Wrong but Useful: Trajectory Value Beyond Answer Correctness in Multi-Agent Messages

Chih-Hsuan Yang, Anjir Ahmed Chowdhury, Cheng-Hau Yang +7

Multi-agent reasoning systems often use agreement, confidence, or automated scores to decide which messages should shape a final answer. Such filtering assumes that a message likel…

AEGIS: Assay-Aware Protocol Validation and Runtime Monitoring for Open-Source Liquid Handling Robots

Priyanka V. Setty, Arvind Ramanathan, Ian Foster +1

Self-driving laboratories increasingly rely on low-cost liquid handlers such as the Opentrons OT-2, which ship without the pressure-based aspiration monitoring of Hamilton or Tecan…

Precise but Uncoupled: Reviewer Precision Does Not Guarantee Critique Uptake in Multi-Agent Math Reasoning

Chih-Hsuan Yang, Jingyan Jiang, Vikram Vasudevan +7

Many math- and science-oriented agent systems use hierarchical designs with specialized reviewer roles, assuming that a dedicated review stage should help turn wrong candidates int…
