Researchers have developed PACEvolve++, a novel framework designed to enhance evolutionary search agents powered by large language models. This system introduces a trainable advisor model that generates, evaluates, and selects hypotheses, while a separate frontier model translates these into executable candidates. PACEvolve++ employs a phase-adaptive approach to optimize the advisor's learning strategy, utilizing group-relative feedback early in the evolutionary process and emphasizing frontier contribution later on for stable refinement. The framework has demonstrated superior performance over existing methods in tasks such as expert-parallel load balancing and protein fitness extrapolation, achieving faster convergence and more stable test-time training.
