Mimir: Physics-Grounded LLM Agents for Long-Horizon Irrigation Control

Read the original on arXiv AI →

Mimir is a physics‑grounded large language model agent designed for long‑horizon irrigation control. It operates on two timescales: a fast scale that uses a structured physical interface and deterministic simulator to validate and refine LLM proposals before execution, and a slow scale that consolidates recurrent failure patterns into persistent contextual principles. Across multiple sites, crops, and years, Mimir achieves the lowest aggregate control cost and reduces irrigation usage by about 51% compared to historical schedules, while ablation studies confirm the importance of forward simulation, verified revision, and persistent context.

Toward Self-Adaptive Physical AI: Can LLM Agents Manage Long-Horizon Physical Tasks?

The paper investigates whether large language model (LLM) agents can autonomously manage long‑horizon physical tasks without human intervention. It proposes a multi‑agent framework that combines planning, tool calling, observation, and verification, and tests it on agricultural tasks under varying weather conditions. Results show that zero‑shot LLM agents match reinforcement learning (RL) agents in the same environment and outperform RL when the environment shifts, suggesting a viable path for self‑adaptive physical AI.
