SlideGen: Collaborative Multimodal Agents for Scientific Slide Generation

SlideGen is a collaborative vision‑language multi‑agent framework designed to generate scientific presentation slides from research papers. It assigns specialized agents to outline the presentation structure, align figures and tables with key claims, generate speaker notes, and compose editable PPTX slides using a diverse layout library. The system introduces a geometry‑aware density metric to evaluate visual clutter and demonstrates significant improvements in layout balance, content coverage, and text coherence over existing baselines on a 200‑paper benchmark.

SlideLab: Audience-Centered Scientific Slide Generation and Evaluation

SlideLab is a training‑free, multi‑agent framework that generates scientific presentations directly from research papers. It first plans a coherent narrative, then iteratively builds and refines a shared slide deck using agents for content planning, visual generation, layout refinement, and grounding verification. In a blind human preference study, SlideLab outperformed both open‑source and commercial systems on 77% of papers while using about four times fewer inference tokens than the strongest open‑source baseline. The authors also introduce ConfArena, an audience‑oriented evaluation framework that simulates a conference room and assesses presentations slide by slide, matching human system rankings and detecting issues such as falsified numbers, degraded figures, dropped slides, and shuffled slide order.

Assembling the CREW: A Collaborative Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning Framework for Automated Related Work Generation

The paper introduces CREW, a collaborative multi‑agent reinforcement learning framework that automates the generation of the Related Work Section in research papers. Unlike previous methods that follow a fixed workflow, CREW allows large language model agents to dynamically select actions—Retrieve, Disseminate, Compose, and Critique—guided by a policy trained with Independent Proximal Policy Optimization. Experiments on a standard benchmark show that CREW improves output quality and reduces token usage compared to strong baselines.
