ReDAct: Uncertainty-Aware Deferral for LLM Agents

Dzianis Piatrashyn, Nikita Kotelevskii, Kirill Grishchenkov et al.

Recently, LLM-based agents have become increasingly popular across many applications, including complex sequential decision-making problems. However, they inherit the tendency of LLMs to hallucinate, leading to incorrect decisions. In sequential settings, even a single mistake can irreversibly degrade the trajectory, making hallucinations an even bigger problem. Although larger LLMs hallucinate less, they incur a significantly higher per-token cost. In this paper, we address this tradeoff by proposing ReDAct (Reason-Defer-Act). In ReDAct, an agent is equipped with two LLMs: a small, cheap model used by default, and a large, more reliable but expensive model. When the predictive uncertainty of the small model exceeds a calibrated threshold, the decision is deferred to the large model. We evaluate our approach in text-based embodied environments such as ALFWorld and MiniGrid and show that deferring only about 15% of decisions to the large model can match the quality of using it exclusively, while significantly reducing inference costs.

Hierarchical AI-Meteorologist: LLM-Agent System for Multi-Scale and Explainable Weather Forecast Reporting

Daniil Sukhorukov, Andrei Zakharov, Nikita Glazkov et al.

We present the Hierarchical AI-Meteorologist, an LLM-agent system that generates explainable weather reports using a hierarchical forecast reasoning and weather keyword generation. Unlike standard approaches that treat forecasts as flat time series, our framework performs multi-scale reasoning across hourly, 6-hour, and daily aggregations to capture both short-term dynamics and long-term trends. Its core reasoning agent converts structured meteorological inputs into coherent narratives while simultaneously extracting a few keywords effectively summarizing the dominant meteorological events. These keywords serve as semantic anchors for validating consistency, temporal coherence and factual alignment of the generated reports. Using OpenWeather and Meteostat data, we demonstrate that hierarchical context and keyword-based validation substantially improve interpretability and robustness of LLM-generated weather narratives, offering a reproducible framework for semantic evaluation of automated meteorological reporting and advancing agent-based scientific reasoning.
