MoCo is a Python library that consolidates 26 model collaboration methods for language models, enabling execution, benchmarking, and comparison at scale. It includes 25 evaluation datasets across reasoning, QA, code, safety, and more, allowing users to add their own data. Experiments show that most collaboration strategies outperform non‑collaborative models in 61.0% of settings, with top methods achieving up to 25.8% improvement.

The paper introduces collaborative learning for large language models, where a single large model is replaced by smaller, heterogeneous models—called model slices—under a comparable parameter budget. By enabling prior reasoning to be reassessed across different model parameterizations and employing pyramid supervision that blends protocol distillation with step‑level supervision, the authors refine reasoning and interaction decisions during collaboration. Experiments on multi‑hop question answering, mathematical reasoning, code generation, and open‑ended constrained generation show that the trained heterogeneous models match or surpass the performance of the original large model and established multi‑agent baselines, while also achieving higher inference efficiency and exhibiting task‑specific collaboration patterns.

COMED (Controlled Model Escalation for Multi-LLM Deliberation) is a post-anchor controller that selectively engages cross-model collaboration in multi-LLM inference. It uses anchor self‑consistency, router margin, and a lightweight peer probe to accept confident answers, verify ambiguous cases, and only escalates when collaboration is likely beneficial. Experiments on medical, scientific, and general reasoning benchmarks show that COMED improves performance across 16 open‑weight settings, achieving up to +10.7 percentage points on MedQA and outperforming dense collaboration while invoking fewer models and decoded tokens.

The paper introduces DHCG, a framework that dynamically constructs hierarchical collaboration graphs for large language model–based multi‑agent systems. DHCG coordinates Planner, Worker, and Generator modules to adaptively determine the composition and scale of agents during execution, guided by feedback and action‑aware preference optimization. Experiments on code generation, mathematical reasoning, and domain‑specific tasks show DHCG surpasses static and dynamic baselines, improving performance by 2.77–8.02 points and achieving a 13.06‑point gain over single‑agent baselines.
