Consilience: Conformally Calibrated Communication Control for Hidden-Profile Multi-Agent Reasoning

Researchers propose Consilience, a framework for coordinating communication among multi-agent systems with limited information. It ensures that each conversational action is appropriate and provides a guarantee of decision accuracy. In experiments, Consilience improved performance over existing protocols, sometimes even surpassing the baseline where all agents have complete information.

It ensures that each conversational action is appropriate and provides a guarantee of decision accuracy. In experiments, Consilience improved performance over existing protocols, sometimes even surpassing the baseline where all agents have complete information. --- Why it matters: This matters to AI researchers because it addresses a fundamental challenge in multi-agent systems: how to effectively coordinate communication when each agent has limited information. Consilience's framework and results demonstrate that adaptive communication control can be more valuable than simply increasing available information. Source: https://arxiv.org/abs/2608.20564
