Goal-Aware Dynamic Multi-Agent Collaboration for Long-Horizon Tasks

The paper introduces Goal-Aware Dynamic Multi-Agent Collaboration (GAD), a framework that assigns distinct duties to separate agents with individualized contexts to tackle long-horizon tasks. It employs a growing execution graph to structure subtasks and their dependencies, ensuring each agent retains the original instruction, task goal, and acceptance conditions. GAD dynamically adapts collaboration and information sharing, using verification and recovery checks to monitor subtask results and overall task completion, providing feedback for repair when checks fail.

Goal-Aware Dynamic Multi-Agent Collaboration for Long-Horizon Tasks

The paper investigates how large language model agents handle long‑horizon tasks and finds that verification is crucial for success but often occurs too late. It shows that sharing a common context dilutes duty‑relevant information and that simply separating duties among agents is insufficient, as agents can lose sight of the overall goal. To address these issues, the authors propose Goal‑Aware Dynamic Multi‑Agent Collaboration (GAD), which uses an execution graph to organize subtasks, keeps each agent’s context focused on its specific goal, and dynamically adjusts task dependencies and information sharing based on execution evidence, with verification and recovery checks providing feedback for repair.

Imagine-then-Plan: Agent Learning from Adaptive Lookahead with World Models

The paper introduces Imagine-then-Plan (ITP), a framework that lets agents learn by interacting with a learned world model to generate multi-step imagined trajectories. ITP features an adaptive lookahead mechanism that balances ultimate goals with task progress, producing richer signals about future outcomes. Experiments on various benchmarks show that ITP outperforms existing baselines, and analyses suggest the adaptive lookahead improves reasoning for complex tasks.
