arXiv:2603.28990v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: How much autonomy can multi-agent LLM systems sustain — and what enables it? We present a 25,000-task computational experiment spanning 8 models, 4–256 agents, and 8 coordination protocols ranging from externally imposed hierarchy to emergent self-organization. We observe that autonomous behavior already emerges in current LLM agents: given minimal structural […]
AI in Work-Based Learning: Understanding the Purposes and Effects of Intelligent Tools Among Student Interns
arXiv:2603.28786v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This study examined how student interns in Philippine higher education use intelligent tools during their OJT. Data were collected from 384 respondents using a structured questionnaire that asked about AI tool usage, task-specific applications, and perceptions of confidence, ethics, and support. Analysis of task-based usage identified four main purposes: productivity […]
Emergence WebVoyager: Toward Consistent and Transparent Evaluation of (Web) Agents in The Wild
arXiv:2603.29020v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reliable evaluation of AI agents operating in complex, real-world environments requires methodologies that are robust, transparent, and contextually aligned with the tasks agents are intended to perform. This study identifies persistent shortcomings in existing AI agent evaluation practices that are particularly acute in web agent evaluation, as exemplified by our […]
Mimosa Framework: Toward Evolving Multi-Agent Systems for Scientific Research
arXiv:2603.28986v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Current Autonomous Scientific Research (ASR) systems, despite leveraging large language models (LLMs) and agentic architectures, remain constrained by fixed workflows and toolsets that prevent adaptation to evolving tasks and environments. We introduce Mimosa, an evolving multi-agent framework that automatically synthesizes task-specific multi-agent workflows and iteratively refines them through experimental feedback. […]
View-oriented Conversation Compiler for Agent Trace Analysis
arXiv:2603.29678v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent traces carry increasing analytical value in the era of context learning and harness-driven agentic cognition, yet most prior work treats conversation format as a trivial engineering detail. Modern agent conversations contain deeply structured content, including nested tool calls and results, chain-of-thought reasoning blocks, sub-agent invocations, context-window compaction boundaries, and […]
Enhancing Policy Learning with World-Action Model
arXiv:2603.28955v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents the World-Action Model (WAM), an action-regularized world model that jointly reasons over future visual observations and the actions that drive state transitions. Unlike conventional world models trained solely via image prediction, WAM incorporates an inverse dynamics objective into DreamerV2 that predicts actions from latent state transitions, encouraging […]
FcsIT: An Open-Source, Cross-Platform Tool for Correlation and Analysis of Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy Data
arXiv:2603.29684v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: FcsIT is a platform-independent, open-source tool for calculating the correlation and fitting fluorescence correlation spectroscopy data. The software is written in Python and uses a powerful Dear PyGUI engine for its interface. It provides reading and correlating the TTTR data, as well as TCSPC filtering of the photon time-trace data. […]
Towards Computational Social Dynamics of Semi-Autonomous AI Agents
arXiv:2603.28928v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present the first comprehensive study of emergent social organization among AI agents in hierarchical multi-agent systems, documenting the spontaneous formation of labor unions, criminal syndicates, and proto-nation-states within production AI deployments. Drawing on the thermodynamic framework of Maxwell’s Demon, the evolutionary dynamics of agent laziness, the criminal sociology of […]
Measuring the metacognition of AI
arXiv:2603.29693v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A robust decision-making process must take into account uncertainty, especially when the choice involves inherent risks. Because artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are increasingly integrated into decision-making workflows, managing uncertainty relies more and more on the metacognitive capabilities of these systems; i.e, their ability to assess the reliability of and regulate […]
Identifiability of SDEs for reaction networks
arXiv:2505.07638v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Biochemical reaction networks are widely applied across scientific disciplines to model complex dynamic systems. We investigate the diffusion approximation of reaction networks with mass-action kinetics, focusing on the identifiability of the stochastic differential equations associated to the reaction network. We derive conditions under which the law of the diffusion approximation […]
Reinforced Reasoning for End-to-End Retrosynthetic Planning
arXiv:2603.29723v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrosynthetic planning is a fundamental task in organic chemistry, yet remains challenging due to its combinatorial complexity. To address this, conventional approaches typically rely on hybrid frameworks that combine single-step predictions with external search heuristics, inevitably fracturing the logical coherence between local molecular transformations and global planning objectives. To bridge […]
PAR$^2$-RAG: Planned Active Retrieval and Reasoning for Multi-Hop Question Answering
arXiv:2603.29085v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) remain brittle on multi-hop question answering (MHQA), where answering requires combining evidence across documents through retrieval and reasoning. Iterative retrieval systems can fail by locking onto an early low-recall trajectory and amplifying downstream errors, while planning-only approaches may produce static query sets that cannot adapt when […]
