Weighted Memory Tree: Remembering What Matters for Long-Horizon LLM Agents

The paper introduces the Weighted Memory Tree (WMT), a hierarchical memory system for large language model agents that organizes execution histories into tasks, subtasks, and actions while assigning each memory a dynamic retention score. Event-based updates and selection-based decay allow WMT to preserve useful information, fold completed trajectories, suppress low-utility content, and retain access to folded context. Experiments on GAIA-Text with Qwen3-8B, Gemma 4 E4B, and Llama-3.1-8B show that WMT improves accuracy by an average of 9.97 percentage points and reduces prompt-token usage by 32.8%, while also limiting the persistence of unreliable information.
