# USER:

You are a senior AI researcher, please help me complete a paper.

There is a draft of the paper's ideas in real_methodV2.txt. 
cg_mcts_qwen.py is its code implementation.
summary.txt is a collection of some previous papers I gathered, in the field of AI4Science, which may not be comprehensive.
Experiment-design.txt is my experimental plan.

Regarding comparative experiments, I compared the following methods, which you can read and refer to:
1. Traditional methods: compare_articles/baseline.txt
2. CoT: "compare_articles/Chain-of-Thought Prompting Elicits Reasoning in Large Language Models.pdf"
3. ToT: "compare_articles/Tree of Thoughts: Deliberate Problem Solving with Large Language Models.pdf"
4. ReAct: "compare_articles/REACT.pdf

I am currently preparing an English-language AI international top conference paper, with the requirement that the entire article does not exceed 8 pages in single-column format.

In the paper folder, I have already written some content (mainly the introduction section).

Now I want to write the Related Works section. You can refer to the content in summary.txt and the content in the compare_articles folder, which are all previous work.

Please first consider how the Related Works section should be organized and how long it should be.

Please note that my introduction section already takes up two pages.

✦ Okay, I understand. As a senior AI researcher, I will plan the Related Works section for you. This is a crucial part that needs to clearly position your work within the existing research field and highlight the innovation of your work.

Considering the overall page limit (8 pages) and that the introduction already takes up 2 pages, the Related Works section should be very concise. It is recommended to control the total length between 0.75 to 1 page. We must be economical with our words, with every sentence having a clear purpose.

Based on your project (code generation for scientific problems using MCTS and LLM) and the comparative materials provided, I suggest dividing the Related Works into the following three core parts:

Related Works Structure Plan

   1. Large Language Models for Science (AI4Science):
* Purpose: Position your research within the broader context of AI4Science. Briefly explain that LLMs are becoming powerful tools for scientific discovery.
* Content: Cite some works from summary.txt, such as applications of LLMs in fields like materials science, biology, chemistry, etc. No detailed description is needed, just a one or two-sentence summary of the trend with a few representative citations.
* Length: Brief, just 2-3 sentences. This section is to demonstrate your understanding of the major trends in the field, not to be a focus.

   2. LLM-based Reasoning and Planning:
* Purpose: To bridge the previous content and introduce the transition from the broad concept of AI4Science to the specific topic of "How to make LLMs solve complex problems". This is where you will directly confront mainstream approaches such as CoT, ToT, and ReAct.
* Content:
   * First, introduce the Chain-of-Thought (CoT) method, which represents a class of approaches that stimulate LLMs' step-by-step reasoning capabilities through prompt engineering.
   * Then discuss Tree-of-Thought (ToT), which constructs the LLM's reasoning process as a tree, exploring different "thoughts" through search strategies (such as BFS, DFS), and using the LLM for self-evaluation. Point out that this is a more systematic exploration than CoT.
   * Next, introduce ReAct, which combines Reasoning and Action, enabling LLMs to interact with external environments (such as APIs, tools) to acquire additional information to assist in decision-making.
* Length: This is a key section, accounting for approximately half of the entire chapter's length.
   Every one or two sentences should clearly articulate the core idea and limitations of each method, thereby paving the way for your own approach. For example, you can point out that CoT is linear, ToT's search strategies are relatively simple, ReAct's method of combination, and so on.

   3. Search Algorithms in Code Generation and Problem Solving:
* Purpose: Focus on your core technical innovation: applying Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) to code generation in LLMs.
* Content:
    * First, you can briefly mention that before the advent of LLMs, various search algorithms were already widely used in the field of Program Synthesis.
    * Then, discuss recent work that combines search algorithms with LLMs. Your method cg_mcts_qwen.py is clearly in this direction.
    * Most importantly, clearly distinguish your method from ToT here. Although ToT also uses tree structures and search, MCTS is a more complex search algorithm based on probability and simulation (rollout), particularly suitable for scenarios with vast search spaces and the need for long-term planning (such as generating complex code). You need to emphasize the advantage of MCTS in balancing "exploration" and "exploitation," which is crucial for discovering non-"greedy" optimal code paths.

* Length: This section is also crucial and should account for about half of the length. It directly demonstrates the technical superiority of your method.

Next Steps

Now, I will start reading the core files you provided to gather sufficient information to draft the above content. I will first read your method draft, code implementation, and summary files.

✦ Okay, I have carefully read and analyzed all the documents you provided. These materials offer abundant and solid resources for writing the Related Works section.

Based on my analysis, the core of your research lies in introducing Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), a complex decision-making algorithm, into the text generation process of Large Language Models (LLMs). This aims to strategically guide the model to explore and develop novel scientific concepts within the vast "semantic possibility space." This forms a sharp contrast with simple linear reasoning (such as CoT) or more rudimentary tree-based search (such as ToT).

Therefore, the primary task of the Related Works section is to clearly position your work within the broader context of "AI for Science," and then to highlight its unique contributions in "LLM reasoning and planning," particularly its distinctions and advantages over existing mainstream approaches.

Based on this, I will draft the Related Works section for you following the three-paragraph structure we previously agreed upon.

