Federated Agent Optimization

The paper introduces Federated Agent Optimization (FAO), a framework for enabling large language model agents to improve collaboratively while keeping raw data, trajectories, and private knowledge local. FAO treats agent capabilities—such as memory, tools, rewards, skills, and structured knowledge—as a multi‑objective optimization space that balances utility, privacy leakage, and communication cost. It outlines methods for abstracting, protecting, aggregating, and adapting private experience into transferable capabilities, and highlights key challenges and future research directions for trustworthy federated agent systems.
