DyadMem: A Long-Term Memory Benchmark of How Agents Work with Users

Read the original on arXiv AI →

DyadMem introduces a new benchmark for evaluating how long‑term agents remember user‑specific relational information, called User‑conditioned Relational Agent Memory (URAM). The dataset contains 3,065 episodes, 50,961 sessions, and 61,210 QA pairs, with detailed annotations for memory capture, update, and recall across multi‑session trajectories. Experiments on 20 models show strong performance in a gold‑memory setting but a significant drop in full‑pipeline QA, highlighting gaps in current LLM memory capabilities.

When Does Memory Help? A Cost-Aware Evaluation of Long-Term Memory in Tool-Using LLM Agents

The paper introduces MERIT, a benchmark that evaluates the marginal benefit of long‑term memory for tool‑using large language model agents while explicitly accounting for cost. MERIT provides episodic tool‑use tasks across three domains, verifies dependence on earlier‑episode facts, and measures memory operations in tokens and dollars. Experiments on GPT‑4.1‑mini, Claude Haiku 4.5, and Claude Sonnet 5 show that memory can significantly improve task success, but its utility varies widely across models and memory implementations, and full replay is rarely cost‑effective.

Evaluating Memory in LLM Agents via Incremental Multi-Turn Interactions

arXiv:2507. 05257v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent benchmarks for Large Language Model (LLM) agents primarily focus on evaluating reasoning, planning, and execution capabilities, while another critical component-memory, encompassing how agents memorize, update, and retrieve long-term information-is under-evaluated due to the lack of benchmarks.

From Passive Retrieval to Active Memory Navigation: Learning to Use Memory as a Structured Action Space

arXiv:2607. 05794v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term user memory is essential for personalized conversational agents, yet many memory systems still expose memory through passive retrieval interfaces, making the model a consumer of pre-selected evidence.

Accurate and Efficient Long-Term Memory for LLM Agents

arXiv:2607. 16211v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM agents augmented with persistent memory can recall past interactions, but existing systems suffer from two limitations: flat, unstructured storage loses relational context needed for multi-hop and temporal reasoning, and reliance on expensive LLM-based classification makes them impractical for latency-sensitive deployment.
