MARIC: Multi-Agent Reasoning for Image Classification
Researchers have developed MARIC, a novel multi-agent framework for image classification that enhances performance by treating the task as a collaborative reasoning process. This system employs an Outliner Agent to grasp the image's theme and generate prompts, followed by three Aspect Agents that extract detailed descriptions from different visual perspectives. A final Reasoning Agent then synthesizes these insights with a reflection step to produce a unified classification, outperforming traditional methods and monolithic vision-language models on diverse benchmarks.
