New theory models LLM use in neural architecture search

Researchers have developed a theoretical framework for understanding how large language models (LLMs) can be used in iterative neural architecture search (NAS). The proposed parametric Cross-Entropy method models LLM-NAS as an optimization process over executable programs, proving that architecture quality increases monotonically and that elite-set probability converges geometrically. The study also introduces a delta-based generation technique for higher valid-generation rates and a MinHash-Jaccard novelty filter to prevent mode collapse. Furthermore, it establishes a closed-form solution for proxy reliability, identifying a key condition for trustworthy proxy-based rankings. AI
