ThetaEvolve: Open-Source Test-Time Learning Framework

burny_tech · x · 2026-07-11

ThetaEvolve is an open-source test-time learning framework. The author describes it as a simplification and extension of the AlphaEvolve concept, aiming to empower small open-source models to perform evolutionary search and reasoning on open-ended problems.

The post claims that using ThetaEvolve, a small model like DeepSeek-R1-0528-Qwen3-8B achieved new best-known bounds on two open problems mentioned in the AlphaEvolve paper: circle packing and first auto-correlation inequality.
