HABIT-Bench: Evaluating Habit Induction from Longitudinal Weak Evidence in Agent Memory

We introduce HABIT-Bench to evaluate how well agent memory systems infer habits from weak evidence and apply them to later requests.

Key points

  • In long-term interactions with large language model (LLM) agents, users reveal habits through their choices and actions.
  • These habits capture implicit user information that agents must infer across conversations.
  • Retaining past interactions alone does not ensure that agents can infer habits and apply them appropriately.
  • We construct synthetic user histories from task-oriented dialogue data and controlled habit graphs.
