Search More, Think Less: Rethinking Long-Horizon Agentic Search for Efficiency and Generalization
Qianben Chen, Tianrui Qin, King Zhu +21
Recent deep research agents primarily improve performance by scaling reasoning depth, but this leads to high inference cost and latency in search-intensive scenarios. Moreover, gen…
Retrieval-Infused Reasoning Sandbox: A Benchmark for Decoupling Retrieval and Reasoning Capabilities
Shuangshuang Ying, Zheyu Wang, Yunjian Peng +16
Despite strong performance on existing benchmarks, it remains unclear whether large language models can reason over genuinely novel scientific information. Most evaluations score e…
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…
ACADREASON: Exploring the Limits of Reasoning Models with Academic Research Problems
Xin Gui, King Zhu, JinCheng Ren +17
In recent years, the research focus of large language models (LLMs) and agents has shifted increasingly from demonstrating novel capabilities to complex reasoning and tackling chal…
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…
