arXiv:2608. 03463v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long-term memory is essential for LLM-based agents to sustain interactions and reliably leverage distant history.
APDMem is a hierarchical long‑term memory system for personalized LLM assistants that uses progressive disclosure to retrieve conversation history. It organizes memory into four layers—thematic summaries, personalized key facts, turn‑level evidence notes, and raw messages—and a controller reads from the top layer, drilling down only when necessary. This approach balances cost and fidelity, allowing simple queries to finish early while deeper inspection is triggered for complex or exact‑evidence requests, and a note synthesizer structures retrieved evidence before answer generation. Experiments on LongMemEval show APDMem performs strongly while accessing only 8% of the total conversations.

MemFit is a long‑term memory system designed for conversational agents that stores each dialogue turn verbatim in an append‑only store, enabling near‑instantaneous, LLM‑free insertion. It indexes turns using segment summaries and employs an LLM‑free, multi‑path retrieval strategy that blends lexical and semantic signals with cross‑encoder reranking over caption‑augmented episodes. Experiments on LoCoMo, MemGallery, and LongMemEval‑S demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art performance while drastically reducing memory construction time and cost.
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.
