Research Paper Overview
EgoMem: Lifelong Memory Agent for Full-duplex Omnimodal Models
Summary
EgoMem is a lifelong memory agent designed for real-time full-duplex models processing omnimodal audiovisual streams. It recognizes multiple users from raw audiovisual data, provides personalized responses, and maintains long-term knowledge of users' facts, preferences, and social relationships. EgoMem runs three asynchronous processes: user retrieval via face and voice, personalized dialog generation, and memory management that detects dialog boundaries and updates long-term memory. It achieves over 95% accuracy in retrieval and memory management and over 87% fact-consistency in personalized dialogs when integrated with RoboEgo chatbot.
