SE-Agent: Self-Evolution Trajectory Optimization in Multi-Step Reasoning with LLM-Based Agents

Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents have recently shown impressive capabilities in complex reasoning and tool use via multi-step interactions with their environments. While these agents have the potential to tackle complicated tasks, their problem-solving process, i.e., agents' interaction trajectory leading to task completion, remains underexploited. These trajectories contain rich feedback that can navigate agents toward the right directions for solving problems correctly. Although prevailing approaches, such as Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), can effectively balance exploration and exploitation, they ignore the interdependence among various trajectories and lack the diversity of search spaces, which leads to redundant reasoning and suboptimal outcomes. To address these challenges, we propose SE-Agent, a Self-Evolution framework that enables Agents to optimize their reasoning processes iteratively. Our approach revisits and enhances former pilot trajectories through three key operations: revision, recombination, and refinement. This evolutionary mechanism enables two critical advantages: (1) it expands the search space beyond local optima by intelligently exploring diverse solution paths guided by previous trajectories, and (2) it leverages cross-trajectory inspiration to efficiently enhance performance while mitigating the impact of suboptimal reasoning paths. Through these mechanisms, SE-Agent achieves continuous self-evolution that incrementally improves reasoning quality. We evaluate SE-Agent on SWE-bench Verified to resolve real-world GitHub issues. Experimental results across five strong LLMs show that integrating SE-Agent delivers up to 55% relative improvement, achieving state-of-the-art performance among all open-source agents on SWE-bench Verified. Our code and demonstration materials are publicly available at https://github.com/JARVIS-Xs/SE-Agent.

AdaMixT: Adaptive Weighted Mixture of Multi-Scale Expert Transformers for Time Series Forecasting

Multivariate time series forecasting involves predicting future values based on historical observations. However, existing approaches primarily rely on predefined single-scale patches or lack effective mechanisms for multi-scale feature fusion. These limitations hinder them from fully capturing the complex patterns inherent in time series, leading to constrained performance and insufficient generalizability. To address these challenges, we propose a novel architecture named Adaptive Weighted Mixture of Multi-Scale Expert Transformers (AdaMixT). Specifically, AdaMixT introduces various patches and leverages both General Pre-trained Models (GPM) and Domain-specific Models (DSM) for multi-scale feature extraction. To accommodate the heterogeneity of temporal features, AdaMixT incorporates a gating network that dynamically allocates weights among different experts, enabling more accurate predictions through adaptive multi-scale fusion. Comprehensive experiments on eight widely used benchmarks, including Weather, Traffic, Electricity, ILI, and four ETT datasets, consistently demonstrate the effectiveness of AdaMixT in real-world scenarios.

RepoMaster: Autonomous Exploration and Understanding of GitHub Repositories for Complex Task Solving

The ultimate goal of code agents is to solve complex tasks autonomously. Although large language models (LLMs) have made substantial progress in code generation, real-world tasks typically demand full-fledged code repositories rather than simple scripts. Building such repositories from scratch remains a major challenge. Fortunately, GitHub hosts a vast, evolving collection of open-source repositories, which developers frequently reuse as modular components for complex tasks. Yet, existing frameworks like OpenHands and SWE-Agent still struggle to effectively leverage these valuable resources. Relying solely on README files provides insufficient guidance, and deeper exploration reveals two core obstacles: overwhelming information and tangled dependencies of repositories, both constrained by the limited context windows of current LLMs. To tackle these issues, we propose RepoMaster, an autonomous agent framework designed to explore and reuse GitHub repositories for solving complex tasks. For efficient understanding, RepoMaster constructs function-call graphs, module-dependency graphs, and hierarchical code trees to identify essential components, providing only identified core elements to the LLMs rather than the entire repository. During autonomous execution, it progressively explores related components using our exploration tools and prunes information to optimize context usage. Evaluated on the adjusted MLE-bench, RepoMaster achieves a 110% relative boost in valid submissions over the strongest baseline OpenHands. On our newly released GitTaskBench, RepoMaster lifts the task-pass rate from 40.7% to 62.9% while reducing token usage by 95%. Our code and demonstration materials are publicly available at https://github.com/QuantaAlpha/RepoMaster.

