SCM: Sleep-Consolidated Memory with Algorithmic Forgetting for Large Language Models
arXiv CS.LG
•
ArXi:2604.20943v1 Announce Type: new We present SCM (Sleep-Consolidated Memory), a research preview of a memory architecture for large language models that draws on neuroscientific principles to address a fundamental limitation in current systems: the absence of persistent, structured, and biologically plausible memory. Existing approaches rely on truncating context windows, growing vector databases without bound, or tiered storage systems that lack consolidation and forgetting mechanisms.
