CoWeaver：人間とAIエージェントの混合科学コラボレーションに向けた双方向的で学習可能かつ説明可能なマッチングエンジン

LLM-based agents excel at writing articles, coding and information retrieval. However, they fail to form strong collaborations within the scientific community due to the bidirectional, dynamic nature of the problem and a high demand of decision interpretability. We proposed COWEAVER, a bidirectional, learnable and explainable algorithm to match scientists and form strong collaborations within a human-agent network. COWEAVER matches candidates and requesters through filling capability gaps and filters candidates through a two-stage ranking step. Finally, the model explores newcomers by maintaining uncertainty-aware capability estimates and updating them through requester's feedback. We show that the selection mechanism of combining both exploration (UCB) and greedy of COWEAVER exceeds the greedy-only mechanism - the analytical best solution - on 6 out of the 20 tasks and performed on par with the greedy-only mechanism in terms of selecting the best candidate. We compared COWEAVER baselines in terms of matching quality and efficiency. COWEAVER outperforms baselines on all metrics.
