Editable Multimodal Memory with Reinforcement Learning Management for Long-Horizon Personalized Agents

This paper proposes an editable multimodal memory system for long-horizon personalized agents, utilizing a reinforcement learning-based actor-critic manager to dynamically filter, update, and evict heterogeneous evidence while maintaining preference consistency and preventing storage errors, which significantly outperforms baseline methods in recall and memory management across extensive interaction streams.

A distilled value head breaks search, but search remains an effective teacher, not a move selector: a case study in 19x19 Go

This study demonstrates that while distilling a value head from a strong Go AI can result in a calibrated but non-discriminative evaluator that breaks MCTS search performance, the search process itself remains a highly effective teacher, as training the policy to mimic MCTS visit counts yields significant strength gains despite the search failing to select better moves during inference.

VQD-CTS Prediction Model: An AI-Driven Framework for Predicting Cost-to-Serve Using Engineering Velocity, Quality, and Developer Experience

The paper introduces the VQD-CTS Prediction Model, an AI-driven ensemble regression framework that effectively predicts Cost-to-Serve (R² = 0.885) by synthesizing engineering metrics of Velocity, Quality, and Developer Experience, thereby enabling organizations to forecast budgets and optimize investments based on key drivers like code complexity and cycle time.
