CAMeR: Keyword-Gated Hybrid Activation for Adaptive Memory Retention in LLM Agents
Large language model (LLM) agents operating over extended dialogues accumulate vast amounts of information, yet existing memory systems either retain everything indiscriminately or apply uniform forgetting heuristics that fail to distinguish relevant from irrelevant knowledge. We present CAMeR (Context-Activated Memory Reinforcement), a memory retention framework combining keyword-gated hybrid activation -- a joint symbolic (word-level Jaccard) and sub-symbolic (embedding cosine) gating mechanism -- with adaptive weight dynamics. CAMeR computes a hybrid similarity score for each memory-query pair; memories exceeding a threshold receive reinforcement while all memories undergo controlled d...
