Co-Evolving Agents: Learning from Failures as Hard Negatives

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2511.22254v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Self-evolving agents improve their performance on long-horizon tasks by learning from their own interactions with an environment. A common approach uses the resulting failed trajectories as negatives for preference training. However, collecting an agent's own failures does not ensure that they provide informative supervision for further improvement. Obvious failures may be easy to reject without learning to identify errors in more plausible attempts. These plausible but incorrect trajectories can serve as hard negatives, helping agents learn to distinguish successful behavior from failures with less obvious errors. To enable agents to generate and learn from such informative negatives, we propose a co-evolving framework that couples a tar
