New framework recasts language model memory eviction as estimation problem

Researchers have introduced a new framework for managing working memory in language models, viewing eviction decisions as an estimation problem. This approach, termed 'Eviction as Estimation,' aims to optimize memory usage by considering the likelihood of future reuse for stored items. A proposed policy, RMM, acts as a generalization of existing methods like StreamingLLM and H2O, performing comparably on standard benchmarks but showing potential advantages when memory reuse is more predictable and endogenous.

    Eviction as Estimation: A Fixed-Lag Smoothing View of Test-Time Memory, and When Measuring Beats Accumulating

    arXiv:2607.24667v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A language model with a bounded working memory must repeatedly decide which stored items to keep. Every deployed method decides the moment an item arrives, from the past (StreamingLLM, H2O) or from a guess about the future (SnapKV).…
