Google’s DeepMind claims that its AlphaProof and AlphaGeometry 2 Google AI models are pioneering advanced ways of solving International Mathematical Olympiad problems, a blind spot of most current AI chatbots.
Google AI tool: Alphaproof
AlphaProof is a system for computing with functions and when faced with a problem it comes up with solution candidates and then validates or refutes them, through searching through the space of ‘proof steps’ in Lean. Every proof that was discovered and confirmed is integrated into AlphaProof’s language model to improve the solution of the next, more complex tasks.
AlphaGeometry 2
AlphaGeometry 2 is actually a new developed and better enhanced version of AlphaGeometry. It means that it is the neuro-symbolic hybrid system where the language model was based on Gemini, and the model was trained from scratch on significantly more synthetic data than it occurred in the previous case. This allowed the model to deal with far more complex geometry inquiries, such as inquiries about the movement of items as well as equations of angle, ratio or distance.
Mathematical solving of the Alphaproof and AlphaGeometry 2
By means of the formalized network, approximately one million informal mathematical problems are translated into a formal mathematical language. Subsequently, a solver network looks for proofs or refutations regarding the problems put forward and refines itself with the help of the AlphaZero algorithm for solving tougher problems.
First, they formulated these problems in the language that our system could comprehend through translating the English-worded problems into formal mathematical expressions.
In the case of the official competition, the answers are provided in two sessions of 4. 5 hours each. While addressing the first question, the systems provided the response within a few minutes; in contrast, they took up to three days for the others.
AlphaProof confirmed the solution to two algebra problems and to one number theory problem. This included the hardest problem in the competition, for which the solution was provided by only five students at this year’s IMO. Compared with AlphaGeometry 1, AlphaGeometry 2 gave a positive result to the geometry problem, and the two combinatorics problems were still open.
All six of the problems may be scored up to seven points and the total number of points possible is 42. The resulting score of the system was 28, which is the equivalent of the silver-medal category especially that it received flawless scores in the solved problems. This year the gold-medal passing point is 29, sixty of 609 contestants receiving it during the official contest.
Another activity that has also gained widespread recognition is the annual International Mathematical Olympiad, IMO competition as a grand challenge in machine learning and benchmark AI system for advertising its high-end mathematical reasoning capacities.
The annual International Mathematical Olympiad, IMO competition has also become recognized as one of the great challenges for machine learning and an ideal reference point for evaluating an AI system’s high-level mathematical problem-solving capacity.
