大规模社会模拟对研究复杂社会现象至关重要。现有混合方法结合大语言模型(LLM)代理与数值型代理基模型(ABM),但因昂贵的内存检索和串行执行导致延迟高。为此,我们提出GASim,一种图加速的混合多智能体框架。针对由LLM驱动的核心代理,引入图优化记忆(GOM),以稀疏记忆图上的轻量级传播替代高成本的LLM检索;针对多数普通代理,采用图消息传递(GMP),通过细粒度特征聚合与图注意力网络实现并行更新,替代串行ABM执行。进一步提出熵驱动分组(EDG),利用信息熵动态识别处于信息多样区域的涌现核心代理。大量实验表明,GASim相比传统混合框架实现9.94倍端到端加速,且令牌消耗低于基准的20%,显著降低成本的同时保持与真实公众意见趋势的高度一致。代码已开源。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large-scale social simulators are essential for studying complex social patterns. Prior work explores hybrid methods to scale up simulations, combining large language models (LLM)-based agents with numerical agent-based models (ABM). However, this incurs high latency due to expensive memory retrieval and sequential ABM execution. To address this challenge, we propose GASim, a graph-accelerated hybrid multi-agent framework for large-scale social simulations. For core agents driven by LLM, GASim introduces Graph-Optimized Memory (GOM) to replace intensive LLM-based retrieval pipelines with lightweight propagation over a sparse memory graph. For the majority of ordinary agents, GASim employs Graph Message Passing (GMP), substituting sequential ABM execution with parallel updates by fine-grained feature aggregation and Graph Attention Network. We further introduce Entropy-Driven Grouping (EDG) that coordinates this hybrid partitioning, leveraging information entropy to dynamically identify emergent core agents situated in information-diverse neighborhoods. Extensive experiments show that GASim not only delivers a substantial 9.94-fold end-to-end speedup over the traditional hybrid framework but also consumes less than 20% of baseline tokens, significantly reducing costs while preserving strong alignment with real-world public opinion trends. Our code is available at https://github.com/Jasmine0201/GASim.
