Task-Oriented Key-Layer KV Communication for Efficient Latent Multi-Agent Collaboration

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.08820v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model-based multi-agent systems improve complex problem solving through collaboration, while latent communication directly transmits model internal states to avoid the high inference costs of natural language. However, existing KV-based latent communication methods prioritize sender-side state fidelity, leading to substantial communication and computation overhead and potentially introducing redundant information. To address these limitations, we revisit latent communication from a task-oriented perspective, shifting its objective from sender-side state fidelity to receiver-side task sufficiency. Under this formulation, we propose KITE, a training-free framework for task-oriented key-layer KV communication. KITE identifies a ta
