英文摘要 (Abstract)
Long-horizon autonomous research has shown promise in accelerating scientific progress through sustained cycles of hypothesis generation, implementation, and validation. However, this Generate-Execute-Feedback paradigm relies on reactive trial-and-error, where costly and time-consuming executions introduce severe feedback delays, throttling evolutionary progress under explosively expanding search space. To address this challenge, we propose JANUS, a framework that unifies future outcomes forecasting and past experience reflection through a Predict-Verify-Evolve loop driven by a co-evolving world model. Within an evolving graph, the research agent proposes candidates while world model scores them by forecasting value improvement, information gain, and exploration utility, then accordingly selects, refines, or prunes branches prior to execution. After receiving ground-truth feedback, JANUS distills experience into evolving skills: hierarchical skills for research agent, exploration-strategy skills for world model, and their coordination protocols. This mechanism enables continual co-evolution: the research agent sharpens candidate generation while the world model refines its predictive judgment over extended horizons. Extensive evaluations on MLS-Bench-Lite and real research tasks demonstrate that JANUS significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, achieving both higher evolving efficiency and ceiling.
