REAT: A Reflective Experience-Augmented Tutoring Framework for Multi-turn Mathematical Instruction

Current Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at solving complex mathematical problems, yet this proficiency does not inherently translate into effective tutoring. While advanced LLM tutors may leverage multi-agent frameworks or fine-tuning, most still lack a mechanism to systematically accumulate and reuse pedagogical experience over time, limiting their adaptability to diverse student needs during fluid, multi-turn interactions. To bridge this gap, we propose the Reflective Experience-Augmented Tutoring (REAT) framework, which couples experience distillation from historical dialogues with real-time adaptive retrieval. Driven by a multi-agent Observer-Critic-Mentor (OCM) distillation pipeline, REAT reviews past conversational trajectories and distills raw interactions into structured, problem-agnostic pedagogical experiences. During live tutoring, a state-aware retrieval module injects these curated experiences to provide adaptive scaffolding based on the student's cognitive state. Experiments demonstrate that the proposed framework significantly outperforms both prompt-only and supervised fine-tuning (SFT) baselines, particularly in improving complex, low-scoring tutoring scenarios. Crucially, the distilled experiences exhibit robust generalization across diverse model architectures and mathematical datasets.

Introducing Multimodal Paradigm for Learning Sleep Staging PSG via General-Purpose Model

Sleep staging is essential for diagnosing sleep disorders and assessing neurological health. Existing automatic methods typically extract features from complex polysomnography (PSG) signals and train domain-specific models, which often lack intuitiveness and require large, specialized datasets. To overcome these limitations, we introduce a new paradigm for sleep staging that leverages large multimodal general-purpose models to emulate clinical diagnostic practices. Specifically, we convert raw one-dimensional PSG time-series into intuitive two-dimensional waveform images and then fine-tune a multimodal large model to learn from these representations. Experiments on three public datasets (ISRUC, MASS, SHHS) demonstrate that our approach enables general-purpose models, without prior exposure to sleep data, to acquire robust staging capabilities. Moreover, explanation analysis reveals our model learned to mimic the visual diagnostic workflow of human experts for sleep staging by PSG images. The proposed method consistently outperforms state-of-the-art baselines in accuracy and robustness, highlighting its efficiency and practical value for medical applications. The code for the signal-to-image pipeline and the PSG image dataset will be released.
