Abstract
Recent advancements in inference-time scaling have significantly unlocked the complex reasoning capabilities of Large Language Models~(LLMs). However, for agents, these approaches suffer from a critical inefficiency, operating in a stateless manner and engaging in redundant search processes. Existing memory mechanisms largely rely on the reasoning capabilities of LLMs, leading to prohibitive computational costs. In this paper, we propose a novel framework, \textit{GAMER}(Graph-based Action-centric Memory with Episodic Reasoning), that bridges the gap between inference scaling and episodic memory. Our approach models historical reasoning as a dynamic \textit{Action-Centric Graph}. By decoupling the memory mechanism from LLMs, our method can save token/money usage by providing less memory context than memory mechanism baselines. To extract knowledge from the graph effectively, we use a dual-stream Temporal Difference learning mechanism to estimate the positive(suggestion) and negative~(avoidance) value of action nodes based on past successes and failures. During the inference phase, this learned value function optimizes decision-making bi-directionally, so that positive values provide action suggestions, while negative values indicate high-risk actions. By performing efficient searches on the graph, our method significantly improves the efficiency of inference scaling. Experiments on multiple benchmarks demonstrate that \textit{GAMER} achieves superior performance by \textbf{20.81%/6.17%} for success/progress rate compared to vanilla baselines.
Large language model (LLM) agents often rely on long sequences of low-level textual actions, resulting in large effective decision horizons and high inference cost. While prior work has focused on improving inference efficiency through system-level optimizations or prompt engineering, we argue that a key bottleneck lies in the representation of the action space itself. We propose Latent Action Reparameterization (LAR), a framework that learns a compact latent action space in which each latent action corresponds to a multi-step semantic behavior. By reparameterizing agent actions into latent units, LAR enables decision making over a shorter effective horizon while preserving the expressiveness of the original action space. Unlike hand-crafted macros or hierarchical controllers, latent actions are learned from agent trajectories and integrated directly into the model, allowing both planning and execution to operate over abstract action representations. Across a range of LLM-based agent benchmarks, LAR significantly reduces the effective action horizon and improves inference efficiency under fixed compute budgets. As a consequence, our approach achieves substantial reductions in action tokens and corresponding wall-clock inference time, while maintaining or improving task success rates. These results suggest that action representation learning is a critical and underexplored factor in scaling efficient LLM agent inference, complementary to advances in model architecture and hardware.
Mixture-of-Agents (MoA) architectures improve inference-time scaling by organizing multiple LLM agents into layered reasoning pipelines. However, existing MoA variants fail to sustain gains as depth increases, exhibiting degradation, early plateauing, or saturation. We propose ReM-MoA, a memory-augmented MoA framework that sustains scaling through two mechanisms: (1) a Ranked Reasoning Memory that persistently stores and ranks reasoning traces from all layers using a comparative Reviewer Agent, and (2) a Curated Diversified Memory Routing scheme that exposes different agents to distinct combinations of successful and failed traces, preserving exploration diversity while propagating high-quality reasoning. We further introduce an optional multi-domain Reviewer distillation pipeline that improves ranking quality through frontier-model supervision. Across five reasoning benchmarks spanning math, formal logic, code, knowledge, and commonsense, ReM-MoA consistently outperforms prior MoA variants across both depth and width scaling, and its advantage widens with depth, establishing structured cross-layer reasoning memory as a key missing mechanism for scalable multi-agent inference.
The transition from stateless language model inference to persistent, multi session autonomous agents has revealed memory to be a primary architectural bottleneck in the deployment of production grade agentic systems. Existing methodologies largely depend on hybrid semantic graph architectures, which impose substantial computational overhead during both ingestion and retrieval. These systems typically require large language model mediated entity extraction, explicit graph schema maintenance, and multi query retrieval pipelines. This paper introduces Memanto, a universal memory layer for agentic artificial intelligence that challenges the prevailing assumption that knowledge graph complexity is necessary to achieve high fidelity agent memory. Memanto integrates a typed semantic memory schema comprising thirteen predefined memory categories, an automated conflict resolution mechanism, and temporal versioning. These components are enabled by Moorcheh's Information Theoretic Search engine, a no indexing semantic database that provides deterministic retrieval within sub ninety millisecond latency while eliminating ingestion delay. Through systematic benchmarking on the LongMemEval and LoCoMo evaluation suites, Memanto achieves state of the art accuracy scores of 89.8 percent and 87.1 percent respectively. These results surpass all evaluated hybrid graph and vector based systems while requiring only a single retrieval query, incurring no ingestion cost, and maintaining substantially lower operational complexity. A five stage progressive ablation study is presented to quantify the contribution of each architectural component, followed by a discussion of the implications for scalable deployment of agentic memory systems.