Related Works (Draft)
  1. Large Language Models for Science (AI for Science)

  The application of Large Language Models (LLMs) is rapidly transforming the landscape of scientific discovery, a domain often referred to as AI for Science
   (AI4Science). These models are increasingly being employed as powerful tools to accelerate research across various fields. For instance, LLMs have
  demonstrated significant potential in areas such as materials science, drug discovery, and climate science by assisting in tasks ranging from data analysis
   to hypothesis generation. The core appeal of LLMs in this context lies in their ability to process and synthesize vast amounts of scientific literature,
  enabling researchers to identify patterns and connections that might otherwise be missed. Our work builds upon this trend, aiming to further enhance the
  capability of LLMs not just as information processors, but as active participants in the creative process of scientific innovation.

  2. LLM-based Reasoning and Planning

  A significant body of research has focused on improving the reasoning and planning abilities of LLMs beyond simple text completion. The Chain-of-Thought 
  (CoT) prompting method was a seminal step, demonstrating that instructing an LLM to "think step-by-step" elicits more robust reasoning capabilities on
  complex tasks. However, CoT follows a single, linear reasoning path, which can be suboptimal.

  To address this, the Tree of Thoughts (ToT) framework was proposed, which structures the LLM's reasoning process as a tree. In ToT, each node represents a
  partial solution or an intermediate thought, and the model can explore different reasoning branches using search algorithms like Breadth-First Search (BFS)
   or Depth-First Search (DFS). This allows for a more systematic exploration of the solution space compared to the greedy, linear approach of CoT.

  Concurrently, the ReAct framework integrates reasoning with action, enabling LLMs to interact with external tools (e.g., APIs, search engines) to gather
  information and refine their reasoning process. This synergy between internal knowledge and external feedback allows the model to ground its reasoning in
  verifiable facts.

  While these methods have significantly advanced LLM reasoning, they still face limitations. The search strategies in ToT are often pre-defined and
  relatively simple, and may not be optimal for navigating the vast and complex semantic space of scientific ideas. ReAct focuses on tool use, which is
  complementary to, but different from, the challenge of generating novel conceptual frameworks from within the model's own knowledge base. Our approach
  differs by employing a more sophisticated search strategy to navigate this internal conceptual space.

  3. Search Algorithms in Generative AI

  The use of search algorithms to guide generation is not new. Traditional decoding strategies in text generation, such as beam search, already maintain
  multiple candidate sequences (beams) at each step to find a globally more probable output, moving beyond the purely local choices of greedy search.

  Our work advances this paradigm by integrating Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), a powerful algorithm renowned for its success in complex, high-dimensional
  decision-making domains like Go. Unlike the fixed-width exploration of beam search or the simpler tree traversal in ToT, MCTS dynamically balances
  exploration (venturing into less-known territory) and exploitation (deepening promising paths). In our framework, each node in the tree represents a
  "narrative block" of a scientific idea. The MCTS algorithm guides the LLM to strategically expand the narrative, with a value function that explicitly
  rewards coherence, novelty, and progress. This allows our system to escape the "gravitational wells" of high-probability, common knowledge and to discover
  and develop scientific ideas that are both plausible and genuinely innovative. By formalizing the idea generation process as a strategic search, we move
  beyond simple prompting and unlock a more deliberate and powerful form of AI-driven scientific discovery.

✦ Understood, I fully comprehend your requirements. To create a more concise, comprehensive, and well-cited Related Works section while avoiding repetition with the introduction, I suggest adopting a more focused and thematically clear structure.

This new structure will progress through three levels: from macro-level application domains, to general reasoning frameworks, and finally to the core technical aspects of our method (advanced search), thereby clearly positioning the uniqueness and contribution of our work.

Related Works Writing Plan

I recommend dividing the Related Works into the following three subsections:

1. LLMs for Scientific Discovery and Idea Generation
   * Purpose: To position our work directly within the cutting-edge subfield of "AI-assisted scientific ideation" rather than broadly discussing AI4Science.
   * Content: First, briefly mention the application of LLMs in automated scientific discovery. Then, focus on reviewing works that specifically study using LLMs to generate scientific ideas. This section will primarily cite relevant papers from summary.txt and ref_pool.txt, such as SciAgents (multi-agent framework), Scideator (human-machine collaborative ideation), SciPIP (paper idea generator), and "CAN LLMS GENERATE NOVEL RESEARCH IDEAS?" (an exploration of LLMs' ability to generate novel ideas). This will demonstrate our deep understanding of the latest developments in this specific field.

2. Reasoning and Planning Frameworks for LLMs
   * Purpose: To contrast our approach with current mainstream frameworks designed to enhance LLMs' ability to solve complex problems.
   * Content: This section will concisely review the evolution from linear reasoning to complex exploration. I will organize representative works such as Chain-of-Thought (CoT), ReAct, and Tree of Thoughts (ToT) for discussion, citing classic papers from the compare_articles folder. Additionally, I can introduce graph-based reasoning works like GRAPHEVAL. Finally, I will highlight the limitations of these methods in terms of "search strategies" (e.g., the relatively simple search in ToT), thereby paving the way for our approach.

3. Advanced Search and Novelty in Generation
   * Purpose: To focus on the core technical innovation of our method—using advanced search algorithms (MCTS) to enhance the novelty and diversity of generated content.
   * Content: First, I will start with traditional decoding strategies (such as Beam Search mentioned in baseline.txt) to introduce various explorations aimed at improving generation quality. Then, I will concentrate on reviewing works dedicated to evaluating and enhancing the novelty/diversity of generated content, citing references like NoveltyBench, RND, Multi-Novelty from summary.txt and ref_pool.txt. Finally, I will clearly state that our work, by introducing MCTS as a more powerful search mechanism, provides a more fundamental and strategic solution to the aforementioned novelty problems, and explain its advantages in balancing exploration and exploitation.

