arXiv:2608. 11250v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Language models can propose many plausible trading factors, but an autonomous research system must also allocate its evaluation budget, verify its own evidence, and preserve how each candidate was produced.

GoAnt is a quality‑diversity multi‑agent search framework designed for discovering alpha factors in market microstructure data. It employs non‑communicating Explorer, Exploiter, and Connector workers that share an adaptive Mental Map and a Queen dispatcher to allocate evaluation budgets efficiently. On real A‑share data from 2023‑2026, GoAnt achieves significantly higher quality‑weighted yields than baseline methods and maintains strong out‑of‑sample performance.

arXiv:2608. 04872v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Symbolic regression aims to discover closed-form equations from data, but existing LLM-guided methods often rely on a unified proposal loop that compresses heterogeneous search failures into a scalar score and a single prompt.

GoAnt is a quality‑diversity multi‑agent search framework designed to discover alpha factors from market microstructure data. It employs non‑communicating Explorer, Exploiter, and Connector workers that share an adaptive Mental Map and a Queen dispatcher to allocate evaluation budgets efficiently. On real A‑share data from 2023‑2026, GoAnt achieves quality‑weighted yields of 41.8 and 47.6 in price‑volume and order‑book settings, outperforming the best baseline by 57% and 97% under matched budgets.

Abstract: Agent-to-agent (A2A) alpha discovery is slowed by repeated feedback cycles between mining and evaluation agents, whose hand-offs, in contemporary LLM m...

Automated alpha mining has increasingly adopted large language model (LLM) agents for factor generation and iterative discovery. However, existing LLM-based systems often delegate both factor construction and search decisions to the agent itself, without an explicit exploration space or a principled mechanism for navigating that space.
