# LLMRouterBench Submission - A3M Router v2.14.41

## ACL'26 Benchmark Submission

**Repository:** https://github.com/ynulihao/LLMRouterBench
**Stars:** 63 | **Status:** Active research benchmark (ACL 2026 accepted)
**Submission Date:** 2026-06-06
**Version:** 2.14.41 (Enhanced Shapley + Multi-Round Dialog)

---

## Summary

A3M Router (Adaptive Memory Multi-Model Router) is an open-source LLM gateway featuring **parallel multi-LLM execution with enhanced game-theoretic ensemble voting** - a fundamentally different approach from sequential fallback routers.

**NPM:** `npm install adaptive-memory-multi-model-router@2.14.41`

## Key Differentiators

### 1. Enhanced Game-Theoretic Credit Assignment (NEW in v2.14.41)

**Ethnocentrism-based Loyalty Matrix:**
- Models develop trust bonds through successful collaborations
- Math: L[i,j] = EMA of historical success(i with j) with decay rate
- Increases marginal contribution of trusted partners

**Handicap Principle (Zahavi, 1975):**
- Honest signals require costly investment
- Models spending more tokens despite correctness = reliable
- Math: H[i] = cost_i × reliability_i (handicap bonus)

**Combined Credit Formula:**
```
φ_i* = 0.5·Shapley + 0.3·Ethnocentrism + 0.2·Handicap
```

### 2. Multi-Round Dialog Optimization (NEW in v2.14.41)

- Track conversation context over multiple turns
- Topic tracking with dynamic complexity scoring
- Model performance history per topic
- Optimized context building for next query
- Routing hints based on dialog state

### 3. Parallel Multi-LLM Execution (Core USP)

Unlike all other routers (litellm, one-api, LibreChat, gpt-researcher) which use **sequential fallback** (try A → B → C), A3M executes **multiple providers in parallel** and merges results via confidence-weighted voting.

## How to Evaluate

```bash
# Install A3M Router
npm install adaptive-memory-multi-model-router@2.14.41

# Run ensemble with enhanced Shapley
const { EnsembleOrchestrator } = require('adaptive-memory-multi-model-router');
const ensemble = new EnsembleOrchestrator(router);
const result = await ensemble.executeEnsemble(
  query, 
  ['deepseek', 'mistral', 'nvidia'],
  'shapley'  // Use enhanced Shapley voting
);
```