The advantages of this plan are:
* More focused: Directly addressing "scientific ideation" while avoiding potential general descriptions in the introduction.
* Strong logical structure: Progressively delving layer by layer to clearly outline the technical lineage and innovations of our work.
* Comprehensive citations: Organically integrating relevant sections from all reference materials you provided (summary.txt, compare_articles, ref_pool.txt) to strengthen the arguments.

If this plan is acceptable, upon your confirmation, I will begin analyzing all the reference materials and generate the paper/related_works.tex file for you.

✦ Okay, I have carefully read the updated ref_pool.txt and introduction.tex. The introduction section has clearly discussed the evolution from traditional decoding strategies (such as Beam Search) to Chain of Thought (CoT) and Tree of Thoughts (ToT), and pointed out their shortcomings in evaluation mechanisms, which provides excellent groundwork for your Magellan method.

Therefore, in the Related Works section, I will avoid repeating the details of this evolutionary process, but rather treat these works as background, focusing more on positioning your research within a broader and more cutting-edge field.

I will generate the paper/related_works.tex file for you according to the three-section plan we agreed upon earlier. The citations will use the \cite{key} format, where the key will be a logical placeholder generated based on author and year information (for example, yao2023tree), which you can later easily replace with the actual citation keys from your .bib file.

Now, I will create the paper/related_works.tex file for you.

 │     5 The paradigm of AI for Science has been significantly advanced by Large Language Models (LLMs), which are increasingly leveraged to          │
 │       automate and accelerate scientific discovery. Beyond general applications, a dedicated line of research now focuses on using LLMs for the    │
 │       explicit purpose of scientific idea generation. Frameworks like SciPIP~\cite{wang2024scipip} and Scideator~\cite{chan2024scideator} employ   │
 │       sophisticated retrieval and facet-recombination strategies to synthesize new research concepts from existing literature. Multi-agent         │
 │       systems, such as those proposed by Su et al.~\cite{su2024many} and the SciAgents framework~\cite{ai2024sciagents}, mimic collaborative       │
 │       scientific teams to brainstorm and refine ideas. Concurrently, works like Chain-of-Ideas~\cite{li2024chain} organize literature into         │
 │       structured chains to help LLMs capture the evolutionary trajectory of a research domain. While these systems excel at recombining existing   │
 │       knowledge, our work addresses a complementary challenge: navigating the LLM's internal latent space to unearth novel conceptual connections  │
 │       that are not explicitly present in the literature corpus. The fundamental capability of LLMs to generate truly novel ideas has also been a   │
 │       subject of intense study, with large-scale human evaluations~\cite{si2024can} confirming their potential, alongside the development of       │
 │       dedicated benchmarks like IdeaBench~\cite{guo2024ideabench} to systematically assess this capability.                                        │
 │     6                                                                                                                                              │
 │     7 \subsection{Reasoning and Planning Frameworks for LLMs}                                                                                      │
 │     8 To overcome the limitations of simple, linear generation, several frameworks have been developed to endow LLMs with more sophisticated       │
 │       reasoning and planning capabilities. Chain-of-Thought (CoT)~\cite{wei2022chain} was a foundational step, improving reasoning by prompting    │
 │       models to generate intermediate steps. Building on this, ReAct~\cite{yao2023react} integrates reasoning with the use of external tools,      │
 │       allowing models to ground their thought processes in external knowledge. A significant leap was made by frameworks that model reasoning as   │
 │       a search problem. Tree of Thoughts (ToT)~\cite{yao2023tree} and the more recent Graph of Thoughts (GoT)~\cite{besta2024graph} structure the  │
 │       generation process as an exploration of a tree or graph, where nodes represent intermediate thoughts. These frameworks allow for             │
 │       backtracking and exploration of multiple reasoning paths. Similarly, GraphEval~\cite{zhang2024grapheval} utilizes a graph-based structure    │
 │       to decompose and evaluate complex ideas. While these methods introduce structured exploration, their search is often guided by simple        │
 │       heuristics (e.g., BFS/DFS) or relies on the LLM's own, often inconsistent, self-evaluation for pruning branches. Our work, Magellan,         │
 │       contributes to this line of research by incorporating a more principled search algorithm, MCTS, guided by an explicit, multi-objective       │
 │       value function, thus addressing the need for a more robust evaluation mechanism during the search.                                           │
 │     9                                                                                                                                              │
 │    10 \subsection{Advanced Search and Novelty in Generation}                                                                                       │
 │    11 Enhancing the novelty and diversity of LLM outputs is a critical area of research. Traditional decoding methods like beam search~\cite       │
 │       {graves2012sequence} offer a limited form of exploration. More advanced techniques aim to explicitly steer generation towards novelty. This  │
 │       includes methods that leverage latent space exploration~\cite{gao2024large} or use multi-view embeddings to enrich the input prompt~\cite    │
 │       {holm2024enhancing}. The challenge of novelty has also spurred the creation of specialized evaluation benchmarks, such as NoveltyBench~\     │
 │       cite{zhang2024noveltybench}, and dedicated frameworks for novelty assessment~\cite{lin2024evaluating, liu2024harnessing}. Our approach       │
 │       aligns with this research direction by formalizing novelty-seeking as a core component of the generation process. We employ Monte Carlo      │
 │       Tree Search (MCTS), a powerful algorithm from reinforcement learning, to guide the exploration. The use of MCTS for complex generation       │
 │       tasks has precedents in areas like programmatic strategy synthesis~\cite{MCTS_strategy_synthesis} and code generation~\cite                  │
 │       {MCTS_code_generation}. By integrating MCTS with a value function that explicitly rewards novelty and progress, our framework provides a     │
 │       robust mechanism to balance exploration of new ideas with the exploitation of promising ones, directly addressing the core challenge of      │
 │       discovering high-quality, novel outputs.                                                                                                     │

# AGENT: 



✦ You've raised an excellent point. Considering the strict page limits of top-tier conferences, the Related Works section indeed needs to be extremely concise, with every sentence serving the core purpose of situating our work.

