Evaluating XAI Support From A Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning Policy in Human-Agent Collaboration

arXiv:2608. 06381v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Explainable AI (XAI) has shown promise for human-agent collaboration, yet results rely on hand-crafted policies in custom environments, limiting generalizability to state-of-the-art teaming research.

The Collaboration Gap: Exploration and Benchmarking of Open-World Agentic Cooperation

arXiv:2511. 02687v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The trajectory of AI development suggests that we will increasingly rely on agent-based systems powered by language models, composed of independently developed agents with different information, privileges, and tools.

Position: Explainability Research Must Prioritize Foundations over Ad-hoc Methods

arXiv:2607. 14123v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Despite the proliferation of Explainable AI (XAI) techniques -- from feature attributions to sparse autoencoders -- explanations rarely influence real-world workflows.

ProACT: Towards Breakdown-Aware Proactive Agent in Multi-User Collaboration

Conversational agents are increasingly embedded in human collaborative work, yet they remain fundamentally passive and reactive: they respond to explicit user requests rather than proactively recognizing moments when a team would benefit from timely intervention as human collaborators often do. This reactive design substantially limits the use of agents as active participants in multi-user collaboration, where disagreements, ambiguous goals, forgotten constraints, underspecified plans, discussion loops, and imbalanced participation can gradually undermine group progress.

Self-Evolving Multi-Agent Systems via Textual Backpropagation

arXiv:2506. 09046v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Leveraging multiple Large Language Models (LLMs) has proven effective for addressing complex, high-dimensional tasks, but current approaches often rely on static, manually engineered multi-agent configurations.
