Self-Aware Recursively Self-Improving Agents for Personal Singularity: A Goal-, Scope-, Tool-, and Benchmark-Driven Multi-Agent Architecture

Large language model (LLM) agents can plan, use tools, maintain memory, and execute long-horizon tasks. This paper proposes Self-Aware Recursively Self-Improving (SARSI) agents: governed agents that maintain a persistent self-model of identity, goals, capabilities, limitations, uncertainty, relationships, history, and developmental change, and use that model to guide and evaluate recursive improvement. Self-awareness is defined functionally and does not imply subjective experience or phenomenal consciousness. We pair SARSI agents with personal singularity, a bounded human-AI co-development objective in which an agent ecosystem helps a user approach an expanding, user-defined feasible capability frontier. Each agent has a goal contract, bounded scope, validated tool registry, tool tests, end-to-end benchmarks, owner-controlled autonomy, routing, memory, self-model, and improvement policy. A scope router assigns every accepted task to one accountable primary agent and transfers out-of-scope work through structured handoffs. A user-facing Auto-Index selects interactive, hybrid, autonomous, or scheduled behavior without overriding external permissions. The architecture combines a planner-executor-verifier loop, an evidence-gated improvement loop, an external governance plane, decentralized lineages, an owner-directed agent foundry, and a Personal Singularity OS coordinating working, computational-imaging, work-process-learning, and personal-learning agents. We formalize functional self-awareness, scope, routing, improvement acceptance, bounded goal evolution, tool-first execution, and human capability transfer, and provide safety invariants, benchmark design, and a staged implementation roadmap. This is a position and systems-design paper, not evidence that consciousness, unrestricted recursive self-improvement, or personal singularity has been achieved.

Training-Time Optical Priors for Wireless Capsule Endoscopy Classification: Hemoglobin-Aware Input Fusion with Cross-Vendor Evaluation

Gastrointestinal cancers cause approximately 3.4 million deaths annually, and early small-bowel lesions are easily missed at wireless capsule endoscopy (WCE). RGB-trained WCE classifiers conflate hemoglobin contrast with bile staining and illumination falloff, limiting sensitivity to small-vessel vascular findings such as Lymphangiectasia. We introduce a physics-informed framework that injects an analytic, Monte-Carlo-inspired hemoglobin prior into a standard classifier purely at training time -- to our knowledge the first use of an explicit optical light-transport prior in WCE classification. On Kvasir-Capsule (47,238 frames, 43 patients, 11 evaluable classes; patient-disjoint split) we evaluate, across six seeds against an RGB-only EfficientNet-B0 baseline, a five-channel input-fusion variant feeding the prior alongside RGB, a distillation variant that runs on plain three-channel RGB at inference, and a three-stream extension adding a temporal Transformer and an autoencoder-residual stream; we replicate across ResNet-18 and ConvNeXt-Tiny and assess cross-vendor zero-shot transfer on the public Galar cohort. Input fusion lifts cross-seed macro-AUC from 0.760 to 0.783 (5/6 seeds positive); distillation reaches 0.773; the three-stream model reaches 0.804 (+0.044 over baseline, paired DeLong p < 0.0001). Lymphangiectasia AUC rises from 0.238 to 0.337, sign-consistent across all six seeds. A four-variant ablation reveals a parameterization-mechanism boundary: only the spatial-channel form lifts. Cross-vendor zero-shot on Galar retains about 60% of the lift. The distillation variant deploys on plain RGB with a free interpretability heatmap, and we release GalKva-2026, a paired cross-vendor benchmark.

Designing Any Imaging System from Natural Language: Agent-Constrained Composition over a Finite Primitive Basis

Designing a computational imaging system -- selecting operators, setting parameters, validating consistency -- requires weeks of specialist effort per modality, creating an expertise bottleneck that excludes the broader scientific community from prototyping imaging instruments. We introduce spec.md, a structured specification format, and three autonomous agents -- Plan, Judge, and Execute -- that translate a one-sentence natural-language description into a validated forward model with bounded reconstruction error. A design-to-real error theorem decomposes total reconstruction error into five independently bounded terms, each linked to a corrective action. On 6 real-data modalities spanning all 5 carrier families, the automated pipeline matches expert-library quality (98.1 +/- 4.2%). Ten novel designs -- composing primitives into chains from 3D to 5D -- demonstrate compositional reach beyond any single-modality tool.

A Judge Agent Closes the Reliability Gap in AI-Generated Scientific Simulation

Large language models can generate scientific simulation code, but the generated code silently fails on most non-textbook problems. We show that classical mathematical validation -- well-posedness, convergence, and error certification -- can be fully automated by a Judge Agent, reducing the silent-failure rate from 42% to 1.5% across 134 test cases spanning 12 scientific domains. The headline result comes from a prospective benchmark: 72 blinded tasks submitted by 12 independent scientists yield an 89% success rate (95% CI: [80%, 95%]) with automated error bounds, versus 53% without the Judge. On clinical CT (the only powered experiment, n = 200), the pipeline reaches 99% of expert quality. The residual 1.5% concentrates at bifurcation points where certifiability breaks down. We formalize this boundary through the simulability class S and introduce spec.md, a structured specification format that makes any scientific computation problem machine-readable and solver-independent. Code, data, and all 72 benchmark tasks are publicly archived.

