MA-SAPO: Multi-Agent Reasoning for Score-Aware Prompt Optimization

Prompt optimization has become a practical way to improve the performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) without retraining. However, most existing frameworks treat evaluation as a black box, relying solely on outcome scores without explaining why prompts succeed or fail. Moreover, they involve repetitive trial-and-error refinements that remain implicit, offering limited interpretability or actionable guidance for systematic improvement. In this paper, we propose MA-SAPO: a new Multi-Agent Reasoning for Score Aware Prompt Optimization framework that links evaluation outcomes directly to targeted refinements. Specifically, in the Training Phase, multiple agents interpret evaluation scores, diagnose weaknesses, and generate concrete revision directives, which are stored as reusable reasoning assets. In the Test Phase, an analyzer agent retrieves relevant exemplars and assets for a new prompt, and a refiner agent applies evidence-based edits to improve the prompt and its response. By grounding optimization in structured reasoning, MA-SAPO ensures edits are interpretable, auditable, and controllable. Experiments on the HelpSteer1/2 benchmarks show that our framework consistently outperforms single-pass prompting, retrieval-augmented generation, and prior multi-agent methods across multiple evaluation metrics.

Toward Culturally Aligned LLMs through Ontology-Guided Multi-Agent Reasoning

Large Language Models (LLMs) increasingly support culturally sensitive decision making, yet often exhibit misalignment due to skewed pretraining data and the absence of structured value representations. Existing methods can steer outputs, but often lack demographic grounding and treat values as independent, unstructured signals, reducing consistency and interpretability. We propose OG-MAR, an Ontology-Guided Multi-Agent Reasoning framework. OG-MAR summarizes respondent-specific values from the World Values Survey (WVS) and constructs a global cultural ontology by eliciting relations over a fixed taxonomy via competency questions. At inference time, it retrieves ontology-consistent relations and demographically similar profiles to instantiate multiple value-persona agents, whose outputs are synthesized by a judgment agent that enforces ontology consistency and demographic proximity. Experiments on regional social-survey benchmarks across four LLM backbones show that OG-MAR improves cultural alignment and robustness over competitive baselines, while producing more transparent reasoning traces.

Automated Visualization Code Synthesis via Multi-Path Reasoning and Feedback-Driven Optimization

Large Language Models (LLMs) have become a cornerstone for automated visualization code generation, enabling users to create charts through natural language instructions. Despite improvements from techniques like few-shot prompting and query expansion, existing methods often struggle when requests are underspecified in actionable details (e.g., data preprocessing assumptions, solver or library choices, etc.), frequently necessitating manual intervention. To overcome these limitations, we propose VisPath: a Multi-Path Reasoning and Feedback-Driven Optimization Framework for Visualization Code Generation. VisPath handles underspecified queries through structured, multi-stage processing. It begins by using Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting to reformulate the initial user input, generating multiple extended queries in parallel to surface alternative plausible concretizations of the request. These queries then generate candidate visualization scripts, which are executed to produce diverse images. By assessing the visual quality and correctness of each output, VisPath generates targeted feedback that is aggregated to synthesize an optimal final result. Extensive experiments on MatPlotBench and Qwen-Agent Code Interpreter Benchmark show that VisPath outperforms state-of-the-art methods, providing a more reliable framework for AI-driven visualization generation.

High Pileup Particle Tracking with Object Condensation

Recent work has demonstrated that graph neural networks (GNNs) can match the performance of traditional algorithms for charged particle tracking while improving scalability to meet the computing challenges posed by the HL-LHC. Most GNN tracking algorithms are based on edge classification and identify tracks as connected components from an initial graph containing spurious connections. In this talk, we consider an alternative based on object condensation (OC), a multi-objective learning framework designed to cluster points (hits) belonging to an arbitrary number of objects (tracks) and regress the properties of each object. Building on our previous results, we present a streamlined model and show progress toward a one-shot OC tracking algorithm in a high-pileup environment.
