EdgeMem: LLM-Free Agent Memory Construction and Retrieval via Evidence-Preserving Multi-Anchor Hypergraph

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.

PGMem: Tightly Coupled Persona-Memory Graph for Lifelong Personalized Agents

PGMem introduces a persona‑memory graph that tightly couples user persona signals with the events that support or revise them, using typed provenance and evidence edges. This design addresses gaps in existing memory systems where personas are stored as flat, detached profiles. Experiments on three benchmarks show that PGMem outperforms various baseline memory approaches, especially as dialogue context length increases.
