LLM-Guided Reinforcement Learning with Representative Agents for Traffic Modeling

The paper proposes a scalable traffic modeling approach that uses a single representative large language model (LLM) agent for each homogeneous traveler group, rather than one LLM per traveler. The representative agent maintains a mixed strategy over routes, updates it daily based on positive reinforcement signals, and uses a tunable step size to adjust its strategy. This design improves scalability, stabilizes learning, and produces interpretable dynamics that reproduce realistic behavioral patterns such as the decoy effect and income‑based willingness‑to‑pay differences.

Behavior2Trip: Towards Personalized Travel Planning via User Behavior Trajectory

Behavior2Trip introduces a new task—Behavior‑Aware Travel Planning—where user preferences are inferred directly from past behavior trajectories rather than explicit instructions. The benchmark contains 11,400 Chinese travel‑planning instances, each with an average of 39.8 past behaviors across 14 attributes and 5 preference dimensions. A reinforcement‑learning agent, B2T‑Agent, leveraging behavior trajectories, external retrieval tools, and internal memory, outperforms strong baselines such as GPT‑4.1 on this challenging dataset.

Behavior2Trip: Towards Personalized Travel Planning via User Behavior Trajectory

Behavior2Trip introduces a new task—Behavior‑Aware Travel Planning—where user preferences are inferred from past behavior trajectories rather than explicit instructions. The benchmark contains 11,400 instances from a major Chinese travel platform, each with nearly 40 recorded behaviors across 14 attributes and 5 preference dimensions. A reinforcement‑learning agent, B2T‑Agent, leverages these trajectories, external retrieval tools, and internal memory, outperforming GPT‑4.1 and other baselines on the dataset.

Towards Scaling Reinforcement Learning to Massive Populations: Learning Mean-Field Representations

The paper proposes a mean‑field reinforcement learning framework that models rewards and transitions as functions of an unknown low‑dimensional aggregate statistic of a large agent population. By learning this low‑dimensional representation in an offline setting, the authors demonstrate a provable method for obtaining near‑optimal policies. Experiments on a one‑step routing game inspired by supply‑chain problems show that, with a fixed neural‑network size and optimization budget, the learned representation improves reward prediction and the quality of Nash equilibria compared to baselines that ignore population structure.

RideSkill: A Hierarchical Algorithm for Generalized Ride Sharing with LLM-Driven Automatic Evolution

RideSkill is a hierarchical algorithm for generalized ride sharing that uses large language models (LLMs) to automatically design and train a skill repository, a combiner, and a repositioner. The combiner assigns vehicle-specific skills for adaptive dispatch across varying scenarios and objectives, while the repositioner moves idle vehicles to emerging regions to avoid conflicts. By training all components via an LLM-based evolutionary method, RideSkill eliminates the need for real-time LLM calls, enabling high-performance deployment in large-scale systems.

DeliveryGym: An RL Environment for Long-Horizon Embodied Agent Planning with Adaptive Curriculum

DeliveryGym is a 3D reinforcement learning environment that simulates continuous courier shifts, integrating multimodal tool interaction and persistent world dynamics to compute trajectory rewards based on simulator events. It provides feedback on resource consumption—time, energy, and money—across entire delivery trajectories, enabling agents to learn planning that balances immediate task success with long‑term constraints. The environment also adapts future training shifts to a policy’s weaknesses while keeping evaluation fixed, demonstrating that both learning from complete shifts and targeted training improve agent performance on complex delivery tasks.
