Overview of the NLPCC 2026 Shared Task 11: Agent-Based Experiment Reproduction from Scientific Papers
Hanhua Hong, Yizhi Li, Luu Gia Huy +3
Reproducibility is essential to scientific progress, yet the growing volume and complexity of scientific publications make exhaustive manual verification increasingly impractical.…
FinanceComplexQA: Benchmarking Agentic Reasoning on Industrial-grade Financial Documents
Xianfu Cheng, Shiwei Zhang, Jiyu Zhao +10
Agentic Reasoning has become a transformative force in financial analysis due to its ability to integrate large-scale information and generate reliable and accurate content. Howeve…
HyperTool: Beyond Step-Wise Tool Calls for Tool-Augmented Agents
Yaxin Du, Yifan Zhou, Yujie Ge +7
Tool-augmented LLM agents commonly rely on step-wise atomic tool calls, where each invocation, observation, and value transfer is exposed in the main reasoning trace. This creates…
A Self-Evolving Framework for Efficient Terminal Agents via Observational Context Compression
Jincheng Ren, Siwei Wu, Yizhi Li +8
As terminal agents scale to long-horizon, multi-turn workflows, a key bottleneck is not merely limited context length, but the accumulation of noisy terminal observations in the in…
AFM: An Adaptive Agent Foundation Model for Tool-Aware Hybrid Reasoning
Qianben Chen, Jingyi Cao, Jiayu Zhang +12
Large language models split into two families: reasoning-centric LLMs, which strengthen internal chain-of-thought reasoning but cannot invoke external tools, and agentic LLMs, whic…
M3TQA: Massively Multilingual Multitask Table Question Answering
Daixin Shu, Jian Yang, Zhenhe Wu +11
Tabular data is a fundamental component of real-world information systems, yet most research in table understanding remains confined to English, leaving multilingual comprehension…
Chain-of-Agents: End-to-End Agent Foundation Models via Multi-Agent Distillation and Agentic RL
Weizhen Li, Jianbo Lin, Zhuosong Jiang +27
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) and multi-agent systems have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in complex problem-solving tasks such as deep research, vibe codin…
IFEvalCode: Controlled Code Generation
Jian Yang, Wei Zhang, Shukai Liu +9
Code large language models (Code LLMs) have made significant progress in code generation by translating natural language descriptions into functional code; however, real-world appl…
Efficient Agents: Building Effective Agents While Reducing Cost
Ningning Wang, Xavier Hu, Pai Liu +11
The remarkable capabilities of Large Language Model (LLM)-driven agents have enabled sophisticated systems to tackle complex, multi-step tasks, but their escalating costs threaten…
OAgents: An Empirical Study of Building Effective Agents
He Zhu, Tianrui Qin, King Zhu +21
Recently, Agentic AI has become an increasingly popular research field. However, we argue that current agent research practices lack standardization and scientific rigor, making it…
TaskCraft: Automated Generation of Agentic Tasks
Dingfeng Shi, Jingyi Cao, Qianben Chen +14
Agentic tasks, which require multi-step problem solving with autonomy, tool use, and adaptive reasoning, are becoming increasingly central to the advancement of NLP and AI. However…
Scaling Test-time Compute for LLM Agents
King Zhu, Hanhao Li, Siwei Wu +12
Scaling test time compute has shown remarkable success in improving the reasoning abilities of large language models (LLMs). In this work, we conduct the first systematic explorati…
