保留技能字段结构能显著提升长时学习中的技能检索效果。
Field-Aware Agent Skill Retrieval

- 将技能按字段分开表示,分别计算稀疏与稠密相似度。
- 在两个基准上,场感知方法达到77.95和83.78的Recall@10。
- 尤其在技能库变大时优势更明显,适合大规模知识系统。
随着终身学习智能体积累越来越多的技能,正确检索技能成为关键瓶颈。现有方法通常将技能视为拼接后的扁平文档(如名称、描述、主体等字段)。但技能本身是多字段结构化对象,各字段提供不同使用时机与方式信息。本文研究保留这一结构是否有助于提升检索性能。我们将每个技能拆分为独立组件,对每个字段分别计算稀疏与稠密相似度,形成天然张量化的场感知表示。随后通过均匀加权或小型可学习MLP融合字段级得分。在两个基准测试SkillRet和SRA-Bench上,保持字段分离显著提升混合检索性能;使用场感知MLP获得最佳且最稳定结果:在SkillRet上达77.95 Recall@10,在SRA-Bench上达83.78 Recall@10,优于对应拼接式基线模型。我们还发现,当技能库规模增大时,该优势进一步扩大,表明场感知检索在高难度场景中尤为有效。结果表明,技能表示本身至关重要,仅保留原有技能文件中的结构即可大幅改善检索效果。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
As lifelong learning agents accumulate lifelong growing skill banks, retrieving the correct skill becomes an increasingly important bottleneck. Most current skill retrieval methods treat each skill as one flat document by concatenating fields such as the name, description, and body. However, skills are naturally structured, multi-field objects, where each field provides different information about when and how the skill should be used. In this work, we study whether preserving this structure improves skill retrieval. We represent each skill as its separate components, and compute sparse and dense similarities for each field independently, exposing a naturally tensorized, field-aware representation of the skill bank. We then combine these field-level scores either with uniform weights or with a small learned MLP. Across two different skill retrieval benchmarks, SkillRet and SRA-Bench, we find that keeping fields separate improves hybrid retrieval, and learning over the field-level scores gives the strongest and most consistent results. Our field-aware MLP reaches $77.95$ Recall@10 on SkillRet and $83.78$ Recall@10 on SRA-Bench, outperforming the corresponding concatenated learned baselines. We also find that the advantage grows as the skill bank becomes larger, suggesting that field-aware skill retrieval becomes especially useful in the setting where retrieval is most difficult. Our results show that skill representation itself matters, and that simply preserving the structure already present in skill files can substantially improve retrieval.
