LineageEvo enhances LLM-based financial factor mining using evolutionary lineage control

Researchers have developed LineageEvo, a novel method for controlling evolutionary search in large language models (LLMs) for financial factor mining. This approach leverages lineage, which tracks the evolutionary descent of factor variants, to improve search direction and diversity. LineageEvo incorporates lineage-conditioned LLM variation and lineage-stratified search allocation to guide LLM generation and balance factor quality against lineage concentration. Evaluations on CSI 500 and S&P 500 data demonstrated that LineageEvo achieves superior predictive performance and a broader factor pool compared to existing methods. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more efficient and diverse discovery of predictive financial factors using LLMs.
