Adaptive and Resilient Dual-Layer Resource Slicing for Hovering Aerial Backhaul Networks

Abstract

This paper investigates adaptive and resilient dual-layer resource slicing in hovering aerial agent (HAA)-assisted backhaul networks for heterogeneous 5G/6G services, including enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), ultra-reliable and low-latency communications (URLLC), and massive machine-type communications (mMTC). To address the complex coupling of this dual-layer architecture in non-stationary environments, we propose the resilient adaptive priority orchestration enhanced twin delayed deep deterministic policy gradient (RAPO-TD3) framework. We introduce a novel double soft-max projection mechanism to map the continuous action space into physically feasible bandwidth distributions, ensuring strict constraint adherence. Additionally, a resilient adaptive priority orchestration (RAPO) mechanism is embedded to safeguard mission-critical URLLC latency. Crucially, we establish a rigorous mathematical foundation proving that our framework ensures Lipschitz continuity and satisfies the Robbins-Monro conditions for stable asymptotic convergence. Extensive simulations under non-stationary traffic demonstrate that our RAPO-TD3 framework achieves superior performance relative to PPO, DDPG, and traditional solvers. Notably, via the RAPO mechanism, our approach maintains URLLC satisfaction levels closely approaching theoretical optima even during 500% demand surges. Furthermore, scalability evaluations indicate that sub-millisecond execution latencies strictly satisfy the 1 ms URLLC budget, demonstrating the performance efficacy of our proposed framework.

From Evidence to Effect: Authority Semantics and Runtime Infrastructure for Stateful Agents

Stateful agents reuse artifacts after producing executions and permissions change. We formalize authority-sufficient observations and durable effects bound to execution and material identities. WTB implements this interface through runtime adapters, shared evidence, and transactional publication/recovery. Six study families separate the mechanism from its integration. Raw and typed evidence both solve 32/32 authority cases, with model-dependent planning effects. Fixed-intent enforcement blocks six unsafe proposals and executes 12 eligible authorized intents. Complete controls match WTB's capability. Paid integration yields 176/210 accepted benchmark-source stages, including 19/30 publication stages, recovery on 8/8 primary SWE repositories, and the most complete continuous trajectories on each of three source tasks. The findings connect authority information, effect admission, and infrastructure reuse in stateful agents.

Scores Alone Do Not Prove Discovery: The Discovery Certification Protocol for Auditing AI Research Agents

AI research agents combine public information and experimental feedback to produce measurable results. The Discovery Certification Protocol (DCP) turns an outcome claim into an executable audit under a registered model, information boundary, and budget. Gate 1 validates useful improvement. Gate 2 tests recovery by matched agents given the starting information and observed Web content, with run history and new measurements withheld. Core requires adequate registered controls, zero recoveries, and a finite-sample recovery bound. Optional Gate 3 compares truthful and neutral feedback from a shared checkpoint; Evidence adds a supported effect and a null-policy equivalence check. Controlled SQLite and virtual catalyst audits pass both decision kernels. On real-data response surfaces, Yacht and Ionosphere pass the Core kernel after zero recoveries in 96 attempts, with an upper bound of 0.0468. Each target combines ten observed utilities and six predictions into a 16-entry data product. Yacht scores 0.7677 on reconstruction of all 32 switch effects, with utility-prediction MAE 0.0315 on its six unmeasured configurations. Fresh truthful continuations recover the target level in 9/30 and 16/30 trials, respectively, separating achieved utility from process repeatability. A deterministic verifier reproduces these local decisions from frozen records.

MASTraceBench: Diagnosing Collaboration Gains through Proposal Trajectories in LLM-Based Multi-Agent Systems

LLM-based multi-agent systems (MAS) have shown promise in complex problem solving. As MAS methods diversify, systematic evaluation becomes increasingly challenging. However, existing benchmarks largely focus on final outcomes, leaving unclear how collaboration gains arise, are preserved, or are lost. To address this limitation, we introduce MASTraceBench, a benchmark for diagnosing collaboration gains through proposal trajectories in MAS. Across six cooperative and competitive tasks, MASTraceBench tracks and grades proposal trajectories and provides a multi-layer metric suite covering Task Score, Collaboration Gain, proposal-trajectory indicators, and Token Cost. Using MASTraceBench, we systematically compare representative MAS methods not only by final performance, but also by how agent proposals evolve and are aggregated into the final answer. This analysis reveals a recurring pattern: final MAS answers rarely surpass the strongest initial proposal; interaction often lifts initially weaker proposals toward it, while strong initial proposals are seldom further improved and may regress. To reduce this risk, we propose CLEARS, which replaces whole-proposal exchange with claim-level evaluation across agents to guide reliable synthesis. CLEARS more often preserves or improves upon the strongest initial proposal and achieves the highest Collaboration Gain on five of the six tasks.