Eleven Primitives and Three Gates: The Universal Structure of Computational Imaging

Computational imaging systems -- from coded-aperture cameras to cryo-electron microscopes -- span five carrier families yet share a hidden structural simplicity. We prove that every imaging forward model decomposes into a directed acyclic graph over exactly 11 physically typed primitives (Finite Primitive Basis Theorem) -- a sufficient and minimal basis that provides a compositional language for designing any imaging modality. We further prove that every reconstruction failure has exactly three independent root causes: information deficiency, carrier noise, and operator mismatch (Triad Decomposition). The three gates map to the system lifecycle: Gates 1 and 2 guide design (sampling geometry, carrier selection); Gate 3 governs deployment-stage calibration and drift correction. Validation across 12 modalities and all five carrier families confirms both results, with +0.8 to +13.9 dB recovery on deployed instruments. Together, the 11 primitives and 3 gates establish the first universal grammar for designing, diagnosing, and correcting computational imaging systems.

InverseNet: Benchmarking Operator Mismatch and Calibration Across Compressive Imaging Modalities

State-of-the-art EfficientSCI loses 20.58 dB when its assumed forward operator deviates from physical reality in just eight parameters, yet no existing benchmark quantifies operator mismatch, the default condition in deployed compressive imaging systems. We introduce InverseNet, the first cross-modality benchmark for operator mismatch, spanning CASSI, CACTI, and single-pixel cameras. Evaluating 12 methods under a four-scenario protocol (ideal, mismatched, oracle-corrected, blind calibration) across 27 simulated scenes and 9 real hardware captures, we find: (1) deep learning methods lose 10-21 dB under mismatch, eliminating their advantage over classical baselines; (2) performance and robustness are inversely correlated across modalities (Spearman r_s = -0.71, p < 0.01); (3) mask-oblivious architectures recover 0% of mismatch losses regardless of calibration quality, while operator-conditioned methods recover 41-90%; (4) blind grid-search calibration recovers 85-100% of the oracle bound without ground truth. Real hardware experiments confirm that simulation trends transfer to physical data. Code will be released upon acceptance.

The Finite Primitive Basis Theorem for Computational Imaging: Formal Foundations of the OperatorGraph Representation

Computational imaging forward models, from coded aperture spectral cameras to MRI scanners, are traditionally implemented as monolithic, modality-specific codes. We prove that every forward model in a broad, precisely defined operator class Cimg (encompassing clinical, scientific, and industrial imaging modalities, both linear and nonlinear) admits an epsilon-approximate representation as a typed directed acyclic graph (DAG) whose nodes are drawn from a library of exactly 11 canonical primitives: Propagate, Modulate, Project, Encode, Convolve, Accumulate, Detect, Sample, Disperse, Scatter, and Transform. We call this the Finite Primitive Basis Theorem. The proof is constructive: we provide an algorithm that, given any H in Cimg, produces a DAG G with relative operator error at most epsilon and graph complexity within prescribed bounds. We further prove that the library is minimal: removing any single primitive causes at least one modality to lose its epsilon-approximate representation. A systematic analysis of nonlinearities in imaging physics shows they fall into two structural categories: pointwise scalar functions (handled by Transform) and self-consistent iterations (unrolled into existing linear primitives). Empirical validation on 31 linear modalities confirms eimg below 0.01 with at most 5 nodes and depth 5, and we provide constructive DAG decompositions for 9 additional nonlinear modalities. These results establish mathematical foundations for the Physics World Model (PWM) framework.

Ensemble learning priors unfolding for scalable Snapshot Compressive Sensing

Snapshot compressive imaging (SCI) can record the 3D information by a 2D measurement and from this 2D measurement to reconstruct the original 3D information by reconstruction algorithm. As we can see, the reconstruction algorithm plays a vital role in SCI. Recently, deep learning algorithm show its outstanding ability, outperforming the traditional algorithm. Therefore, to improve deep learning algorithm reconstruction accuracy is an inevitable topic for SCI. Besides, deep learning algorithms are usually limited by scalability, and a well trained model in general can not be applied to new systems if lacking the new training process. To address these problems, we develop the ensemble learning priors to further improve the reconstruction accuracy and propose the scalable learning to empower deep learning the scalability just like the traditional algorithm. What's more, our algorithm has achieved the state-of-the-art results, outperforming existing algorithms. Extensive results on both simulation and real datasets demonstrate the superiority of our proposed algorithm. The code and models will be released to the public.

Adaptive Deep PnP Algorithm for Video Snapshot Compressive Imaging

Video Snapshot compressive imaging (SCI) is a promising technique to capture high-speed videos, which transforms the imaging speed from the detector to mask modulating and only needs a single measurement to capture multiple frames. The algorithm to reconstruct high-speed frames from the measurement plays a vital role in SCI. In this paper, we consider the promising reconstruction algorithm framework, namely plug-and-play (PnP), which is flexible to the encoding process comparing with other deep learning networks. One drawback of existing PnP algorithms is that they use a pre-trained denoising network as a plugged prior while the training data of the network might be different from the task in real applications. Towards this end, in this work, we propose the online PnP algorithm which can adaptively update the network's parameters within the PnP iteration; this makes the denoising network more applicable to the desired data in the SCI reconstruction. Furthermore, for color video imaging, RGB frames need to be recovered from Bayer pattern or named demosaicing in the camera pipeline. To address this challenge, we design a two-stage reconstruction framework to optimize these two coupled ill-posed problems and introduce a deep demosaicing prior specifically for video demosaicing which does not have much past works instead of using single image demosaicing networks. Extensive results on both simulation and real datasets verify the superiority of our adaptive deep PnP algorithm.
