Task-CoEvolve Cuts Evaluation Cost by 80% via Adaptive Sampling
burny_tech · x · 2026-08-24
This paper introduces 'Task-CoEvolve,' an optimization method that uses adaptive validation task selection to reduce computational waste. Instead of re-evaluating every candidate on every task, it samples tasks where candidate harnesses disagree most and corrects for this sampling bias to estimate full-set performance. On Terminal-Bench 2.1, it achieves nearly identical final performance with only 20% of the evaluations, reducing search costs by 67-80%.
