Self-Improving Large Language Models via Progressive Experience Evolution

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2608. 02139v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) capable of self-improvement require not only effective policy optimization, but also a principled mechanism for transforming transient interaction experience into persistent model capabilities.

Environments as Scaffold: Enriching Feedback to Bootstrap Self-Evolving Agents in Long-Horizon Tasks

The paper introduces Feedback‑Enriched Environments (FEEs) as a new approach to training large language models as autonomous agents for long‑horizon tasks. By shifting from action guidance to observation enrichment during later stages of exploration, FEEs improve performance across SciWorld and BFCL benchmarks with various Qwen3 model scales and RL algorithms. The study shows that FEEs stabilize training, promote proactive exploration, embed environmental guidance into policy weights, and highlight intra‑group feedback consistency as key for stable optimization.

Scaling Self-Evolving Agents via Parametric Memory

arXiv:2606. 04536v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing memory-augmented LLM agents store past experience exclusively in prompt space, as textual summaries or retrieved passages, while keeping model parameters frozen throughout a rollout.
