Deep symbolic regression: Recovering mathematical expressions from data via risk-seeking policy gradients

ICLR 2021oral

Discovering the underlying mathematical expressions describing a dataset is a core challenge for artificial intelligence. This is the problem of $\textit{symbolic regression}$. Despite recent advances in training neural networks to solve complex tasks, deep learning approaches to symbolic regression…

Discovering symbolic policies with deep reinforcement learning

ICML 2021spotlight

Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has proven successful for many difficult control problems by learning policies represented by neural networks. However, the complexity of neural network-based policies{—}involving thousands of composed non-linear operators{—}can render them problematic to understand…

Symbolic Regression via Deep Reinforcement Learning Enhanced Genetic Programming Seeding

NeurIPS 2021poster

Symbolic regression is the process of identifying mathematical expressions that fit observed output from a black-box process. It is a discrete optimization problem generally believed to be NP-hard. Prior approaches to solving the problem include neural-guided search (e.g. using reinforcement learnin…
