Add to EdgeControlling Large Language Model-based Agents for Large-Scale Decision-Making: An Actor-Critic Approach
Nov 23, 2023
The significant advancements in large language models (LLMs) have presented novel opportunities for tackling planning and decision-making within multi-agent systems. However, as the number of agents increases, the issues of hallucination in LLMs and coordination in multi-agent systems (MAS) have become increasingly pronounced. Additionally, the efficient utilization of tokens becomes a critical consideration when employing LLMs to facilitate the interactions of large numbers of agents. In this paper, we present a novel framework aimed at enhancing coordination and decision-making capabilities of LLMs within large-scale multi-agent environments. Our approach draws inspiration from the actor-critic framework employed in multi-agent reinforcement learning, and we develop a modular and token-efficient solution that effectively addresses challenges presented by LLMs and MAS. Through evaluations conducted in experiments involving system resource allocation and robot grid transportation, we demonstrate the considerable advantages afforded by our proposed approach.
