Fast-Slow Training uses context optimization as fast weights alongside parameter updates as slow weights to achieve up to 3x better sample efficiency, higher performance, and less catastrophic forgetting than standard RL in continual LLM learning.
Shepherd provides a reversible execution trace substrate for LLM agents that enables meta-agents to inspect and transform runs, yielding reported gains on coding and terminal benchmarks via supervision, counterfactual repair, and RL credit assignment.
MAA formalizes alignability and comparability conditions and uses differential signals, EMA accumulation, and semantic identity merging to enable cross-batch operation-level evidence accumulation, outperforming batch-level baselines in 14 of 16 settings while matching online methods.
MOCHA combines Chebyshev scalarization with exponential annealing to optimize LLM agent skills across performance and platform constraints, improving mean correctness by 7.5% over baselines on six tasks while finding more Pareto-optimal variants.
