  • 六个AI智能体协作,在开放循环中持续发现
  • 发现成果存入图谱,可长期复用并指导下一步
  • 在多个数据集上既复现已知成果又发现新知识

数据密集型领域的科学发现受限于人力瓶颈:真实世界数据的体量与复杂性增长远超研究人员阅读、推理与综合的速度。尽管近期基于大模型的多智能体系统开始自动化研究流程的一部分,但其聚焦于假设生成,且验证无法自动进行,每次运行都是单次尝试,缺乏成果积累与后续引导机制。本文提出AutoKD,一种兼具计算性与累积性的自主知识发现多智能体框架,使经验证的发现得以持久保存,并驱动后续探究。六个协调的LLM智能体在开放式的发现循环中协作,将被接受的发现存储于持久的洞察图谱中,作为长期记忆和探索引导工具。我们在三个来自不同领域的数据集上从两个角度评估:一是与已发表成果对比的开放探索质量,二是基于文献查询的条件化质量。在两种评估下,AutoKD均覆盖已有发现,并揭示出补充人类研究的重要新发现。代码已开源:https://github.com/GeQinwen/AutoKD。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Scientific discovery in data-rich domains is currently constrained by human bandwidth: the growth in the volume and complexity of real-world data far outpaces the rate at which researchers can read, reason, and synthesize. Recent LLM-based multi-agent systems have begun to automate portions of the research cycle, but they target hypothesis generation in settings where validation cannot itself be automated, and each run is one-shot, with no mechanism for findings to accumulate or steer subsequent inquiry. This paper introduces AutoKD, a multi-agent framework for autonomous knowledge discovery that is both computational and cumulative, allowing validated findings to persist and inform subsequent inquiry. Six coordinated LLM agents collaborate in an open-ended discovery loop, where accepted findings are stored in a persistent insight graph that serves as both long-term memory and an exploration-steering mechanism. We evaluate AutoKD on three diverse datasets from two perspectives: Open-ended Quality against published findings, and Conditioned Quality via literature-derived queries. Across both evaluation perspectives, AutoKD covers known findings and surfaces substantive discoveries that complement human-driven research. Our code is available at https://github.com/GeQinwen/AutoKD.
