Build Your Personalized Research Group: A Multiagent Framework for Continual and Interactive Science Automation
- 用实时推理动态调整研究流程,不依赖固定步骤。
- 支持跨会话记忆和非阻塞人工干预,实现长期科研连续性。
- 模块化设计适合不同领域,可自由增删智能体角色。
科学发现的自动化是人工智能研究的关键里程碑。现有科研智能体系统存在两大根本缺陷:预设僵化的研究流程无法响应中间发现,以及上下文管理不足导致长周期研究难以持续。我们提出 exttt{freephdlabor},一个开源多智能体框架,具备由实时智能体推理驱动的完全动态工作流,以及模块化架构,用户可按需修改、添加或移除智能体以适配特定领域需求。该框架提供完整基础设施:自动上下文压缩、基于工作区的通信机制防止信息衰减、跨会话记忆持久化,以及非阻塞式人工干预功能。这些特性共同将自动化科研从孤立的单次尝试转变为可系统积累前期成果并融入人类反馈的持续研究项目。本工作不仅提供可定制共科学家系统的架构原则与实现方案,更推动自动化科研在各科学领域的广泛应用,使研究者能部署自主完成从选题、实验到生成可投稿论文的端到端科研系统。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The automation of scientific discovery represents a critical milestone in Artificial Intelligence (AI) research. However, existing agentic systems for science suffer from two fundamental limitations: rigid, pre-programmed workflows that cannot adapt to intermediate findings, and inadequate context management that hinders long-horizon research. We present \texttt{freephdlabor}, an open-source multiagent framework featuring \textit{fully dynamic workflows} determined by real-time agent reasoning and a \coloremph{\textit{modular architecture}} enabling seamless customization -- users can modify, add, or remove agents to address domain-specific requirements. The framework provides comprehensive infrastructure including \textit{automatic context compaction}, \textit{workspace-based communication} to prevent information degradation, \textit{memory persistence} across sessions, and \textit{non-blocking human intervention} mechanisms. These features collectively transform automated research from isolated, single-run attempts into \textit{continual research programs} that build systematically on prior explorations and incorporate human feedback. By providing both the architectural principles and practical implementation for building customizable co-scientist systems, this work aims to facilitate broader adoption of automated research across scientific domains, enabling practitioners to deploy interactive multiagent systems that autonomously conduct end-to-end research -- from ideation through experimentation to publication-ready manuscripts.
