Most training-free pruning methods score each token's "importance" from attention maps and drop the low scorers. The authors argue this approach has four weaknesses. It treats scores as fixed even after other tokens are… 2. **[StreamMeCo: Long-Term Agent Memory Compression for Efficient Streaming Video Understanding](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2026-streammeco-long-term-agent-memory/)** *(2026 · 3 citations)* Agent-based streaming video systems like M3-Agent store what they observe as a memory graph. Text nodes describe visual content, and face and voice nodes represent entities. As videos get longer, the number of text nodes grows sharply, and retrieval latency becomes too high for real-time question answering. ## Co-authors here 7 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Linfeng Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/linfeng-zhang/) ×2 - [Conghui He](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/conghui-he/) - [Qintong Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/qintong-zhang/) - [Shaobo Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shaobo-wang/) - [Weijia Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/weijia-li/) - [Xuming Hu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xuming-hu/) - [Zhiyu li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zhiyu-li/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing (EMNLP)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/): [EMNLP 2025](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/emnlp/2025/) - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/): [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 127 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [17 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zichen-wen/cited-by/).
