EXAR: A Unified Experience-Grounded Agentic Reasoning Architecture. Bergmann, R., Brand, F., Lenz, M., & Malburg, L. In Bichindaritz, I. & Lopez, B., editors, Case-Based Reasoning Research and Development - 33rd International Conference, ICCBR 2025, Biarritz, France, June 30 - July 3, 2025, Proceedings, of Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2025. Springer.. Accepted for Publication.abstract bibtex Current AI reasoning often relies on static pipelines (like the 4R cycle from Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) or standard RetrievalAugmented Generation (RAG)) that limit adaptability. We argue it is time for a shift towards dynamic, experience-grounded agentic reasoning. This paper proposes EXAR, a new unified, experience-grounded architecture, conceptualizing reasoning not as a fixed sequence, but as a collaborative process orchestrated among specialized agents. EXAR integrates data and knowledge sources into a persistent Long-Term Memory utilized by diverse reasoning agents, which coordinate themselves via a Short-Term Memory. Governed by an Orchestrator and Meta Learner, EXAR enables flexible, context-aware reasoning strategies that adapt and improve over time, offering a blueprint for next-generation AI.
