AIMS: An Agentic AI Framework for Sim-to-Real Multi-Modal ISAC

Abstract

Multi-modal integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) enables environmental perception and reliable connectivity for intelligent wireless networks. Data-driven multi-modal ISAC models depend heavily on annotated real-world data to learn relationships across sensing and wireless observations, thereby constraining scalable deployment. Although synthetic data generation reduces the burden, adapting existing simulation pipelines to a target deployment requires consistent scene, sensing, wireless, and learning configurations, while mismatches among these coupled components impair sim-to-real transferability. To address the challenge, we propose an agentic artificial intelligence (AI) framework for sim-to-real multi-modal ISAC, named AIMS. Given a natural-language deployment request specifying the target task, deployment conditions, and real-data budget, AIMS derives a deployment-specific sim-to-real configuration and coordinates its execution to produce a deployment-specific task model. A two-agent architecture coordinates scene construction with task learning. A scene construction agent generates geographically grounded, synchronized sensing and wireless records from shared physical states, while a scene understanding agent configures task-relevant modalities and mixture-of-experts (MoE) learning for zero-shot inference or few-shot adaptation. Structured domain knowledge guides dependency-aware planning, while validation evidence supports feedback-driven revision of affected decisions. Experiments on the real-world DeepSense~6G dataset demonstrate improved vehicle detection and beam prediction over the considered simulation and fusion baselines. A separate orchestration benchmark evaluates task interpretation, dependency reasoning, and feedback-driven replanning across diverse deployment requests, showing improved plan correctness with structured domain knowledge and validation feedback.

Generalising from Self-Produced Data: Model Training Beyond Human Constraints

Current large language models (LLMs) are constrained by human-derived training data and limited by a single level of abstraction that impedes definitive truth judgments. This paper introduces a novel framework in which AI models autonomously generate and validate new knowledge through direct interaction with their environment. Central to this approach is an unbounded, ungamable numeric reward - such as annexed disk space or follower count - that guides learning without requiring human benchmarks. AI agents iteratively generate strategies and executable code to maximize this metric, with successful outcomes forming the basis for self-retraining and incremental generalisation. To mitigate model collapse and the warm start problem, the framework emphasizes empirical validation over textual similarity and supports fine-tuning via GRPO. The system architecture employs modular agents for environment analysis, strategy generation, and code synthesis, enabling scalable experimentation. This work outlines a pathway toward self-improving AI systems capable of advancing beyond human-imposed constraints toward autonomous general intelligence.

Hierarchical Reasoning Model

Reasoning, the process of devising and executing complex goal-oriented action sequences, remains a critical challenge in AI. Current large language models (LLMs) primarily employ Chain-of-Thought (CoT) techniques, which suffer from brittle task decomposition, extensive data requirements, and high latency. Inspired by the hierarchical and multi-timescale processing in the human brain, we propose the Hierarchical Reasoning Model (HRM), a novel recurrent architecture that attains significant computational depth while maintaining both training stability and efficiency. HRM executes sequential reasoning tasks in a single forward pass without explicit supervision of the intermediate process, through two interdependent recurrent modules: a high-level module responsible for slow, abstract planning, and a low-level module handling rapid, detailed computations. With only 27 million parameters, HRM achieves exceptional performance on complex reasoning tasks using only 1000 training samples. The model operates without pre-training or CoT data, yet achieves nearly perfect performance on challenging tasks including complex Sudoku puzzles and optimal path finding in large mazes. Furthermore, HRM outperforms much larger models with significantly longer context windows on the Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC), a key benchmark for measuring artificial general intelligence capabilities. These results underscore HRM's potential as a transformative advancement toward universal computation and general-purpose reasoning systems.

A memory-based active inference model of DishBrain-like adaptive behaviour

Recent and rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI) make it increasingly important to understand the foundations of adaptive behaviour in autonomous agents, especially for building safe and efficient systems. While artificial neural networks have dominated the development of AI, recent work has begun to explore living biological neuronal networks as an alternative substrate for computation. These systems promise remarkable data and sample efficiency and rich dynamics, and may also inspire explainable and biologically plausible models. Here, we develop an experiment-informed active inference framework to model decision-making in closed-loop agents that mirror experimental setups using biological neurons. Using a generative model whose dimensions are matched to an experiment protocol, we systematically compare three decision-making schemes within this common generative model. Under matched episode counts (i.e. total data available for learning) to the in-vitro experiment, our simulations show that agents with short memory horizons reach a level of performance close to that of mouse and human cortical cultures (DishBrain platform), whereas longer memory horizons depart from it substantially. Increasing the planning horizon, by contrast, confers no comparable benefit. Because all model parameters are explicit, we can also track the quantities in our generative model that accompany this improvement, such as the risk term and the entropy of the transition and state-action mappings. Together, these results illustrate how active inference offers a formal language for comparing decision-making schemes in similar closed-loop control environments.
