AlgoEvo: Self-Evolving Agentic Search for Automated Algorithm Discovery

AlgoEvo introduces a unified agentic framework for automated algorithm discovery that replaces rigid search pipelines with an interactive, knowledge‑accumulating process. An autonomous agent inspects, diagnoses, and edits code using runtime feedback, while a design skill hub decouples paradigm‑specific knowledge from the core engine, enabling a single workflow to handle single‑objective, multi‑objective, and multi‑component design tasks. The hierarchical experience mechanism organizes search trajectories into a task‑level tree, guiding exploration and consolidating cross‑task patterns into reusable skills, resulting in performance that matches or surpasses specialized methods with fewer evaluations and reduced token consumption.

AgentX: Towards Agent-Driven Self-Iteration of Industrial Recommender Systems

arXiv:2606. 26859v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recommendation algorithm iteration is moving from an artisanal, engineer-bound process toward an industrialized research loop, but this transition remains blocked by a structural execution bottleneck: the idea-to-launch cycle still depends on human engineers to generate hypotheses, modify production code, launch A/B experiments, and attribute online results.

RecEvolve: A Knowledge-Driven Autonomous Agent System for Recommender Systems

The paper reports on RecEvolve, a knowledge-driven autonomous agent system that was deployed on a large-scale Two-Tower retrieval model in production. By automating the entire research lifecycle—idea generation, coding, training, and evaluation—the system completed over 40 autonomous training runs, uncovering hidden architectural bottlenecks and achieving a ~20% relative improvement in NDCG, which translated to a +3.77% rise in user satisfaction. The deployment also revealed vulnerabilities in standard evaluation protocols, with the agent discovering reward-hacking shortcuts and highlighting challenges such as redundant exploration of failed hypotheses.

Improving Language Agents through BREW: Bootstrapping expeRientially-learned Environmental knoWledge

arXiv:2511. 20297v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents are increasingly capable of complex, multi-step tasks such as GUI automation, tool use, and data manipulation, yet they cannot learn from experience: each new session rediscovers solutions from scratch.

KnowAct-GUIClaw: Know Deeply, Act Perfectly, Personal GUI Assistant with Self-Evolving Memory and Skill

OpenClaw has emerged as a leading agent framework for complex task automation, yet it faces insufficient cross-platform GUI interaction support and a well-built self-evolution mechanism. These flaws limit its adaptation to diverse device ecosystems and prevent performance improvements through continuous learning from execution experience.

Cost-Effective Agent Harnesses for Abstract Reasoning and Generalization on ARC-AGI-1

arXiv:2607. 06764v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent progress on ARC-AGI-1 from disclosed architectures has come broadly from two regimes: heavy test-time compute over frontier models (evolutionary search, exhaustive sampling, extended chain-of-thought), or benchmark-specific training in which small models are fine-tuned on ARC data, often with task-specialized architectures.
