From the original publisher, up to about 700 charactersarXiv:2606. 04202v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As become more widely deployed, they are increasingly expected to work alongside other AI agents rather than operating in isolation. Effective coordination in these settings requires agents to communicate, share information and make decisions under uncertainty. We introduce SMAC-Talk, a natural language extension of the StarCraft Challenge for evaluating LLM-based agents in cooperative multi-agent environments.
The environment has several key features such as decentralized control, partial observability and long-horizon decision making. …

The MEDA system utilizes large language models and symbolic regression to autonomously discover ordinary differential equations for biological systems, achieving strong structural recovery and biologically plausible models. It outperforms existing methods by integrating domain knowledge and mechanistic constraints, demonstrating effective retrieval and extrapolation capabilities.
