Saturating Scaling Laws for Equational Discovery: A Phenomenology of Growth Dynamics in Three Toy Substrates with Two Real-World Replications
The article discusses growth dynamics in deterministic equational discovery substrates across three toy domains. It presents a model predicting saturating power-law growth, emphasizing that dynamics are conditional on the substrate used. The findings suggest that the preferred growth model varies by substrate and that the trajectories do not reach saturation in toy data.
- ▪The study investigates growth dynamics in three toy domains: arithmetic, boolean, and higher-order list.
- ▪A heuristic mean-field closure model predicts a saturating power-law growth pattern.
- ▪The dynamics are substrate-conditional, with different preferred functional families for growth observed.
