Insights from Autoresearch for Solar Panel Segmentation

Key points

• The protocol is applied to photovoltaic panel segmentation on a frozen real-image split, with DeepLabV3--ResNet-50 held fixed.1
• Three campaigns of 24 experiments, using Gemma 4 12B, Qwen3-8B all improve their one-hour baselines, but retained modifications do not transfer across hardware.1
• The Qwen3-8B configuration, trained on real images only, reaches a test IoU of 0.836 versus 0.833 for the reference GAN-augmented schedule.1

  This paper investigates AutoResearch, a protocol in which a coding language model edits a training program under a one-hour GPU budget and retains a change only if validation IoU improves.