After reviewing the draft we've generated and your introduction, I've identified several aspects that can be streamlined and optimized:

Streamlining Strategies

 1. Maximize avoidance of repetition with the introduction:
    * Key point: Your introduction has already excellently described the evolution from traditional decoding, CoT to ToT, and pointed out their core deficiencies in evaluation mechanisms.
    * Suggestion: `Subsection 2: Reasoning and Planning Frameworks` is the primary target for streamlining. We don't need to detail what CoT and ToT are again in the Related Works section. We can briefly mention them as background knowledge with a single sentence summarizing "methods such as CoT and ToT have been proposed in the academic community to enhance structured reasoning in LLMs," and then directly move to more advanced comparisons or highlight the essential differences with our approach.

 2. Consolidate similar items and use "packaged" citations:
    * Key point: When introducing work in a certain direction, we don't need to detail each paper individually.
    * Suggestions:
        * In `Subsection 1: Scientific Discovery`, multiple frameworks for "scientific idea generation" (such as SciPIP, Scideator, Chain-of-Ideas) can be categorized together with a single sentence summarizing their common points (for example, "all致力于通过重组文献来生成想法" - "all致力于通过重组文献来生成想法" should be translated as "all致力于通过重组文献来生成想法" which means "all致力于通过重组文献来生成想法"), and then package their citations together \cite{... , ... , ...}. Similarly, multiple "multi-agent" systems can be handled in the same way.
        * In `Subsection 3: Advanced Search and Novelty`, various methods for "enhancing novelty" (such as latent space exploration, multi-view embeddings) can be packaged together.

 3. Strengthen arguments while reducing descriptions:
    * Key point: The core of Related Works is not a "review" but an "argument" - that is, to argue for the uniqueness and necessity of our work.
    * Suggestion: The focus of each paragraph should be "However, these works still have..." or "Unlike these methods, our work...". We can reduce the space used to describe others' work and use more篇幅 to clearly articulate the differences between our approach and theirs.

Unnecessary Points

 * Detailed definitions and principle descriptions of CoT, ToT, ReAct: This part repeats the introduction and is the most reducible.
 * Explanations of basic decoding strategies like Beam Search: Already mentioned in the introduction, can be deleted or mentioned in passing.
 * Separate introductions to each "scientific idea generation" paper: Can be merged, keeping only their commonalities, unless a particular paper has a very direct connection or comparison with our method.

In summary, we can treat every sentence in the Related Works section as an argument serving the core thesis of "why our MCTS method is novel and necessary."

If you agree with the above streamlining approach, I can immediately generate a more compact and sharply argued version for you.

✦ Okay, I will immediately rewrite and overwrite the paper/related_works.tex file according to the streamlined strategy we discussed.

The new version will be more concise with stronger argumentation logic, focusing on the following points:
 1. Significantly streamline the descriptions of works like CoT, ToT, etc. that have already been mentioned in the introduction.
 2. Use bundled citations for similar research in directions such as scientific idea generation, multi-agent systems, and novelty enhancement.
 3. Strengthen the core arguments of each section to highlight the uniqueness of your work (Magellan).

 │     5 - The paradigm of AI for Science has been significantly advanced by Large Language Models (LLMs), which are increasingly leveraged to        │
 │       automate and accelerate scientific discovery. Beyond general applications, a dedicated line of research now focuses on using LLMs for the    │
 │       explicit purpose of scientific idea generation. Frameworks like SciPIP~\cite{wang2024scipip} and Scideator~\cite{chan2024scideator} employ   │
 │       sophisticated retrieval and facet-recombination strategies to synthesize new research concepts from existing literature. Multi-agent         │
 │       systems, such as those proposed by Su et al.~\cite{su2024many} and the SciAgents framework~\cite{ai2024sciagents}, mimic collaborative       │
 │       scientific teams to brainstorm and refine ideas. Concurrently, works like Chain-of-Ideas~\cite{li2024chain} organize literature into         │
 │       structured chains to help LLMs capture the evolutionary trajectory of a research domain. While these systems excel at recombining existing   │
 │       knowledge, our work addresses a complementary challenge: navigating the LLM's internal latent space to unearth novel conceptual connections  │
 │       that are not explicitly present in the literature corpus. The fundamental capability of LLMs to generate truly novel ideas has also been a   │
 │       subject of intense study, with large-scale human evaluations~\cite{si2024can} confirming their potential, alongside the development of       │
 │       dedicated benchmarks like IdeaBench~\cite{guo2024ideabench} to systematically assess this capability.                                        │
 │     5 + Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly being utilized to automate and accelerate scientific discovery. A significant research       │
 │       thrust focuses on leveraging LLMs for novel idea generation. One popular approach involves retrieving and recombining elements from          │
 │       existing literature, as seen in frameworks like SciPIP~{wang2024scipip}, Scideator~{chan2024scideator}, and Chain-of-Ideas~{li2024chain}.    │
 │       Another direction mimics scientific collaboration through multi-agent systems that brainstorm and refine ideas~{su2024many,                  │
 │       ai2024sciagents}. The viability of LLMs as innovators has been investigated in large-scale human studies~{si2024can}, and the need for       │
 │       systematic evaluation has led to dedicated benchmarks like IdeaBench~{guo2024ideabench}. While these methods are effective at exploring      │
 │       combinations of known concepts, our work focuses on navigating the LLM's internal latent space to unearth novel conceptual connections not   │
 │       explicitly present in any corpus.                                                                                                            │

