1. EconAgent: Large Language Model-Empowered Agents for Simulating Macroeconomic Activities (2024 · 86 citations)
   Agent-based models (ABM) of the economy usually drive households with hand-written rules or trained neural networks.
2. CityCube: Benchmarking Cross-view Spatial Reasoning on Vision-Language Models in Urban Environments (2026 · 1 citation)
   Vision-language models increasingly act as the reasoning core of embodied agents such as drones, robots and self-driving cars.
3. Learn to Relax with Large Language Models: Solving Constraint Optimization Problems via Bidirectional Coevolution (2026)
   Real-world constraint optimization problems (COPs) are often NP-hard. Hard constraints split the feasible region into fragments, so LLM-driven algorithm-design systems such as EoH, ReEvo and FunSearch get little useful feedback once feasible solutions become rare. The authors propose AutoCO, which makes the LLM an…
