arXiv:2607. 26490v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have emerged as a powerful paradigm for solving partial differential equations (PDEs), yet their performance heavily relies on the manual, trial-and-error engineering of neural representations, loss formulations, and optimization dynamics.

G-ReAct is a reasoning framework that frames deep search as state evolution over a fixed-topology query graph, enabling explicit tracking of search progress and constraint preservation. It generates high-quality trajectories for fine-tuning and provides structured guidance during inference without extra fine-tuning. Experiments show that with only 1.9K generated trajectories, a Qwen3 model achieves strong accuracy on BrowseComp-ZH and XBench, outperforming larger open-source baselines, and consistently improves existing LLMs on deep-search tasks.

EvoTreeNAD is a genealogy‑guided evolutionary algorithm that autonomously discovers neural architectures without a predefined seed or search space. Starting from an empty root, it builds a persistent genealogy where each node represents a complete architecture; top‑percentile values from nodes and descendants steer lineage selection. The method combines an Idea Agent that proposes variants and a Code Agent that implements them, with theoretical analysis showing stationary variation regimes and empirical results demonstrating superior performance on CIFAR‑10/100 and MedMNIST‑v2 tasks.

Scientific datasets are commonly organized as hierarchical repositories containing heterogeneous and interdependent files, making their inspection, integration, and analysis labor-intensive and reliant on domain expertise. Although large language model (LLM) agents have advanced substantially in planning, reasoning, and tool use, existing research has largely overlooked their ability to interact with real scientific data assets through executable environments.
AI for Research (AI4Research) leverages AI to automate and improve scientific workflows. While experimental design is a critical stage of the research process, prior work has focused primarily on code implementation and execution, overlooking the importance of this stage, and no benchmark exists to evaluate AI's ability to conduct systematic experiment design.
