The paper presents an end‑to‑end framework that uses constraint‑oriented hypergraphs and reinforcement learning to solve vehicle routing problems. It introduces a dynamic hyperedge reconstruction strategy for better hypergraph representation and a double‑pointer attention decoder for iterative solution generation. Experiments on benchmark datasets show that the method removes the need for complex heuristic operators while improving solution quality.
