NeuroMAS: Multi-Agent Systems as Neural Networks with Joint Reinforcement Learning

Read the original on arXiv AI →

NeuroMAS treats a multi-agent language system as a trainable neural‑network‑like architecture, with large language model agents as nodes and textual signals as edges. The topology defines general information flow, while reinforcement learning determines how agents communicate, specialize, and coordinate, making the system role‑free but structure‑aware. Experiments show NeuroMAS outperforms both inference‑time and trained multi‑agent baselines, and that scaling larger systems is feasible when grown progressively from smaller trained systems.

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.

Rethinking Multi-Agent Collaboration: When More Is Less

The paper examines when multi‑agent collaboration is beneficial versus single‑agent approaches. It finds that collaboration yields systematic advantages mainly in long‑horizon tasks with sparse dependencies, while single agents perform better in tightly coupled, sequential workflows. The authors introduce SAIGE, a lightweight multi‑agent mechanism that models collaboration as a dynamically evolving graph, and show that it balances context efficiency and task performance without always improving outcomes as more agents are added.

Recursive Multi-Agent Systems

arXiv:2604. 25917v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recursive or looped language models have recently emerged as a new scaling axis by iteratively refining the same model computation over latent states to deepen reasoning.

Rethinking Multi-Agent Collaboration: When More Is Less

The paper examines when multi‑agent collaboration is truly beneficial as large language models grow more capable. It finds that multi‑agent systems yield systematic advantages mainly for long‑horizon tasks with sparse dependencies, while single‑agent approaches excel in tightly coupled, sequential workflows. The authors introduce SAIGE, a lightweight, graph‑based collaboration framework that balances context efficiency and performance, demonstrating that adding more agents or deeper recursion does not always improve outcomes.

SearchSwarm: Towards Delegation Intelligence in Agentic LLMs for Long-Horizon Deep Research

arXiv:2606. 09730v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are increasingly expected to handle complex, long-horizon real-world tasks whose context demands can grow without bound, yet model context windows remain inherently finite.
