group facts into semantic slots and preserve multi‑hop relations. The approach employs rate‑distortion principles to stay within a memory budget and demonstrates improvements across conversational memory, knowledge updating, fact consolidation, long‑context reasoning, and personalization tasks.

The paper introduces QEMem, a framework that rethinks how large language model agents use long‑term memory by constructing query‑specific evidence sets rather than relying on individual memory relevance. QEMem combines query‑guided discovery, source‑grounded reification into structured ViewCards, and sufficiency‑guided refinement to assemble comprehensive evidence from multiple memory granularities. Experiments show that QEMem achieves 91.43% LLM‑judge accuracy on LoCoMo with Claude Opus 4.5, surpassing leading baselines by significant margins and improving evidence coverage for cross‑session queries.

Persistent language agents need stored experience to remain available across time, while each answer requires evidence suited to a particular question. A superseded fact can mislead a current-state an...
The paper introduces T‑Mem, a memory framework that uses temporal structure to manage long‑horizon multi‑party conversations. It employs Temporal Evidence Discovery to find locally concentrated evidence, Temporal Memory Structuring to model state transitions and compress low‑information spans, and Evidence Forest Linearization to serialize the evidence for answer generation. Experiments on two benchmarks show that T‑Mem outperforms existing memory frameworks across various settings.

MemoryLACE (MemLACE) is a lightweight memory framework that explicitly models the lifecycle of textual evidence—capturing sparse merge, supersession, and contradiction relations—while preserving atomic natural‑language memories and their provenance. Unlike traditional systems that retrieve memories independently, MemLACE reconstructs relation‑aware evidence units that expose current, historical, supporting, and conflicting evidence for downstream reasoning. In benchmark evaluations (BEAM and StructMemEval) using both open‑weight and proprietary LLM backbones, MemLACE achieves the highest overall performance among same‑backbone comparisons and reduces BEAM runtime by 66.6% compared to the strongest reflective‑memory baseline, Hindsight.
