  • 从人类记忆分类出发,建立大模型记忆的三维度分类框架
  • 系统归纳现有工作,提出涵盖对象、形式、时间的八类记忆模式
  • 揭示当前记忆系统的不足,指引未来发展方向

记忆是编码、存储和检索信息的过程,使人类能够长期保留经验、知识、技能和事实,成为成长与世界有效互动的基础。它塑造身份、辅助决策、从过往中学习、建立关系并适应变化。在大语言模型(LLMs)时代,记忆指人工智能系统保留、回忆并利用历史交互信息以提升未来响应的能力。尽管已有研究详述记忆机制,但缺乏系统性综述来分析大模型记忆与人类记忆的关系,以及如何借鉴人类记忆设计更强大的记忆系统。本文提出一项全面的综述,首先详细分析人类记忆类别,并将其与人工智能记忆对应;其次,系统组织现有研究,提出基于对象、形式和时间三个维度的八象限分类法;最后,指出当前人工智能记忆系统存在的开放问题,并展望未来研究方向。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Memory is the process of encoding, storing, and retrieving information, allowing humans to retain experiences, knowledge, skills, and facts over time, and serving as the foundation for growth and effective interaction with the world. It plays a crucial role in shaping our identity, making decisions, learning from past experiences, building relationships, and adapting to changes. In the era of large language models (LLMs), memory refers to the ability of an AI system to retain, recall, and use information from past interactions to improve future responses and interactions. Although previous research and reviews have provided detailed descriptions of memory mechanisms, there is still a lack of a systematic review that summarizes and analyzes the relationship between the memory of LLM-driven AI systems and human memory, as well as how we can be inspired by human memory to construct more powerful memory systems. To achieve this, in this paper, we propose a comprehensive survey on the memory of LLM-driven AI systems. In particular, we first conduct a detailed analysis of the categories of human memory and relate them to the memory of AI systems. Second, we systematically organize existing memory-related work and propose a categorization method based on three dimensions (object, form, and time) and eight quadrants. Finally, we illustrate some open problems regarding the memory of current AI systems and outline possible future directions for memory in the era of large language models.
