Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) is a fundamental problem class in operations research and combinatorial optimization, with broad applications to industrial decision-making. Owing to their NP-hardness, however, modern solvers may struggle to find high-quality solutions for challenging MILP instances within practical time limits.
arXiv:2608. 03041v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approaches for flexible job shop scheduling (FJSP) heavily rely on attention-centric architectures to achieve state-of-the-art performance.

arXiv:2603. 23249v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Efficient scheduling of directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) is a core problem in large-scale data-intensive computing systems, where query plans, data-processing workloads, and computation graphs consist of dependent tasks competing for limited heterogeneous resource pools.

The paper introduces TANGO, a Token‑Aggregated Nonlinear Gating Operator that blends cross‑token mixing and token‑wise transformation in transformer architectures. By computing a nonlinear gate per source token and averaging these gates for each destination, TANGO forms a source‑conditioned linear operator that improves predictive performance. Experiments on web text, formal mathematics, and code show that full‑prefix TANGO achieves the lowest test negative log‑likelihood across 16 settings, while a narrower variant offers substantial throughput gains with only a modest increase in loss.
