The paper introduces ORACLE, a method for constrained learning that evaluates constraint compatibility after the optimizer has taken a step, rather than before. ORACLE performs a joint endpoint linearization of diverse constraint families, constructs an alignment in the optimizer’s geometry, bounds its authority, and commits the adjustment only after validation. Experiments on eight PDE benchmarks with four different optimizers show that ORACLE matches or improves performance in 94% of configurations, outperforming other constraint-handling approaches.

MPMMine introduces a comprehensive benchmark suite for Constraint Acquisition (CA) in Mathematical Programming, addressing shortcomings of existing datasets such as inconsistent formats and limited problem classes. The suite offers standardized, extensible artifacts—including multiple model formulations, numerous parameter instantiations, and thousands of solutions and non‑solutions across discrete, continuous, and mixed domains—alongside natural‑language descriptions for text‑to‑model methods. Accompanying tools, the mpmmine‑py API and an interactive leaderboard, enable consistent evaluation of CA algorithms within isolated containers.

The paper introduces SMTrap, a cost‑effective denial‑of‑service attack framework for large reasoning models that does not rely on model feedback or GPU resources. It uses conflict counts from an SMT solver to guide the creation of inference‑heavy constraint satisfaction problem queries, exploiting the models’ backtracking search to induce long output trajectories. Experiments on seven state‑of‑the‑art models show SMTrap achieves DoS effects several times stronger than existing methods, and the authors also present a mitigation tool that reduces token usage.
