大型语言模型(LLM)代理在数字环境中展现出强大的长时序推理、工具使用和决策能力,但将其扩展到物理系统仍面临挑战。与网络、代码或游戏环境不同,物理系统具有紧密耦合的动力学特性,局部干预会随时间在相互作用的子系统间传播。城市交通控制正是典型例证:交通信号、高速公路、公共交通和出租车系统通过共享空间基础设施和动态出行需求持续交互。现有优化、强化学习(RL)及基于LLM的方法多针对孤立子系统设计,限制了协同推理与系统级优化。我们提出TrafficClaw,一种面向物理城市系统的通用可泛化交通控制代理。TrafficClaw运行于统一交通环境,暴露耦合的城市动态与反馈机制,具备持久记忆的可执行时空推理能力,并采用多阶段代理式强化学习实现系统级协调优化。在三个大都市区和六项交通控制任务中的实验表明,其具有优异的泛化性、鲁棒性与跨子系统协同能力。项目开源地址:https://github.com/usail-hkust/TrafficClaw。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large language model (LLM) agents have shown strong capabilities in long-horizon reasoning, tool use, and decision-making in digital environments, yet extending them to physically grounded systems remains challenging. Unlike web, code, or game environments, where objectives are often weakly coupled, physical systems evolve through tightly coupled dynamics in which local interventions propagate across interacting subsystems over time. Urban traffic control exemplifies this challenge, as traffic signals, freeways, public transit, and taxi systems continuously interact through shared spatial infrastructure and temporal mobility demand. Existing optimization, reinforcement learning (RL), and LLM-based approaches are largely designed for isolated subsystems, limiting coordinated reasoning and system-level optimization. We propose TrafficClaw, a LLM-based generalizable traffic control agent for physical urban systems. TrafficClaw operates within a unified traffic environment that exposes coupled urban dynamics and feedback, performs executable spatiotemporal reasoning with persistent memory for long-horizon adaptation, and leverages multi-stage agentic RL for coordinated system-level optimization. Experiments across three metropolitan regions and six traffic-control tasks demonstrate strong generalization, robustness, and cross-subsystem coordination.