LOG-LIO2: A LiDAR-Inertial Odometry with Efficient Uncertainty Analysis

Uncertainty in LiDAR measurements, stemming from factors such as range sensing, is crucial for LIO (LiDAR-Inertial Odometry) systems as it affects the accurate weighting in the loss function. While recent LIO systems address uncertainty related to range sensing, the impact of incident angle on uncertainty is often overlooked by the community. Moreover, the existing uncertainty propagation methods suffer from computational inefficiency. This paper proposes a comprehensive point uncertainty model that accounts for both the uncertainties from LiDAR measurements and surface characteristics, along with an efficient local uncertainty analytical method for LiDAR-based state estimation problem. We employ a projection operator that separates the uncertainty into the ray direction and its orthogonal plane. Then, we derive incremental Jacobian matrices of eigenvalues and eigenvectors w.r.t. points, which enables a fast approximation of uncertainty propagation. This approach eliminates the requirement for redundant traversal of points, significantly reducing the time complexity of uncertainty propagation from $\mathcal{O} (n)$ to $\mathcal{O} (1)$ when a new point is added. Simulations and experiments on public datasets are conducted to validate the accuracy and efficiency of our formulations. The proposed methods have been integrated into a LIO system, which is available at https://github.com/tiev-tongji/LOG-LIO2.

N$^{3}$-Mapping: Normal Guided Neural Non-Projective Signed Distance Fields for Large-scale 3D Mapping

Accurate and dense mapping in large-scale environments is essential for various robot applications. Recently, implicit neural signed distance fields (SDFs) have shown promising advances in this task. However, most existing approaches employ projective distances from range data as SDF supervision, introducing approximation errors and thus degrading the mapping quality. To address this problem, we introduce N$^{3}$-Mapping, an implicit neural mapping system featuring normal-guided neural non-projective signed distance fields. Specifically, we directly sample points along the surface normal, instead of the ray, to obtain more accurate non-projective distance values from range data. Then these distance values are used as supervision to train the implicit map. For large-scale mapping, we apply a voxel-oriented sliding window mechanism to alleviate the forgetting issue with a bounded memory footprint. Besides, considering the uneven distribution of measured point clouds, a hierarchical sampling strategy is designed to improve training efficiency. Experiments demonstrate that our method effectively mitigates SDF approximation errors and achieves state-of-the-art mapping quality compared to existing approaches.

LIMOT: A Tightly-Coupled System for LiDAR-Inertial Odometry and Multi-Object Tracking

Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is critical to the implementation of autonomous driving. Most LiDAR-inertial SLAM algorithms assume a static environment, leading to unreliable localization in dynamic environments. Moreover, the accurate tracking of moving objects is of great significance for the control and planning of autonomous vehicles. This study proposes LIMOT, a tightly-coupled multi-object tracking and LiDAR-inertial odometry system that is capable of accurately estimating the poses of both ego-vehicle and objects. We propose a trajectory-based dynamic feature filtering method, which filters out features belonging to moving objects by leveraging tracking results before scan-matching. Factor graph-based optimization is then conducted to optimize the bias of the IMU and the poses of both the ego-vehicle and surrounding objects in a sliding window. Experiments conducted on the KITTI tracking dataset and self-collected dataset show that our method achieves better pose and tracking accuracy than our previous work DL-SLOT and other baseline methods. Our open-source implementation is available at https://github.com/tiev-tongji/LIMOT.

Optimization-driven Machine Learning for Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces Assisted Wireless Networks

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has been recently employed to reshape the wireless channels by controlling individual scattering elements' phase shifts, namely, passive beamforming. Due to the large size of scattering elements, the passive beamforming is typically challenged by the high computational complexity and inexact channel information. In this article, we focus on machine learning (ML) approaches for performance maximization in IRS-assisted wireless networks. In general, ML approaches provide enhanced flexibility and robustness against uncertain information and imprecise modeling. Practical challenges still remain mainly due to the demand for a large dataset in offline training and slow convergence in online learning. These observations motivate us to design a novel optimization-driven ML framework for IRS-assisted wireless networks, which takes both advantages of the efficiency in model-based optimization and the robustness in model-free ML approaches. By splitting the decision variables into two parts, one part is obtained by the outer-loop ML approach, while the other part is optimized efficiently by solving an approximate problem. Numerical results verify that the optimization-driven ML approach can improve both the convergence and the reward performance compared to conventional model-free learning approaches.

Optimization-driven Deep Reinforcement Learning for Robust Beamforming in IRS-assisted Wireless Communications

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is a promising technology to assist downlink information transmissions from a multi-antenna access point (AP) to a receiver. In this paper, we minimize the AP's transmit power by a joint optimization of the AP's active beamforming and the IRS's passive beamforming. Due to uncertain channel conditions, we formulate a robust power minimization problem subject to the receiver's signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) requirement and the IRS's power budget constraint. We propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approach that can adapt the beamforming strategies from past experiences. To improve the learning performance, we derive a convex approximation as a lower bound on the robust problem, which is integrated into the DRL framework and thus promoting a novel optimization-driven deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) approach. In particular, when the DDPG algorithm generates a part of the action (e.g., passive beamforming), we can use the model-based convex approximation to optimize the other part (e.g., active beamforming) of the action more efficiently. Our simulation results demonstrate that the optimization-driven DDPG algorithm can improve both the learning rate and reward performance significantly compared to the conventional model-free DDPG algorithm.
