让AI与人类科学家协同进化,构建真实科研生态。
OmniScientist: Toward a Co-evolving Ecosystem of Human and AI Scientists
- 将科研协作机制嵌入AI工作流,支持多智能体与人协同
- 实现从文献调研到同行评审的全流程自动化
- 适合想探索AI科研生态的学者与开发者
随着大语言模型的快速发展,AI代理在科学任务中表现出色,涵盖假说生成、实验设计到论文撰写。现有AI科学家多将科研视为孤立的搜索或优化问题,忽视了科学本质上是社会性协作过程。真实科研依赖复杂的基础设施,包括协作机制、贡献归属、同行评审和知识网络。由于缺乏对这些维度的建模,当前系统难以建立真实的科研生态或深度融入人类科学社区。为此,我们提出OmniScientist框架,将人类科研机制显式编码至AI科研流程。该框架不仅实现数据基础、文献综述、研究构想、实验自动化、科学写作及同行评审的端到端自动化,还通过模拟人类科研体系提供全面支撑:(1)基于引用网络与概念关联的结构化知识系统;(2)协作研究协议(OSP),支持多智能体与人类研究者无缝协作;(3)基于盲测双人投票与Elo排名的开放评估平台(ScienceArena)。该基础设施使代理不仅能理解并利用人类知识体系,还能协作共进,推动可持续、可扩展的创新生态系统发展。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
With the rapid development of Large Language Models (LLMs), AI agents have demonstrated increasing proficiency in scientific tasks, ranging from hypothesis generation and experimental design to manuscript writing. Such agent systems are commonly referred to as "AI Scientists." However, existing AI Scientists predominantly formulate scientific discovery as a standalone search or optimization problem, overlooking the fact that scientific research is inherently a social and collaborative endeavor. Real-world science relies on a complex scientific infrastructure composed of collaborative mechanisms, contribution attribution, peer review, and structured scientific knowledge networks. Due to the lack of modeling for these critical dimensions, current systems struggle to establish a genuine research ecosystem or interact deeply with the human scientific community. To bridge this gap, we introduce OmniScientist, a framework that explicitly encodes the underlying mechanisms of human research into the AI scientific workflow. OmniScientist not only achieves end-to-end automation across data foundation, literature review, research ideation, experiment automation, scientific writing, and peer review, but also provides comprehensive infrastructural support by simulating the human scientific system, comprising: (1) a structured knowledge system built upon citation networks and conceptual correlations; (2) a collaborative research protocol (OSP), which enables seamless multi-agent collaboration and human researcher participation; and (3) an open evaluation platform (ScienceArena) based on blind pairwise user voting and Elo rankings. This infrastructure empowers agents to not only comprehend and leverage human knowledge systems but also to collaborate and co-evolve, fostering a sustainable and scalable innovation ecosystem.