 │     8 - To overcome the limitations of simple, linear generation, several frameworks have been developed to endow LLMs with more sophisticated     │
 │       reasoning and planning capabilities. Chain-of-Thought (CoT)~\cite{wei2022chain} was a foundational step, improving reasoning by prompting    │
 │       models to generate intermediate steps. Building on this, ReAct~\cite{yao2023react} integrates reasoning with the use of external tools,      │
 │       allowing models to ground their thought processes in external knowledge. A significant leap was made by frameworks that model reasoning as   │
 │       a search problem. Tree of Thoughts (ToT)~\cite{yao2023tree} and the more recent Graph of Thoughts (GoT)~\cite{besta2024graph} structure the  │
 │       generation process as an exploration of a tree or graph, where nodes represent intermediate thoughts. These frameworks allow for             │
 │       backtracking and exploration of multiple reasoning paths. Similarly, GraphEval~\cite{zhang2024grapheval} utilizes a graph-based structure    │
 │       to decompose and evaluate complex ideas. While these methods introduce structured exploration, their search is often guided by simple        │
 │       heuristics (e.g., BFS/DFS) or relies on the LLM's own, often inconsistent, self-evaluation for pruning branches. Our work, Magellan,         │
 │       contributes to this line of research by incorporating a more principled search algorithm, MCTS, guided by an explicit, multi-objective       │
 │       value function, thus addressing the need for a more robust evaluation mechanism during the search.                                           │
 │     8 + As noted in Section~{sec:introduction}, a key research direction has been to add more structure to the LLM's reasoning process. While      │
 │       foundational methods like Chain-of-Thought (CoT)~{wei2022chain} and ReAct~{yao2023react} guide the model's thinking, more advanced           │
 │       frameworks explicitly model generation as a search problem. Tree of Thoughts (ToT)~{yao2023tree} and the more recent Graph of Thoughts       │
 │       (GoT)~{besta2024graph} explore complex reasoning paths by structuring thoughts as a tree or graph. However, the search in these frameworks   │
 │       is often guided by simple heuristics (e.g., BFS/DFS) or relies on the LLM's own, often inconsistent, self-evaluation to prune branches. Our  │
 │       work contributes to this line of research by replacing these mechanisms with a more principled search algorithm, MCTS, which is governed by  │
 │       an explicit, multi-objective value function, addressing the critical need for a robust evaluation oracle during exploration.                 │
 │     9                                                                                                                                              │
 │    10   \subsection{Advanced Search and Novelty in Generation}                                                                                     │
 │    11 - Enhancing the novelty and diversity of LLM outputs is a critical area of research. Traditional decoding methods like beam search~\cite     │
 │       {graves2012sequence} offer a limited form of exploration. More advanced techniques aim to explicitly steer generation towards novelty. This  │
 │       includes methods that leverage latent space exploration~\cite{gao2024large} or use multi-view embeddings to enrich the input prompt~\cite    │
 │       {holm2024enhancing}. The challenge of novelty has also spurred the creation of specialized evaluation benchmarks, such as NoveltyBench~\     │
 │       cite{zhang2024noveltybench}, and dedicated frameworks for novelty assessment~\cite{lin2024evaluating, liu2024harnessing}. Our approach       │
 │       aligns with this research direction by formalizing novelty-seeking as a core component of the generation process. We employ Monte Carlo      │
 │       Tree Search (MCTS), a powerful algorithm from reinforcement learning, to guide the exploration. The use of MCTS for complex generation       │
 │       tasks has precedents in areas like programmatic strategy synthesis~\cite{MCTS_strategy_synthesis} and code generation~\cite                  │
 │       {MCTS_code_generation}. By integrating MCTS with a value function that explicitly rewards novelty and progress, our framework provides a     │
 │       robust mechanism to balance exploration of new ideas with the exploitation of promising ones, directly addressing the core challenge of      │
 │       discovering high-quality, novel outputs.                                                                                                     │
 │    11 + Enhancing the novelty and diversity of LLM outputs is a core challenge, which has been quantified by benchmarks such as                    │
 │       NoveltyBench~{zhang2024noveltybench}. Various techniques have been proposed to address this, including diversifying prompts via multi-view   │
 │       embeddings~{holm2024enhancing} or directly exploring the model's latent space~{gao2024large}. The assessment of novelty itself is also a     │
 │       significant research area~{lin2024evaluating, liu2024harnessing}. Rather than treating novelty as a post-processing or diversification       │
 │       goal, our work integrates it into the generation process itself. We employ Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), a powerful algorithm from         │
 │       reinforcement learning renowned for balancing the exploration-exploitation dilemma. MCTS has a strong precedent in complex generative        │
 │       domains, including strategic synthesis~{silver2016mastering} and agentic planning~{shinn2024reflexion}. By integrating MCTS with a           │
 │       landscape-aware value function that explicitly rewards novelty and progress, Magellan performs a strategic, goal-directed search for         │
 │       globally innovative solutions.                                                                                                               │

✦ The file paper/related_works.tex has been updated to a more concise version.

