MaCTG: Multi-Agent Collaborative Thought Graph for Automatic Programming

With the rapid advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs), LLM-based approaches have demonstrated strong problem-solving capabilities across various domains. However, in automatic programming, a single LLM is typically limited to function-level code generation, while multi-agent systems composed of multiple LLMs often suffer from inefficient task planning. This lack of structured coordination can lead to cascading hallucinations, where accumulated errors across agents result in suboptimal workflows and excessive computational costs. To overcome these challenges, we introduce MaCTG (Multi-Agent Collaborative Thought Graph), a novel multi-agent framework that employs a dynamic graph structure to facilitate precise task allocation and controlled collaboration among LLM agents. MaCTG autonomously assigns agent roles based on programming requirements, dynamically refines task distribution through context-aware adjustments, and systematically verifies and integrates project-level code, effectively reducing hallucination errors and improving overall accuracy. MaCTG enhances cost-effectiveness by implementing a hybrid LLM deployment, where proprietary models handle complex reasoning, while open-source models are used for routine coding and validation tasks. To evaluate MaCTG's effectiveness, we applied it to traditional image processing auto-programming tasks, achieving a state-of-the-art accuracy of 83.33%. Additionally, by leveraging its hybrid LLM configuration, MaCTG significantly reduced operational costs by 89.09% compared to existing multi-agent frameworks, demonstrating its efficiency, scalability, and real-world applicability.

Towards Fully Automated Medical Imaging Code Generation via Validation-based Context Engineering

Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated considerable promise in program generation for small-scale and conventional application development; however, they remain limited when applied to complex, domain-specific tasks such as medical image processing. General-purpose models lack explicit domain knowledge and robust validation mechanisms to ensure correctness, often requiring substantial human intervention to produce reliable processing pipelines. To address these limitations, we propose AutoMedImg, a multi-agent framework for fully automated medical image processing code generation. AutoMedImg orchestrates specialised agents across two phases: a Planning Phase that performs dataset analysis and architecture design with semantic and formal verification, and a Coding Phase that generates modules in parallel with static checking, execution testing, and assembly validation. This multi-stage validation mitigates error propagation throughout generation, while comprehensive auto-context engineering combining domain-specific knowledge bases, shared memory, and validation feedback automates context construction without manual prompting. A cross-project adaptive pipeline synthesis mechanism further accumulates validated pipelines and retrieves proven components for new tasks based on project similarity, enhancing generation efficiency through cross-project learning. Extensive evaluation across six diverse and well-established medical imaging datasets with five backbone LLMs demonstrates that AutoMedImg achieves zero human intervention, with Dice scores of up to 0.90 for segmentation tasks and 99% accuracy for classification.
