Instead, we argue that a novel alternative is to use a glass-box loss function, given as a program itself that can be directly inspected. Glass-box optimization covers a wide range of problems, from computing the greatest common divisor of two integers, to learning-to-learn problems.\n  In this paper, we present an intelligent search system which learns, given the partial program and the glass-box problem, the probabilities over the space of programs.
