The MC-NEST framework combines Monte Carlo methods with Nash Equilibrium to enable self-refining hypothesis generation that outperforms traditional LLM approaches.

• Integrates game theory principles to balance innovation and scientific validity
• Achieves superior results in biomedical hypothesis generation (2.80 score)
• Creates hypotheses that are both novel and empirically grounded
• Addresses limitations of pure LLM approaches and human intuition alone

This research offers significant potential for accelerating medical discovery by providing researchers with AI-generated hypotheses that meet scientific standards while exploring new possibilities.
