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.

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.

SMILE (Sine, Multiplication, Identity, Logarithm, Exponential) is a hybrid framework that merges continuous gradient-based optimization with discrete symbolic recovery for symbolic regression. It operates in three stages: structural analysis to uncover the compositional hierarchy of the target expression, continuous optimization to learn parameters of a network using interpretable activations, and symbolic recovery via structured pruning, coefficient optimization, and rounding to produce a compact expression with exact symbolic constants. Evaluated on SRBench, SMILE achieves the highest symbolic solution rate under high noise, remains on the Pareto front of accuracy versus complexity, and recovers simpler expressions much faster than competing methods.
