A Domain-Specific Harness for End-to-End Automation of Optimization Research
We present AutoOPT, a domain-specific harness for end-to-end automation of optimization research. AutoOPT organizes the discovery of optimal first-order methods into four stages: numerical design through the BnB-PEP methodology; symbolic discovery of the analytic description and a convergence proof through frontier large language models (LLMs); formal verification in the Lean 4 proof assistant; and human … Read more
