GSMultiAgent: A Multi-Agent Loop Framework atop Hermes Agent for Intelligent Design of Guidance Systems

Aug 2026 · Aerospace · 0 citations

Abstract

The strong coupling among guidance laws, control loops, aerodynamics, and mission constraints poses growing challenges to the design of modern tactical missile guidance systems for autonomous flight. Conventional manual tuning and simulation-based trial-and-error result in long iteration cycles, limited reuse of design knowledge, and poor adaptability to changing scenarios. To address these limitations, we propose GSMultiAgent, a multi-agent collaborative cascade framework built atop Hermes Agent, which transforms natural-language mission requirements into optimized guidance system models through structured agent cooperation with feedback-driven iterative refinement. Three innovations are introduced: (1) a three-layer correction pipeline covering syntactic checking, deterministic mathematical verification, and semantic reasoning; (2) a bimodal experience repository supporting similarity-guided retrieval with access-count decay and best-quality retrieval for PPO warm-start initialization; and (3) a self-adjudicating optimizer that autonomously decides between PPO-based systematic parameter search and heuristic LLM-tuning guided by a reflection agent. Across four engagement scenarios, GSMultiAgent consistently attains high feasibility at a small fraction of the simulation budget required by conventional optimizers and single-agent baselines, and its design paths escalate autonomously from parameter tuning to structural law modification as task difficulty increases. Ablation studies confirm that the reflection agent, the optimization agent, and structured memory each contribute essential and complementary gains. These results establish multi-agent coordination with structured memory and self-adjudicating optimization as an effective paradigm for intelligent, reusable guidance system design.

Introducing Quine: An AI research system designed for the complexity of biology

Biology doesn't operate in silos, and neither should the AI representation of it. Quine is an early-stage research effort to create a multimodal world model of biology. By connecting insights across biological scales and modalities, Quine helps scientists computationally search a space far larger than intuition allows and prioritize hypotheses before they reach the lab. Experimental results provide important feedback, helping researchers sharpen future research directions. The post Introducing Q…