  The new version strictly follows our discussion, mainly streamlining the repetitive descriptions of CoT/ToT, bundling citations for similar research, and strengthening the core arguments of your method. We hope this version better meets the requirements of top conferences regarding length and argument density.

  What should we do next?

# USER: 

╭─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╮

│  > 1. The length is still a bit long, can you merge the 3 points into 2 points? 2. Please note, what you write should be in TeX syntax format  │
╰─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯


# AGENT: 

✦ Okay, let's continue to streamline. Merging the three points into two is a great idea, as it makes the logical chain more compact and the argument more impactful.

Regarding TeX syntax, please rest assured that I will ensure all outputs strictly follow it.

Two-paragraph streamlined plan

I suggest merging the original three points as follows to create a clear contrast between "Problem Background + General Solutions" and "Our Core Technical Solution":

1. LLMs for Scientific Discovery and Structured Reasoning (Large Language Models for Scientific Discovery and Structured Reasoning)
   * Content: This section will merge the previous first and second points. First, it will start by highlighting the applications and challenges of LLMs in the field of scientific ideation generation (citing SciPIP, Scideator, IdeaBench, etc.). Then, it will seamlessly transition to pointing out that to address such complex tasks, the academic community has proposed a series of structured reasoning frameworks, such as CoT, ToT, GoT, etc. In this way, we will bind the "application domain" and "general advanced solutions" together to form the "background" for our work. Finally, in one sentence, it will point out the fundamental limitations of these general approaches in search/evaluation strategies, setting the stage for the introduction of our method in the next section.

2. Advanced Search for Novelty and Diversity (Advanced Search Born for Novelty and Diversity)
   * Content: This section will basically retain and condense the content of the previous third point, serving as the core technical positioning of our method. It will focus on the key challenge of "novelty" (citing NoveltyBench, etc.) and指出 that traditional decoding strategies cannot solve it. Then, it will directly introduce MCTS as our proposed, more fundamental solution, emphasizing its advantages in balancing "exploration-exploitation" and its successful precedents in other complex generation tasks. This makes the technical innovation of our method self-evident.

This two-paragraph structure allows the first paragraph to depict the "macroscopic picture and existing arsenal," while the second paragraph showcases "our unique weapon," creating a clear contrast and focused argument.

 │     5 - Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly being utilized to automate and accelerate scientific discovery. A significant research       │
 │       thrust focuses on leveraging LLMs for novel idea generation. One popular approach involves retrieving and recombining elements from          │
 │       existing literature, as seen in frameworks like SciPIP~{wang2024scipip}, Scideator~{chan2024scideator}, and Chain-of-Ideas~{li2024chain}.    │
 │       Another direction mimics scientific collaboration through multi-agent systems that brainstorm and refine ideas~{su2024many,                  │
 │       ai2024sciagents}. The viability of LLMs as innovators has been investigated in large-scale human studies~{si2024can}, and the need for       │
 │       systematic evaluation has led to dedicated benchmarks like IdeaBench~{guo2024ideabench}. While these methods are effective at exploring      │
 │       combinations of known concepts, our work focuses on navigating the LLM's internal latent space to unearth novel conceptual connections not   │
 │       explicitly present in any corpus.                                                                                                            │

 │     5 + The automation of scientific discovery, particularly for novel idea generation, has become a key application for LLMs. One major research  │
 │       thrust synthesizes new concepts by retrieving and recombining facets of existing literature~\cite{wang2024scipip, chan2024scideator,         │
 │       li2024chain}. Another direction mimics scientific collaboration using multi-agent systems to brainstorm and refine ideas~\cite{su2024many,   │
 │       ai2024sciagents}. The viability of LLMs as innovators is underscored by large-scale human studies~\cite{si2024can} and the creation of       │
 │       dedicated benchmarks~\cite{guo2024ideabench}. To tackle such complex, multi-step tasks, the community has developed structured reasoning     │
 │       frameworks. These have evolved from linear Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting~\cite{wei2022chain} and tool-augmented reasoning~\cite           │
 │       {yao2023react} to more dynamic search over a Tree or Graph of Thoughts (ToT/GoT)~\cite{yao2023tree, besta2024graph}. However, the efficacy   │
 │       of these search-based methods is often constrained by simple heuristics or a reliance on the LLM's own inconsistent self-evaluation to       │
 │       guide exploration~\cite{zhang2024grapheval}, a limitation our work directly addresses.                                                       │
 │     6                                                                                                                                              │
 │     7 - \subsection{Reasoning and Planning Frameworks for LLMs}                                                                                    │
 │     8 - As noted in Section~{sec:introduction}, a key research direction has been to add more structure to the LLM's reasoning process. While      │
 │       foundational methods like Chain-of-Thought (CoT)~{wei2022chain} and ReAct~{yao2023react} guide the model's thinking, more advanced           │
 │       frameworks explicitly model generation as a search problem. Tree of Thoughts (ToT)~{yao2023tree} and the more recent Graph of Thoughts       │
 │       (GoT)~{besta2024graph} explore complex reasoning paths by structuring thoughts as a tree or graph. However, the search in these frameworks   │
 │       is often guided by simple heuristics (e.g., BFS/DFS) or relies on the LLM's own, often inconsistent, self-evaluation to prune branches. Our  │
 │       work contributes to this line of research by replacing these mechanisms with a more principled search algorithm, MCTS, which is governed by  │
 │       an explicit, multi-objective value function, addressing the critical need for a robust evaluation oracle during exploration.                 │
 │     9 -                                                                                                                                            │
 │    10 - \subsection{Advanced Search and Novelty in Generation}                                                                                     │
 │    11 - Enhancing the novelty and diversity of LLM outputs is a core challenge, which has been quantified by benchmarks such as                    │
 │       NoveltyBench~{zhang2024noveltybench}. Various techniques have been proposed to address this, including diversifying prompts via multi-view   │
 │       embeddings~{holm2024enhancing} or directly exploring the model's latent space~{gao2024large}. The assessment of novelty itself is also a     │
 │       significant research area~{lin2024evaluating, liu2024harnessing}. Rather than treating novelty as a post-processing or diversification       │
 │       goal, our work integrates it into the generation process itself. We employ Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), a powerful algorithm from         │
 │       reinforcement learning renowned for balancing the exploration-exploitation dilemma. MCTS has a strong precedent in complex generative        │
 │       domains, including strategic synthesis~{silver2016mastering} and agentic planning~{shinn2024reflexion}. By integrating MCTS with a           │
 │       landscape-aware value function that explicitly rewards novelty and progress, Magellan performs a strategic, goal-directed search for         │
 │       globally innovative solutions.                                                                                                               │

