Algorithm Generation and Funsearch

Abstract

In my work in helping organize the SL Math Summer School for graduate students on Principled Scientific Discovery with Formal Methods, I gave a lecture and tutorial series on algorithm generation, Funsearch - a DeepMind framework for genetically evolving LLM-sampled algorithms, as well as an implementation of this algorithm from our 2025 Paper on Generative Modeling for Mathematical Discovery.
