• Abstract summary: This study introduces a novel framework, COmpressive Memory-Enhanced Dialogue sYstems (COMEDY), which eschews traditional retrieval modules and memory databases. Central to COMEDY is the concept of compressive memory, which intergrates session-specific summaries, user-bot dynamics, and past events into a concise memory format.

• Abstract: Existing retrieval-based methods have made significant strides in maintaining long-term conversations. However, these approaches face challenges in memory database management and accurate memory retrieval, hindering their efficacy in dynamic, real-world interactions. This study introduces a novel framework, COmpressive Memory-Enhanced Dialogue sYstems (COMEDY), which eschews traditional retrieval modules and memory databases. Instead, COMEDY adopts a "One-for-All" approach, utilizing a single language model to manage memory generation, compression, and response generation. Central to this framework is the concept of compressive memory, which intergrates session-specific summaries, user-bot dynamics, and past events into a concise memory format. To support COMEDY, we curated a large-scale Chinese instruction-tuning dataset, Dolphin, derived from real user-chatbot interactions. Comparative evaluations demonstrate COMEDY's superiority over traditional retrieval-based methods in producing more nuanced and human-like conversational experiences.

  A promising avenue for memory augmentation is through the use of augmented reality head-mounted displays to capture and preserve egocentric videos. The current technology lacks the capability to encode and store such large amounts of data efficiently. We propose a memory augmentation agent that involves leveraging natural language encoding for video data and storing them in a vector database.