 │     8 + A central challenge in generative AI is ensuring the novelty and diversity of outputs, a problem quantified by benchmarks like             │
 │       NoveltyBench~\cite{zhang2024noveltybench}. Various techniques aim to enhance novelty, such as by diversifying                                │

✦ Okay, I have carefully read the "Background" section of insight.txt.

  The "Background" section provides a very clear and insightful core motivation by describing the inherent limitations of LLM generation (tendency toward high-probability areas, difficulty in producing breakthrough innovations) and MCTS as a "navigator" conducting strategic search in the "semantic possibility space".

  Although related_works.tex is already concise, we can more directly integrate these core motivations and metaphors into the introduction of our method (MCTS), making them more prominent and persuasive in Related Works without repeating the introduction.

  I will mainly optimize in the second subsection "Advanced Search for Novelty and Diversity", more clearly positioning MCTS as a "strategic navigator" that solves the LLM problem of "getting stuck in high-probability areas".

  Now, I will update the paper/related_works.tex file for you.

╰──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╯


# AGENT: 

✦ Okay, I understand. I will avoid metaphors and directly extract the core arguments from the "Background" section of insight.txt to optimize the description of related work in related_works.tex, thereby more directly highlighting the value of our algorithm.

The "Background" section of insight.txt emphasizes that LLMs tend to follow high-probability paths during generation, making it difficult to produce breakthrough, cross-domain innovative ideas. True innovation emerges in the "sparse zones" that the model rarely traverses. Existing methods fail to effectively guide LLMs to escape this "gravity well" and conduct strategic searches.

Based on this, I suggest making the following two modifications to related_works.tex to more directly reinforce the necessity and advantages of our algorithm:

 1. Optimize the critique of existing structured reasoning frameworks in `Subsection 1: LLMs for Scientific Discovery and Structured Reasoning`:
    * Original sentence: However, the efficacy of these search-based methods is often constrained by simple heuristics or a reliance on the LLM's own inconsistent
         self-evaluation to guide exploration~\cite{zhang2024grapheval}, a limitation our work directly addresses.

* Changed to: However, while these methods introduce structured exploration, they often struggle to effectively guide LLMs away from high-probability, common
         ideas towards truly novel, less explored conceptual spaces. Their efficacy is constrained by simple heuristics or a reliance on the LLM's own inconsistent
         self-evaluation~\cite{zhang2024grapheval}, a limitation our work directly addresses.
       * Reason: It directly points out that existing methods fail to address the issue of LLMs' tendency toward high-probability paths and fail to effectively explore "sparse regions," thereby setting up the value of our algorithm (guiding exploration of sparse regions).

   2. Optimize the discussion on introducing MCTS in `Subsection 2: Advanced Search for Novelty and Diversity`:
       * Original sentence: Our work proposes a more foundational solution by incorporating Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), a powerful algorithm from reinforcement learning
         renowned for its ability to balance the exploration-exploitation dilemma.
Change to: Our work proposes a more foundational solution by incorporating Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), a powerful algorithm from reinforcement learning
         renowned for its ability to balance the exploration-exploitation dilemma. This allows MCTS to systematically guide the LLM to discover and deepen novel,
         less explored scientific ideas, moving beyond the limitations of prior approaches.
       * Reason: Clearly explain how MCTS addresses the problems raised above, namely that it can systematically guide LLMs to discover and develop novel, less-explored scientific ideas, thereby highlighting its value as a "navigator".

  These modifications will directly integrate the core arguments from insight.txt regarding the limitations of LLM generation into the critique of related work and the introduction of our algorithm, making the argument more coherent and persuasive.

  If you agree to these modifications, I will immediately update the paper/related_works.tex file.

✦ Thank you very much for your specific corrections! I fully understand the key points you want to emphasize, and I apologize for any previous misunderstandings. These specific critical points from your insight.txt are precisely the "cutting edge" that best highlights the value of our algorithm in Related Works.

I will make precise optimizations to related_works.tex based on the three points you mentioned, directly incorporating these descriptions of the limitations of existing methods into the text, thereby more clearly highlighting the advantages of our algorithm.

