HAG: Hierarchical Demographic Tree-based Agent Generation for Topic-Adaptive Simulation

2026-01-09 · Rongxin Chen, Tianyu Wu, Bingbing Xu, Jiatang Luo, Xiucheng Xu, Huawei Shen arxiv

High-fidelity agent initialization is crucial for credible Agent-Based Modeling across diverse domains. A robust framework should be Topic-Adaptive, capturing macro-level joint distributions while ensuring micro-level individual rationality. Existing approaches fall into two categories: static data-based retrieval methods that fail to adapt to unseen topics absent from the data, and LLM-based generation methods that lack macro-level distribution awareness, resulting in inconsistencies between micro-level persona attributes and reality. To address these problems, we propose HAG, a Hierarchical Agent Generation framework that formalizes population generation as a two-stage decision process. Firstly, utilizing a World Knowledge Model to infer hierarchical conditional probabilities to construct the Topic-Adaptive Tree, achieving macro-level distribution alignment. Then, grounded real-world data, instantiation and agentic augmentation are carried out to ensure micro-level consistency. Given the lack of specialized evaluation, we establish a multi-domain benchmark and a comprehensive PACE evaluation framework. Extensive experiments show that HAG significantly outperforms representative baselines, reducing population alignment errors by an average of 37.7% and enhancing sociological consistency by 18.8%.

A Novel Document Generation Process for Topic Detection based on Hierarchical Latent Tree Models

2017-12-12 · Peixian Chen, Zhourong Chen, Nevin L. Zhang

We propose a novel document generation process based on hierarchical latent tree models (HLTMs) learned from data. An HLTM has a layer of observed word variables at the bottom and multiple layers of latent variables on t…

Temporal Order Matters for Agentic Memory: Segment Trees for Long-Horizon Agents

2026-06-03 · Yifan Simon Liu, Liam Gallagher, Faeze Moradi Kalarde, Jiazhou Liang 외 arxiv

Long-horizon conversational agents need to interact with users through evolving events, tasks, and goals. Such histories are naturally temporal, yet many existing memory systems organize information primarily by topical …
