// Graph Augmented Associative Memory for Agents // Long-term memory for agents is still an unsolved problem. Flat RAG loses structural relationships, and knowledge graphs miss conversational associations. New research proposes combining both through a hierarchical approach. GAAMA is a graph-augmented associative memory that constructs a concept-mediated hierarchical knowledge graph through episode preservation, LLM-based fact extraction, and higher-order reflection synthesis. It uses four node types connected by five edge types, with retrieval combining semantic search and graph-traversal ranking. On the LoCoMo-10 benchmark, GAAMA achieves 78.9% mean reward, outperforming HippoRAG and tuned RAG baselines. Multi-session agents need memory that captures both facts and their relationships across conversations. GAAMA demonstrates that graph-augmented retrieval consistently beats semantic-only methods, and that higher-order reflections, not just raw fact storage, are key to reliable recall.
