This arXiv preprint proposes DASS, a plug-in search layer for symbolic regression that builds a subspace of basis function terms, scores them across multiple environments, and feeds solver outputs back to refine that subspace. The reported gains come from experiments on LLM-SRBench, with a claimed "manageable" runtime cost, so the practical value depends on how those numbers hold up on other benchmarks and real scientific datasets. For ML readers, the main question is whether solver-agnostic guidance can make symbolic regression more accurate without a large efficiency penalty.
DASS: A Solver-Adaptable Dynamic Auxiliary Search Strategy for Symbolic Regression
arXiv:2610.16812v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Symbolic regression (SR) aims to discover interpretable mathematical expressions from data and plays a key role in scientific discovery. However, existing methods face a common bottleneck: the enormous search space and severe combinatorial explosion make it difficult to achieve a favorable trade-off between accuracy and algorithmic efficiency. We argue that, in addition to designing increasingly complex solver-specific SR strategies, an equally promising direction is to equip them with a shareable auxiliary strategy that can provide reliable search guidance. To this end, we propose DASS, a solver-adaptable Dynamic Auxiliary Search Strategy that improves SR by constructing and refining a high-potential auxiliary search subspace. DASS represents the auxiliary search space as a functional subspace spanned by a set of high-potential basis function terms. It estimates term utility through multi-environment evaluation, filters unstable guidance, and updates term potential scores with a Gibbs posterior, thereby calibrating the subspace to provide more reliable guidance for downstream solvers. The high-quality solutions produced by the solver are used to update the set of basis terms. This forms a virtuous closed-loop optimization process: the subspace guides the downstream solver, and the solver feedback reshapes the subspace for subsequent exploration. DASS can be easily integrated with various types of SR solvers. Extensive experiments on LLM-SRBench show that DASS significantly improves the accuracy of original solvers with a manageable increase in runtime.
