CB-Orchestrator: Adaptive Workflow Optimization for LLM Agents via Contextual Bandits

To address these limitations, we propose CB-Orchestrator, an adaptive framework that decouples workflow generation from selection.

Key points

  • Large Language Model (LLM) agents have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in tackling complex tasks through agentic workflows.
  • In the first stage, we construct a diverse pool of candidate workflows via evolutionary search.
  • In the second stage, we formulate workflow selection as a Contextual Bandit problem, which enables sample-efficient learning by balancing exploration and exploitation, thereby significantly reducing the feedback required for training.
  • During inference, the model adaptively selects the optimal workflow tailored to each query.
