Memory-Aware Multi-Agent Architecture with LLM-based Orchestration for Conversational Recommendation

arXiv:2611.08718v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Conversational recommender systems often treat user sessions in isolation, limiting their ability to capture how user intent evolves over time. While large language models (LLMs) have improved semantic understanding, they are typically used as isolated components, without addressing how memory, retrieval, and decision-making should be integrated at the system level. In this work, we propose a memory-aware multi-agent architecture for conversational recommendation, in which LLMs act as orchestration layers that coordinate intent refinement, query construction, and interaction flow. A key design principle is the integration of long-term memory as a first-class component, influencing both routing decisions and semantic query formation.
