arXiv:2608. 06714v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent systems for optimizing prompts, programs, and ML workflows typically rely on explicit outer-loop controllers such as evolutionary search, bandits, or textual-gradient methods.
Recent systems for optimizing prompts, programs, and ML workflows typically rely on explicit outer-loop controllers such as evolutionary search, bandits, or textual-gradient methods. We ask a fundamentally different question: how much of this search policy can be internalized by a single tool-using agent?
arXiv:2608. 12841v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study recursive self-improvement at the level of quantitative-investment research: whether an autonomous system can use evidence from earlier experiments to improve the hypotheses and candidates proposed in later iterations.
arXiv:2609.38445v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Frontier LLMs are increasingly used to automate scientific research through iterative search. We distinguish idea-driven search from solution-driven se...
arXiv:2608. 10424v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A slew of recent works develop agents for solving research problems end-to-end, a paradigm increasingly referred to as autoresearch.
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.
