让用户动态控制智能体记忆依赖,平衡记忆忠诚与创新。

Controllable Memory Usage: Balancing Anchoring and Innovation in Long-Term Human-Agent Interaction

  • 提出可调节记忆依赖的框架,用户可自由切换记忆强度。
  • 实验显示新方法在多场景下优于固定记忆策略。
  • 适合需要个性化长期交互的AI应用开发者使用。

随着基于大模型的智能体在长期交互中日益普及,累积记忆对实现个性化和保持风格一致性至关重要。然而,现有系统大多采用‘全有或全无’的记忆策略:完全依赖过去信息会导致‘记忆锚定’,使智能体被困于过往互动;而完全忽略记忆则造成资源浪费和历史信息丢失。本文首次将智能体对记忆的依赖建模为可显式控制的维度。我们提出行为度量来量化历史交互对当前输出的影响,并设计了可调节记忆智能体框架SteeM,支持用户在‘全新开始’(促进创新)到‘高保真模式’(严格遵循历史)之间动态调节记忆依赖。跨多种场景的实验表明,该方法持续优于传统提示和固定记忆掩码策略,为个性化人机协作提供更精细有效的控制。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

As LLM-based agents are increasingly used in long-term interactions, cumulative memory is critical for enabling personalization and maintaining stylistic consistency. However, most existing systems adopt an ``all-or-nothing'' approach to memory usage: incorporating all relevant past information can lead to \textit{Memory Anchoring}, where the agent is trapped by past interactions, while excluding memory entirely results in under-utilization and the loss of important interaction history. We show that an agent's reliance on memory can be modeled as an explicit and user-controllable dimension. We first introduce a behavioral metric of memory dependence to quantify the influence of past interactions on current outputs. We then propose \textbf{Stee}rable \textbf{M}emory Agent, \texttt{SteeM}, a framework that allows users to dynamically regulate memory reliance, ranging from a fresh-start mode that promotes innovation to a high-fidelity mode that closely follows interaction history. Experiments across different scenarios demonstrate that our approach consistently outperforms conventional prompting and rigid memory masking strategies, yielding a more nuanced and effective control for personalized human-agent collaboration.
