MemComposer: Learning to Assemble Memories for LLM Agents via Reinforcement Learning

Yixuan Xie, Xueqiang Xu, Xinyi Fan +8

Agent memory enables large language model (LLM) agents to reuse past experiences without updating their parameters. However, semantic similarity alone does not guarantee memory use…

SMELT: Scaling Laws for Compute-Matched MoE Looped Transformers

Shaowen Wang, Ge Zhang, Kairong Luo +6

Looped Transformers increase effective depth by iterating a shared block of layers, but most evaluations compare at fixed model size, conflating architectural advantage with extra…
