摘要:
我们表明,由视觉-语言模型(VLMs)引导的多智能体系统可改进端到端自主科学发现。通过将图表视为可验证检查点,作为评判者的VLM根据动态生成的领域特定标准评估图形,使智能体能够纠正自身错误并实时引导探索性数据分析。宇宙学和天体化学领域的案例研究显示,系统可在无人干预的情况下从错误推理路径恢复并适应新数据集。在10项数据驱动发现基准任务中,VLM增强系统的“一次通过”得分达0.7-0.8,而纯代码基线为0.2-0.3、代码加文本基线为0.4-0.5,同时提供可审计的推理轨迹以提升可解释性。
英文摘要:
We show that multi-agent systems guided by vision-language models (VLMs) improve end-to-end autonomous scientific discovery. By treating plots as verifiable checkpoints, a VLM-as-a-judge evaluates figures against dynamically generated domain-specific rubrics, enabling agents to correct their own errors and steer exploratory data analysis in real-time. Case studies in cosmology and astrochemistry demonstrate recovery from faulty reasoning paths and adaptation to new datasets without human intervention. On a 10-task benchmark for data-driven discovery, VLM-augmented systems achieve pass at 1 scores of 0.7-0.8, compared to 0.2-0.3 for code-only and 0.4-0.5 for code-and-text baselines, while also providing auditable reasoning traces that improve interpretability.