Suggested modification plan:

 1. Critique regarding element reorganization (Paper 10, 7):
     * Location: The part discussing element reorganization in Subsection 1: LLMs for Scientific Discovery and Structured Reasoning.
     * Modification: After mentioning wang2024scipip and chan2024scideator, add a critique regarding their implementation lacking underlying mathematical control.
     * Specific modification:
         * Original sentence: One major research thrust synthesizes new concepts by retrieving and recombining facets of existing literature~\cite{wang2024scipip,
             chan2024scideator, li2024chain}.
Changed to: One major research thrust synthesizes new concepts by retrieving and recombining facets of existing literature~\cite{wang2024scipip,
             chan2024scideator, li2024chain}. However, these approaches often rely on the LLM's textual understanding and splicing, lacking the underlying
             mathematical control needed for precise conceptual navigation.


2. Critique of Prompt Engineering (Multi-Novelty - Paper 1, 11):
   * Location: The part discussing diversified prompts in Subsection 2: Advanced Search for Novelty and Diversity.
   * Modification: After mentioning holm2024enhancing, add a critique that it is limited by manifold structure and struggles to escape the "gravity wells".
   * Specific modification:
       * Original sentence: Various techniques aim to enhance novelty, such as by diversifying prompts~\cite{holm2024enhancing} or exploring the model's latent
             space~\cite{gao2024large}, while the assessment of novelty itself remains an active research area~\cite{lin2024evaluating, liu2024harnessing}.
Modify to: Various techniques aim to enhance novelty. Some diversify prompts via multi-view embeddings~\cite{holm2024enhancing}, which, while providing
             multiple entry points, remain constrained by the LLM's existing knowledge manifold and struggle to escape high-probability conceptual regions.

3. Critique of simple latent space exploration (Paper 9):
       * Location: The part discussing latent space exploration in Subsection 2: Advanced Search for Novelty and Diversity.
       * Modification: After mentioning gao2024large, add a critique that it can only move between known points and cannot open up entirely new directions.
       * Specific modification:
           * Continuing from the previous modification, immediately follow the critique of gao2024large: Others explore the model's latent space through simple interpolation~\cite{gao2024large}, but this
             primarily navigates between known points rather than forging truly new conceptual paths.

The beginning part of the integrated Subsection 2 will become:

  assessment of novelty itself also remains an active research area~\cite{lin2024evaluating, liu2024harnessing}.


These modifications will make related_works.tex more critical, more directly pointing out the shortcomings of existing methods, thereby providing a more solid foundation for the innovation and necessity of our algorithm.

If you agree with these specific modifications, I will immediately update the paper/related_works.tex file.

# AGENT: 

✦ Your reminder is very timely and important. I fully agree that we cannot mechanically apply approaches, but need to deeply understand and analyze the best integration points.

After carefully re-analyzing these key insights you provided and comparing them with the current content of related_works.tex, I found that these critical points are indeed best integrated immediately after the specific methods they criticize. This creates the most direct and powerful contrast, avoids vague generalizations, and prevents the critical points from being concentrated in one place and losing their targeted nature.

Below is the modification plan that I have reconfirmed and suggest, which is consistent with my previous proposal, but this time I will explain in more detail why these positions are optimal:

  1. Critique of element reorganization (Paper 10, 7):
       * Integration point: In Subsection 1: LLMs for Scientific Discovery and Structured Reasoning, after mentioning element reorganization-based methods such as wang2024scipip and chan2024scideator.
       * Reasoning: The core of these methods is "reorganization," while the critique lies in their "lack of underlying mathematical control." Following immediately with the critique can point out the shortcomings of their generation mechanism and pave the way for our algorithm's "mathematical control" and "precise navigation."
       * Specific modifications:
           * Original sentence: One major research thrust synthesizes new concepts by retrieving and recombining facets of existing literature~\cite{wang2024scipip,
             chan2024scideator, li2024chain}.
Change to: One major research thrust synthesizes new concepts by retrieving and recombining facets of existing literature~\cite{wang2024scipip,
             chan2024scideator, li2024chain}. However, these approaches often rely on the LLM's textual understanding and splicing, lacking the underlying
             mathematical control needed for precise conceptual navigation.

   2. Critique of Prompt Engineering (Multi-Novelty - Paper 1, 11) and simple latent space exploration (Paper 9):
       * Integration point: In Subsection 2: Advanced Search for Novelty and Diversity, after mentioning holm2024enhancing (multi-view input) and gao2024large (latent space exploration).
       * Rationale: Both of these methods aim to enhance novelty, but the critique is that they fail to fundamentally change the way LLMs explore (constrained by manifold structure, or only able to move between known points). Following up with the critique immediately after can highlight the limitations of these "novelty-enhancing" technologies, thereby introducing the necessity of our MCTS as a more "fundamental" solution.
       * Specific modifications:
           * Original sentence: Various techniques aim to enhance novelty, such as by diversifying prompts~\cite{holm2024enhancing} or exploring the model's latent
             space~\cite{gao2024large}, while the assessment of novelty itself remains an active research area~\cite{lin2024evaluating, liu2024harnessing}.
Modify to: Various techniques aim to enhance novelty. Some diversify prompts via multi-view embeddings~\cite{holm2024enhancing}, which, while providing

These revisions will make related_works.tex more critical by more directly pointing out the shortcomings of existing methods, thereby providing a more solid argumentative foundation for the innovation and necessity of our algorithm.

If you agree to these modifications that have been re-analyzed and confirmed, I will immediately update the paper/related_works.tex file.
