Agon: An Autonomous Large-Scale Omnidisciplinary Research System Built on Prompt Economy

Youran Sun, Xingyu Ren, Chugang Yi, Jiaxuan Guo, Kejia Zhang, Jianda Du, Haizhao Yang

The world has entered the age of agents, yet prompt engineering is still the Wild West, with no shared rules of thumb. We distill six design principles for autonomous research, anchored by Prompt Economy: stop writing prompts for single tasks, and start building reusable loops. On this foundation we built Agon, an omnidisciplinary AI Scientist whose deployments reveal many intriguing phenomena, including agent emergence, and we map recurring failure modes into a boundary map. Our dream: human navigates, AI drives.

Finite Expression Method with TranNet-based Function Learning for High-Dimensional PDEs

Toan Huynh, Feng Bao, Haizhao Yang, Ahmed Zytoon

This project turns intimidating PDEs into a formula hunt that feels almost cinematic. FEX searches through expression space while TranNet supplies learned mathematical operators, giving the solver a richer bag of tricks than hand written symbols alone. The payoff is bold and visual: huge equations become compact shapes people can inspect, reuse, and understand.
