arXiv:2602. 13769v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Automating heuristic design in complex, experiment-driven domains requires more than iterative mutation of solution algorithms.
By Qi Liu, Ruochen Hao, Can Li, Wanjing Ma
arXiv:2608. 06871v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Complex systems, core objects of study in artificial life, model diverse phenomena through nonlinear, feedback-driven interactions that produce emergent behavior, with applications from population dynamics and biology to economic policy and strategic decision-making.

arXiv:2608. 10504v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As coding agents increasingly handle implementation, the central challenge shifts from building individual agents to building an infrastructure that systematically improves them.

arXiv:2607. 10127v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Evolutionary program search guided by Large Language Models (LLMs) has emerged as a powerful paradigm for automated scientific discovery.
By Xuanzhou Chen, Taoli Cheng
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.
