Personalizing LLM Agent Memory Using Biometrics

Personalized memory helps LLM agents deliver stable, tailored assistance by storing and reusing user-specific data across interactions. In multi-user scenarios, however, retrieval must consider not only semantic similarity but also whether the current requester matches the identity associated with the stored memory. We propose Bio-Memory, a biometric-aware memory architecture that conditions memory retrieval on both semantic similarity and biometric matching. Built on top of A-Mem, Bio-Memory augments each atomic memory note with a biometric embedding and uses biometric matching to form the retrieval candidate pool before semantic ranking. We evaluate Bio-Memory on LoCoMo in a 10-user shared-agent setting over 7 face benchmarks and 10 palmprint protocols. Across datasets, Bio-Memory consistently separates owner and non-owner queries. Under face-based personalization, the largest average gap reaches 27.29% / 21.15% in F1 / BLEU-1 on CALFW; under palmprint-based personalization, the corresponding gap is 25.75% / 19.22% on MS_Blue. These results support biometrics as a practical control signal for personalized memory retrieval in shared environments.

BIO-MEMART: Biometric-Aware KV Cache Memory for Multi-User LLM Agents

KV cache is evolving from a serving optimization into an external memory substrate for long-term LLM agents. In a shared multi-user deployment, however, reusable KV blocks introduce a missing access-control question: semantic relevance alone cannot determine whether a memory block is authorized for the current physical user. We propose Bio-MemArt, a biometric-aware KV-cache memory framework for multi-user LLM agents. Bio-MemArt attaches a normalized biometric template to each stored KV memory block, filters the shared memory pool with the current user's biometric probe, and then runs the original MemArt retrieval and KV reuse pipeline only inside the authorized candidate pool. This design preserves latent-space retrieval, direct cache reuse, and decoupled position encoding while adding physical-user access control to shared KV memory. We evaluate Bio-MemArt under Owner and Non-owner query conditions on long-term dialogue QA with face and palmprint benchmarks. Across face benchmarks, the average owner and non-owner biometric success rates are 95.71% and 0.86%; across palmprint benchmarks, they are 97.60% and 2.00%. In the efficiency study, average prefill tokens drop from 18,781.96 under full-context prompting to 28.57 with Bio-MemArt, showing that biometric gating preserves the low-token operating regime of KV-cache memory.

AgentSociety 2: An Integrated Research Environment for Executable Social Science

AI scientist systems are beginning to automate parts of scientific research, but social science poses a distinct challenge: its objects of inquiry are not merely datasets or laboratory protocols, but integrated social processes involving situated participants, interaction contexts, interventions, and outcomes. Yet a critical link is missing: existing systems either assist isolated research tasks or simulate agents as experimental subjects, leaving the research workflow and simulated society decoupled. Here we introduce AgentSociety 2, an Integrated Research Environment for executable social science. It couples two roles of LLM agents in the same runtime: AI social scientists that coordinate literature grounding, hypothesis generation, experiment design, simulation execution, result interpretation, and manuscript drafting; and silicon participants that generate behavioral responses within configurable social environments. This dual-role design turns hypotheses into auditable agent behaviors, environment rules, interventions, and measurements, thereby supporting an end-to-end workflow. Across seven illustrative studies spanning micro-level social-science laboratory experiments, meso-level dynamics in social media, and macro-level urban scenarios, we demonstrate its capacity to support diverse disciplinary questions, reproduce major qualitative patterns from prior studies, identify informative deviations, and enable large-scale simulations through optimized agent-environment interactions. By preserving human researchers' high-level agency while delegating procedural orchestration to agentic systems, it provides a human-in-the-loop and controllable infrastructure for next-generation computational social science, with broader applications in scalable computational social experimentation and AI-enabled social governance platforms.

EventFace: Event-Based Face Recognition via Structure-Driven Spatiotemporal Modeling

Event cameras offer a promising sensing modality for face recognition due to their inherent advantages in illumination robustness and privacy-friendliness. However, because event streams lack the stable photometric appearance relied upon by conventional RGB-based face recognition systems, we argue that event-based face recognition should model structure-driven spatiotemporal identity representations shaped by rigid facial motion and individual facial geometry. Since dedicated datasets for event-based face recognition remain lacking, we construct EFace, a small-scale event-based face dataset captured under rigid facial motion. To learn effectively from this limited event data, we further propose EventFace, a framework for event-based face recognition that integrates spatial structure and temporal dynamics for identity modeling. Specifically, we employ Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) to transfer structural facial priors from pretrained RGB face models to the event domain, thereby establishing a reliable spatial basis for identity modeling. Building on this foundation, we further introduce a Motion Prompt Encoder (MPE) to explicitly encode temporal features and a Spatiotemporal Modulator (STM) to fuse them with spatial features, thereby enhancing the representation of identity-relevant event patterns. Extensive experiments demonstrate that EventFace achieves the best performance among the evaluated baselines, with a Rank-1 identification rate of 94.19% and an equal error rate (EER) of 5.35%. Results further indicate that EventFace exhibits stronger robustness under degraded illumination than the competing methods. In addition, the learned representations exhibit reduced template reconstructability.

EvRWKV: A Continuous Interactive RWKV Framework for Effective Event-Guided Low-Light Image Enhancement

Event cameras offer significant potential for Low-light Image Enhancement (LLIE), yet existing fusion approaches are constrained by a fundamental dilemma: early fusion struggles with modality heterogeneity, while late fusion severs crucial feature correlations. To address these limitations, we propose EvRWKV, a novel framework that enables continuous cross-modal interaction through dual-domain processing, which mainly includes a Cross-RWKV Module to capture fine-grained temporal and cross-modal dependencies, and an Event Image Spectral Fusion Enhancer (EISFE) module to perform joint adaptive frequency-domain denoising and spatial-domain alignment. This continuous interaction maintains feature consistency from low-level textures to high-level semantics. Extensive experiments on the real-world SDE and SDSD datasets demonstrate that EvRWKV significantly outperforms only image-based methods by 1.79 dB and 1.85 dB in PSNR, respectively. To further validate the practical utility of our method for downstream applications, we evaluated its impact on semantic segmentation. Experiments demonstrate that images enhanced by EvRWKV lead to a significant 35.44% improvement in mIoU.
