EditSR: Enhancing Neural Symbolic Regression via Edit-based Rectification

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2606. 07915v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Neural symbolic regression models improve inference efficiency by shifting structural search to pretraining, but their one-pass autoregressive decoding is prone to error accumulation, which may lead to generating structurally incorrect expressions, especially in complex expression generation scenarios.

MOSAIC-SR: Transformer-Guided Symbolic Regression for Scientific Equation Recovery

MOSAIC‑SR is a new symbolic regression method that combines a pretrained Transformer with search‑based refinement. The Transformer generates multiple initial sketches, which seed searches that jointly recover equation structure and constants using scale‑aware optimization and symbolic repair. On the SRSD‑Feynman dataset and six other benchmarks, MOSAIC‑SR achieves the highest symbolic solution rate and ranks among the top two in predictive accuracy, even when irrelevant dummy variables are present.

InsightSR: Refining Symbolic Regression Search Spaces via Parallel Semantic and Structural LLM Guidance

InsightSR is a new framework that integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) with the PySR genetic programming engine to refine symbolic regression search spaces. It employs two LLM-guided pathways: a Semantic Seed Pathway that generates dimensionally consistent functional skeletons, and a Structural Feature Pathway that suggests nonlinear feature transformations. Over successive iterations, these pathways expand the input space and shift the search toward shallow, semantically informed trees, with a feedback loop that evaluates and refines candidate features. The method achieves a 95% exact recovery rate on the Feynman benchmark and 80.18% accuracy on the LLM-SRBench LSR-Transform task, outperforming existing genetic programming and neural-symbolic approaches while preserving strong out-of-distribution generalization.
