arXiv:2606. 13835v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-based generative agents are increasingly used in urban simulators, yet it remains unclear whether they reproduce empirically realistic human mobility patterns or merely generate plausible mobility narratives.

CityReal is a modular framework that uses large language model agents to simulate human-aligned urban behavior. It models agents as intention-driven decision makers who pursue coherent mobility and activity plans, learning habits and preferences over time. By training textual adapters to align agent decisions with observed population statistics, CityReal improves realism at both micro and macro levels and can scale to tens of thousands of agents for analyzing crowd density, place popularity, mobility flows, and well‑being under various urban scenarios.

The paper introduces two minimal simulation foundations—SD-AgentFoundry-2D and SD-AgentFoundry-3D—for educational and rapid prototyping use with large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs). SD-AgentFoundry-2D offers a 2D multi‑agent environment where LLM agents move, communicate, and react to local events such as fire, while SD-AgentFoundry-3D provides a 3D digital‑twin setting where a VLM interprets first‑person images to generate natural‑language movement instructions. Both frameworks run locally on macOS, Windows, and Linux, are intentionally lightweight, and are open for modification rather than being finished applications.

arXiv:2607. 00627v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are powerful pattern-completion systems, but their default operating mode - predicting the next token from a static context - does not reliably produce persistent, manipulable representations of an external world.

SimSkill is a self‑evolving large‑language‑model agent designed for the SUMO traffic simulator. It continuously detects capability gaps, creates and solves environment‑grounded tasks, verifies solutions via an action–critic loop, and stores experiences in episodic, procedural, and semantic memory. Evaluations on two held‑out benchmarks across three LLM backbones show up to a 25‑percentage‑point improvement in verified success, with procedural and semantic memory contributing complementarily.

Large language models (LLMs) and vision-language models (VLMs) are expanding the range of behaviors that can be represented in agent-based simulations, but many contemporary platforms are difficult to...
SimSkill is a lifelong learning AI agent that uses the SUMO traffic simulator to autonomously identify gaps in its capabilities, generate and solve tasks grounded in the environment, and verify solutions through an action‑critic loop. It consolidates experience into episodic, procedural, and semantic memory without updating its backbone language model, creating a reusable library for traffic‑simulation workflows. Evaluations on two benchmarks with three different LLM backbones show that SimSkill can improve verified completion rates by up to 25 percentage points, with procedural and semantic memory contributing complementarily to performance.
