OptiMUS-0.3: Using Large Language Models to Model and Solve Optimization Problems at Scale
arXiv:2407. 19633v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Optimization problems are pervasive in sectors from manufacturing and distribution to healthcare.
arXiv:2606. 15577v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly involved in complex mathematical optimization, even if the pragmatic user who triggers them is unaware of it.

arXiv:2608. 02641v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) can translate natural-language optimization problems into solver-ready formulations, but direct code generation is brittle: schema, indexing, and semantic errors can cause compilation failures, infeasible models, or incorrect objectives, while iterative repair, search, and multi-agent workflows increase inference cost.
arXiv:2509. 08269v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly integrated with evolutionary computation to support optimization tasks.
arXiv:2607. 20474v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Natural language interfaces can greatly benefit the accessibility and usability of optimization modeling, and recent advances in large language models (LLMs) show promise in automatically translating textual problem descriptions into executable solver formulations.
arXiv:2605. 25246v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for optimization modeling and solver-code generation, yet practical operations research and optimization problems often require a harder capability: designing scalable algorithms that exploit problem structure and outperform direct formulation-and-solve baselines.
arXiv:2607. 18256v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Optimization modeling is the process of translating real-world decision problems, often described in natural language, into formal mathematical formulations and executable solver code.
arXiv:2607. 20520v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly evaluated on mathematical problem solving, yet prior work often treats representationally equivalent formulations as interchangeable and conflates reasoning errors with interface failures.
arXiv:2608. 02612v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Formulating an optimization problem strongly affects the quality of the final solution, yet good formulations usually require substantial expertise.
arXiv:2602. 15983v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) can translate natural language into optimization code, but silent failures pose a critical risk: code that executes and returns solver-feasible solutions may encode semantically incorrect formulations---a feasibility--correctness gap reaching 90 percentage points on compositional problems.
arXiv:2607. 10768v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM-based agents are increasingly deployed to solve optimization problems, yet existing benchmarks evaluate them on pre-structured mathematical formulations that bypass the most critical challenge: translating complex business requirements into correct models and solve efficiently.
arXiv:2601. 21372v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present NEMO, a system that translates Natural-language descriptions of decision problems into formal Executable Mathematical Optimization implementations using autonomous coding agents (ACAs).
arXiv:2605. 21751v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Text-to-optimization requires two separable capabilities: modeling -- choosing the right optimization structure -- and binding -- grounding every coefficient, index, and parameter in the concrete problem data.
