Description
Summary:As LLMs demonstrate remarkable reasoning capabilities, LLM-powered agents are seen as key to achieving AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) and are widely applied in various complex real-world scenarios. Nevertheless, existing studies still suffer from missing steps, deviated task execution and incorrect tool selection. This paper proposes CoReaAgents, a collaboration and reasoning framework based on LLM-powered agents, comprising the Plan Agent (as a precise task planner), the Tool Agent (as a proficient tool user) and the Reflect Agent (as an objective task evaluator). These agents simulate the social division of labor and synergistic cooperation to enable each agent to perform different specialized capabilities in order to solve complex tasks together. Through the above mechanism, the CoReaAgents framework has the skills of prospective thinking and flexible execution. To verify the capability of the CoReaAgents framework, this paper conducts extensive experiments on different complex tasks such as tool learning, math reasoning and multi-hop QA. The results show that the CoReaAgents framework outperforms various comparative methods in both quantity and quality.
