CellAgent: An LLM-driven Multi-Agent Framework for Automated Single-cell Data Analysis
Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data analysis is crucial for biological research, as it enables the precise characterization of cellular heterogeneity. However, manual manipulation of various tools to achieve desired outcomes can be labor-intensive for researchers. To address this, we introduce CellAgent (http://cell.agent4science.cn/), an LLM-driven multi-agent framework, specifically designed for the automatic processing and execution of scRNA-seq data analysis tasks, providing high-quality results with no human intervention. Firstly, to adapt general LLMs to the biological field, CellAgent constructs LLM-driven biological expert roles - planner, executor, and evaluator - each with specific responsibilities. Then, CellAgent introduces a hierarchical decision-making mechanism to coordinate these biological experts, effectively driving the planning and step-by-step execution of complex data analysis tasks. Furthermore, we propose a self-iterative optimization mechanism, enabling CellAgent to autonomously evaluate and optimize solutions, thereby guaranteeing output quality. We evaluate CellAgent on a comprehensive benchmark dataset encompassing dozens of tissues and hundreds of distinct cell types. Evaluation results consistently show that CellAgent effectively identifies the most suitable tools and hyperparameters for single-cell analysis tasks, achieving optimal performance. This automated framework dramatically reduces the workload for science data analyses, bringing us into the "Agent for Science" era.

SpaCellAgent: A Self-Evolving LLM-Based Multi-Agent Framework for Trajectory Analysis
Spatial and Single-cell transcriptomics are transformative in deciphering cellular dynamics. As the fundamental paradigm for reconstructing cell developmental paths, trajectory inference (TI) is critical. However, existi…
GenCellAgent: Generalizable, Training-Free Cellular Image Segmentation via Large Language Model Agents
Cellular image segmentation is essential for quantitative biology yet remains difficult due to heterogeneous modalities, morphological variability, and limited annotations. We present GenCellAgent, a training-free multi-…
Image SegmentationATLAS: A Multi-LLM Training Framework for EvoDPO with Adaptive Reference Evolution
Recent multi-LLM agent systems have shown promising capabilities for automated problem-solving, yet they predominantly rely on frozen agents or static fine-tuning pipelines. To address this limitation, our primary contri…
APD-Agents: A Large Language Model-Driven Multi-Agents Collaborative Framework for Automated Page Design
Layout design is a crucial step in developing mobile app pages. However, crafting satisfactory designs is time-intensive for designers: they need to consider which controls and content to present on the page, and then re…
MIMIC-Py: An Extensible Tool for Personality-Driven Automated Game Testing with Large Language Models
Modern video games are complex, non-deterministic systems that are difficult to test automatically at scale. Although prior work shows that personality-driven Large Language Model (LLM) agents can improve behavioural div…
