Researchers from Princeton University, Ant Group, and Stanford University have developed AQuA, a system designed to improve the reliability of AI agents in quantitative research. AQuA separates the research process into two independent systems: one for symbolic factor research and another for trainable models. This separation ensures that experimental results are reproducible and not skewed by data leakage or overfitting, by keeping data paths and evaluation rules stable while allowing the agents to adapt their research strategies based on validated findings. The system demonstrated strong performance, with Part I achieving a Spearman IC of approximately 0.190 on crypto assets and Part II yielding a per-stock IC of +0.0843 on US stock future returns, leading to a Sharpe ratio of up to 2.50.
