AlphaDiverse: Post-Training Local Quantitative Research Agents for Diverse Exploration in Alpha Factor Mining

AlphaDiverse is a framework that enhances large language model–based multi‑agent systems for alpha factor mining by addressing cost, availability, and confidentiality constraints. It generates diverse research paths through varied environments and post‑training local agents, then fine‑tunes these agents with supervised learning and optimizes them jointly using a GRPO method that balances predictive quality and diversity. The approach limits research feedback to inner‑period data and evaluates a frozen model on outer‑period data to avoid test‑set tuning, demonstrating competitive prediction and broader exploration across four Chinese stock universes.

MAPLE: Efficient and Diverse Multi-Alpha Generation for Portfolio Construction

arXiv:2607. 24131v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Classical alpha mining achieves strong risk-adjusted returns by combining many low-correlated predictive signals, yet deep learning stock-ranking methods typically produce a single alpha per stock, rely on increasingly complex architectures with diminishing gains, and obtain diversity only through separate models or implicit routing, without explicitly controlling inter-alpha correlation.
