Failure-Guided Co-Evolution of Prompts and Training Data

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.15209v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatic prompt optimization (APO) improves language-model programs by revising prompts from task feedback, yet it typically holds its training data fixed. Repeatedly optimizing against the same instances confines feedback to weaknesses already represented in those data, leaving related failure conditions unexplored. We therefore view each failure as a dual signal: it indicates both how the prompt should be revised and what new training evidence should be synthesized. We introduce FORGE, a failure-guided framework that co-evolves prompts and training data. FORGE abstracts imperfect executions into reusable failure modes and synthesizes new training data through four complementary mutation strategies. Verified instances are fed back into pr
