arXiv:2607. 07189v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) and agentic AI have shown strong performance on semantic visual tasks, but it remains unclear whether they can handle the physics and inverse problems that underlie computational imaging.

TO-Agents is a multi‑agent AI framework that translates natural‑language design intent into iterative topology optimization. It converts a human problem description into solver inputs, runs the optimizer, renders 3D topologies, and employs a judge agent to critique and revise results using multiview vision‑language reasoning. Evaluated on a cantilever beam and a phone‑stand design, the system achieved preference‑aligned designs in 60% of trials, outperforming an ablated pipeline by up to six times and enabling end‑to‑end intent‑to‑prototype design with additive manufacturing.

VortexChat is an agentic framework that autonomously performs end-to-end inverse design of integrated photonic devices from natural language specifications. It combines a large language model decision agent with topology generation, gradient-based refinement, and full-wave electromagnetic simulation in a closed-loop architecture, enabling iterative decomposition of design objectives and minimal human intervention. The system successfully generated devices meeting the Vortex100 Benchmark metrics and fabricated a broadband terahertz perfect vortex beam multiplexer that matched simulation predictions.
