Each DuoDiscover worker selects an optimization target and constructs a fast proxy evaluator, called a yardstick.

Why this paper

From Google and 2 others

In one line

DuoDiscover scales autonomous engineering optimization by co-discovering targets and cheap proxy evaluators, while fidelity checks and true evaluations prevent proxy gaming.
