Abstract:Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents demonstrate strong reasoning and execution capabilities on complex tasks when guided by structured instructions, commonly referred to as workflows. However, existing workflow-assisted agent serving systems typically rely on predefined templates and shallow matching mechanisms, which limit their ability to capture deep semantic relationships and generalize to previously unseen tasks. To address these limitations, we propose a new workflow management paradigm that represents workflows using a unified graph, termed wGraph, where each node corresponds to an atomic operation. wGraph serves as a shared substrate from which task-specific workflows are dynamically instantiated. Building on wGraph primitives, we introduce GraphFlow, a system that efficiently integrates workflows into agent serving through two key designs. First, adaptive workflow generation dynamically constructs workflows from wGraph based on task semantics and constraint requirements. Second, workflow state management exploits wGraph structure to efficiently manage Key-Value (KV) caches, reducing redundant computation during agent serving. Extensive experiments across five benchmark datasets show that GraphFlow consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods, yielding an average performance improvement of approximately 4.95 percentage points, while achieving an approximately 4$\times$ reduction in memory footprint.
Abstract:As a method to connect human brain and external devices, Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are receiving extensive research attention. Recently, the integration of communication theory with BCI has emerged as a popular trend, offering potential to enhance system performance and shape next-generation communications. A key challenge in this field is modeling the brain wireless communication channel between intracranial electrocorticography (ECoG) emitting neurons and extracranial electroencephalography (EEG) receiving electrodes. However, the complex physiology of brain challenges the application of traditional channel modeling methods, leaving relevant research in its infancy. To address this gap, we propose a frequency-division multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) estimation framework leveraging simultaneous macaque EEG and ECoG recordings, while employing neurophysiology-informed regularization to suppress noise interference. This approach reveals profound similarities between neural signal propagation and multi-antenna communication systems. Experimental results show improved estimation accuracy over conventional methods while highlighting a trade-off between frequency resolution and temporal stability determined by signal duration. This work establish a conceptual bridge between neural interfacing and communication theory, accelerating synergistic developments in both fields.
