• Abstract: With the rapid development of large models in the field of artificial intelligence, how to enhance their application capabilities in handling complex problems in the field of scientific research remains a challenging problem to be solved. This study proposes an improved Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) method based on prompt words. In the simulation search stage, it introduces dynamic adjustment of exploration parameters and adaptive selection strategies, which can better balance exploration and exploitation, thereby reducing the hallucination phenomenon. This paper takes the four subsets of the SciEval dataset as the test objects, and compares the Glm-4-flash+Improved MCTS method with the methods of several existing models. The results show that the Improved MCTS method performs better, providing new ideas and methods for the application of large models in the field of scientific research.

  We propose Hierarchical Opponent modeling and Planning (HOP), a novel multi-agent decision-making algorithm. HOP is hierarchically composed of two modules: an opponent modeling module that infers others' goals and learns corresponding goal-conditioned policies. HOP exhibits superior few-shot adaptation capabilities when interacting with various unseen agents, and excels in self-play scenarios.
