Can AI Agents Interface Clinicians and Complex Models?

Abstract

Background: Contemporary healthcare institutions generate daily very large amounts of data, which contain highly useful information for the improvement of work organization, planning and overall efficiency. While models and techniques to extract these insights are well known and constantly developed in mathematical biology, complex systems physics and data science, the adoption of these techniques among Clinicians and Hospital Administrators remains limited, mainly due to language and methodological divides. Objective: In this article we implement an AI Multi Agent System (MAS) that allows Users to use predictive models and make statistical analyses via natural language conversations. Methods: We developed EpidemIA, a training-free MAS endowed with a modular suite of epidemiological models written by human experts, executable on a single-GPU workstation. To avoid relaying sensitive data to third parties, the system uses locally an open-weights LLM as backbone for its two subagents. Results: Using a dataset of Emergency Department visits provided to us by IRCCS Sant'Orsola (Bologna) we test the model on a few typical use cases, demonstrating the possibility of performing both simpler statistical analyses and visualizations as well as more complicated epidemiological predictions based on dynamical models, through simple queries made in natural language. Conclusions: While still being a proof-of-concept implementation, EpidemIA showcases the transformative capabilities of LLM based technologies as an enabling factor in the widespread adoption of complex dynamical models, which is at present hindered by their steep learning curve.

Emergent Risks in Generative Multi-Agent Systems

Multi-agent systems composed of large generative models are rapidly moving from laboratory prototypes to real-world deployments, where they jointly plan, negotiate, and allocate shared resources to solve complex tasks. While such systems promise unprecedented scalability and autonomy, their collective interaction also gives rise to failure modes that cannot be reduced to individual agents. Understanding these emergent risks is therefore critical. Here, we present a pioneer study of such emergent multi-agent risk in workflows that involve competition over shared resources (e.g., computing resources or market share), sequential handoff collaboration (where downstream agents see only predecessor outputs), collective decision aggregation, and others. Across these settings, we observe that such group behaviors arise frequently across repeated trials and a wide range of interaction conditions, rather than as rare or pathological cases. In particular, phenomena such as collusion-like coordination and conformity emerge with non-trivial frequency under realistic resource constraints, communication protocols, and role assignments, mirroring well-known pathologies in human societies despite no explicit instruction. Moreover, these risks cannot be prevented by existing agent-level safeguards alone. These findings expose the dark side of intelligent multi-agent systems: a social intelligence risk where agent collectives, despite no instruction to do so, spontaneously reproduce familiar failure patterns from human societies.

You Can't Escape Your Activations : Evaluation Awareness and Multi-Agent Monitoring

LLM agents are increasingly deployed in multi-agent systems, where they can collude while keeping their actions benign. Output monitors designed to detect such collusions can be fooled by obfuscation and steganography, motivating the use of probes trained on internal activations. However, these probes are usually evaluated on agents that do not know they are being watched. We study how activation-based detection changes when agents are explicitly informed that their internal activations are being monitored, and when they additionally receive feedback from the monitor. We keep the models, probes, and thresholds fixed and change only what the agents are told: nothing (baseline), that an activation monitor is present (aware), or that a monitor is present together with the previous round's score (feedback). We test two games, a four-agent blackjack game and a two-agent Simmons prisoners game, using Qwen3-32B-AWQ and GPT-OSS-20B in homogeneous and mixed pairings. Telling agents about the monitor does not hide them. The best probes stay accurate in all three conditions, and the agents keep colluding.

DiTSG: Context-Aware Air Traffic Scene Generation with Multi-Agent Diffusion Transformers

Understanding how many aircraft, and which traffic configurations, can be safely and efficiently managed by air traffic controllers within a given airspace is fundamental to air traffic management. Air traffic controllers continuously modify aircraft trajectories through interventions such as speed advisories and radar vectoring, and the patterns of these interventions are difficult to capture effectively using existing air traffic simulators. To address this limitation, we propose Diffusion Transformers for Traffic Scene Generation (DiTSG), which learns to generate air traffic scenes from recorded multi-aircraft trajectories. DiTSG employs stacked multi-agent inverted Transformer layers as the denoising backbone of a diffusion transformer, jointly generates the trajectories of multiple aircraft within a traffic scene, and conditions the generation on agent-specific required times of arrival. The resulting trajectories generated by DiTSG preserve realistic inter-aircraft interactions observed in actual air traffic operations. Experiments show that the DiTSG generates diverse traffic scenes that reproduce the statistical properties of recorded traffic while preserving realistic inter-aircraft interactions.
