Persona-Trained Monte Carlo: Estimating Market-Outcome Distributions via Swarms of Persona-Conditioned Neural Policy Bots in a Limit Order Book

arXiv:2606. 29556v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We propose Persona-Trained Monte Carlo (PTMC), a method for estimating distributions of market-outcome statistics by repeatedly simulating limit-order-book interaction among swarms of persona-conditioned neural-policy trading bots.

HiComm: Hierarchical Communication for Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning

arXiv:2606. 29126v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) often relies on communication to mitigate partial observability, yet most existing protocols treat messages as flat dense vectors detached from the structure of the observations they summarize.

ManimAgent: Self-Evolving Multimodal Agents for Visual Education

arXiv:2606. 30296v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-round reflection lets agents built on large language models recover from failures within a single task, but each task remains an isolated episode: lessons learned across many reflection rounds on one task are discarded before the next begins.

Learned Coordination Conventions in Cooperative MARL: Measuring the Translation Gap Between Theory-Informed Roles and Learned Routing

arXiv:2606. 29541v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Role-semantic assignments provide priors over how heterogeneous agents may coordinate, but cooperative MARL systems instead settle on conventions through decentralized, non-stationary learning, with no guarantee that the resulting structure matches those priors.

OSWorld2.0: Benchmarking Computer Use Agents on Long-Horizon Real-World Tasks

arXiv:2606. 29537v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing computer-use benchmarks fail to capture the realism, complexity, and long-horizon demands of real-world computer use, limiting their ability to reveal the limitations of frontier agents.

Mixture of Debaters: Learn to Debate at Architectural Level in Multi-Agent Reasoning

arXiv:2606. 29425v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing multi-agent debate frameworks suffer from two critical limitations: they rely on static architectures where agent roles and coordination patterns are fixed at design time, and they require instantiating multiple model copies, incurring substantial computational overhead.
