Researchers have explored test-time scaling (TTS) for scientific equation discovery, an open-ended task where language models search for equations using data feedback. They formulated LLM-driven equation discovery as an iterative search process, unifying various methods under a compute-allocation framework. Experiments on the LLM-SRBench dataset indicated that search width is the most critical allocation parameter, improving with increased compute budgets and enhancing wall-clock efficiency through parallelism. The findings suggest that controlling exploration and exploitation is key to scaling LLM-based scientific equation discovery when an informative verifier is available. AI
