arXiv:2609.04651v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper studies adaptive recommendation under intent drift, where feedback from each recommendation outcome can reveal whether the relational evidence used for ranking is useful, missing, or misleading. While Knowledge Graphs (KGs) provide essential semantic structure to handle these shifts, traditional KG-enhanced systems treat the graph as a static retrieval substrate, making it brittle to evolving intents, noisy metadata, and recurring failure patterns. This paper proposes CGM-Rec, a continual graph memory framework for adaptive recommendation. CGM-Rec treats the graph state as a writable memory and maintains two complementary components. Therein, a Semantic Graph Memory is updated conservatively through quality-gated typed operations for storing stable and high-confidence relational knowledge. Meanwhile, an Episodic Lesson Memory acts as a fast reactive memory that learns recent outcomes, failure cases, and corrective hints. During testing, model parameters remain frozen and adaptation occurs only through memory writes. We evaluate CGM-Rec under a frozen-parameter, one-pass reranking protocol, where encoders and prompts remain fixed during testing and adaptation occurs only through memory writes. Experiments across multiple recommendation settings show that CGM-Rec improves over evaluated neural and LLM-based baselines on most metrics. Particularly, under sampled-candidate reranking, CGM-Rec improves HR@1 by up to 29.58% over the strongest LLM baseline on Bundle, and outperforms K-RagRec on metadata-rich ML-100K with HR@5 of 0.5941 versus 0.4746.
