Memory Systems
This chapter explores the memory mechanisms of agents — from short-term working memory to long-term knowledge storage, vector databases, and retrieval-augmented generation.
Contents:
- Memory Systems Survey — Classification and design principles of agent memory
- Episodic and Semantic Memory — Experience memory and knowledge memory mechanisms
- Working Memory and Context Management — Context window management and information filtering strategies
- Long-Term Memory and Vector Databases — Embeddings, vector stores, and similarity search
- RAG-Augmented Memory — Principles and practices of retrieval-augmented generation
- Memory Architecture Design — Storage tiers, retrieval efficiency, and memory update mechanisms
