用大模型模拟医护机器人团队,提前发现协作故障。

Before Humans Join the Team: Diagnosing Coordination Failures in Healthcare Robot Team Simulation

  • 用大模型代理模拟医护团队角色,实现可控的协作测试。
  • 发现团队结构是协作瓶颈,而非知识或模型能力。
  • 适合关注机器人协同与人机融合的研究者和开发者。

随着人类与协调机器人团队合作的推进,理解团队如何协作及失败至关重要,以建立信任并确保安全。然而,在医疗等高风险领域,让人类参与者在早期开发阶段暴露于协作故障中既昂贵又危险。本文采用代理仿真方法,将所有团队角色(包括监督经理)均以大语言模型代理实例化,从而在人类加入前诊断协作故障。通过可控的医疗场景,我们进行了两种不同层级配置的实验,分析协作行为与故障模式。研究发现,团队结构而非上下文知识或模型能力,是协作的主要瓶颈,并揭示了推理自主性与系统稳定性之间的矛盾。通过在仿真中暴露这些故障,为安全的人类集成奠定基础。研究结果为韧性机器人团队设计提供启示,涉及流程评估、透明协作协议和结构化人机融合。补充材料(含代码、任务代理设置、追踪输出及故障标注示例)可在 https://byc-sophie.github.io/mas-to-mars/ 获取。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

As humans move toward collaborating with coordinated robot teams, understanding how these teams coordinate and fail is essential for building trust and ensuring safety. However, exposing human collaborators to coordination failures during early-stage development is costly and risky, particularly in high-stakes domains such as healthcare. We adopt an agent-simulation approach in which all team roles, including the supervisory manager, are instantiated as LLM agents, allowing us to diagnose coordination failures before humans join the team. Using a controllable healthcare scenario, we conduct two studies with different hierarchical configurations to analyze coordination behaviors and failure patterns. Our findings reveal that team structure, rather than contextual knowledge or model capability, constitutes the primary bottleneck for coordination, and expose a tension between reasoning autonomy and system stability. By surfacing these failures in simulation, we prepare the groundwork for safe human integration. These findings inform the design of resilient robot teams with implications for process-level evaluation, transparent coordination protocols, and structured human integration. Supplementary materials, including codes, task agent setup, trace outputs, and annotated examples of coordination failures and reasoning behaviors, are available at: https://byc-sophie.github.io/mas-to-mars/.
