ConvMemory v2: A Recall-Preserving Top-10 Evidence Reranker for Conversational Memory Retrieval

arXiv:2606.10842v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We describe ConvMemory v2, an opt-in token-evidence reranker that sits after the lightweight ConvMemory v1 reranker and reorders only v1's protected top-10 candidate set. v2 is a fine-tuned ms-marco-MiniLM-L-6-v2 cross-encoder (22,713,601 parameters, measured from the released checkpoint) applied to the ten (query, memory) pairs that v1 has already selected; it does not change which ten memories are returned, so Recall@10 and Hit@10 are identical to v1 by construction, not by statistical coincidence.
