The paper introduces an AI-driven Learning-to-Optimise framework that uses Graph Neural Networks to select real‑time multi‑hop relays in NR‑V2X networks for smart cities. By modelling the vehicular network as a graph and training a GINE model with MILP‑derived optimal decisions, the method achieves near‑optimal connectivity, improving connectivity by up to 11.3% and speeding up computation by up to 100×. This enables scalable, real‑time network control suitable for Industry 4.0 and smart‑city deployments.

The paper proposes that Learning-to-Optimize (L2O) should serve as a missing architectural layer in AI-native communication networks, bridging optimisation and AI intelligence. It redefines optimisation algorithms as offline knowledge generators that produce supervisory data for neural surrogate models, enabling low‑latency inference in dynamic environments. A four‑stage workflow—optimisation, knowledge generation, surrogate learning, and runtime inference—is introduced, and demonstrated on an NR‑V2X relay‑selection problem where a Graph Neural Network learns near‑optimal decisions from MILP solutions.

The Traffic Assignment Problem is a fundamental but computationally expensive component of transportation planning. While Graph Neural Networks have emerged as fast, data-driven surrogates, their practical deployment is severely constrained by a spatial generalization gap.
The paper introduces TELGEN, a traffic engineering algorithm that uses graph neural networks to predict an optimal TE algorithm rather than a direct solution. TELGEN generalizes across diverse network topologies and traffic patterns, achieving less than a 3% optimality gap on networks up to 5,000 nodes and 3.6 million links, while reducing solving time by up to 84% and training time by up to 79.6% compared to existing methods.
