Existing compression approaches usually need laborious data labeling, model interpolation (as in CoT-Valve), or costly RL with length penalties. 2. **[Mnemis: Dual-Route Retrieval on Hierarchical Graphs for Long-Term LLM Memory](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/tang-2026-mnemis-dual-route-retrieval-hierarchical/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* Long-running LLM agents need a memory of past conversations. Current RAG and Graph-RAG systems retrieve that memory mainly by similarity, through embeddings or BM25. This fast, "System-1" style of lookup misses evidence that is only weakly related to the query on the surface. It also struggles when a question needs a… ## Co-authors here 12 of 13 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Haizhen Huang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/haizhen-huang/) ×2 - [Weiwei Deng](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/weiwei-deng/) ×2 - [Feng Sun](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/feng-sun/) - [Haotian Xu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/haotian-xu/) - [Lei Ji](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/lei-ji/) - [Peijie Wang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/peijie-wang/) - [Qi Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/qi-zhang/) - [Xiao Liang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xiao-liang/) - [Xiao Liu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xiao-liu/) - [Xin Yu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xin-yu/) - [Yeyun Gong](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yeyun-gong/) - [Zhijiang Guo](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zhijiang-guo/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/): [ACL 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/acl/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 9 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [4 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/zihao-tang/cited-by/).
