Decision-Aware Training for Sample-Based Generative Models

arXiv:2607. 01171v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sample-based generative models are increasingly used for probabilistic forecasting in high-stakes decision settings, yet their training objectives are blind to the decision maker's cost structure.

Generative Distributionally Robust Optimization

arXiv:2607. 24983v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Generative models are increasingly adopted in distributionally robust optimization (DRO), but existing approaches trade off model compatibility and adversarial structure: methods that accept arbitrary samplers do not restrict worst-case laws to a generator family, while generator-parameterized adversaries rely on model-specific access such as likelihoods, scores, or training data.

Generative models for decision-making under distributional shift

arXiv:2604. 04342v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Many data-driven decision problems are formulated using a nominal distribution estimated from historical data, while performance is ultimately determined by a deployment distribution that may be shifted, context-dependent, partially observed, or stress-induced.

A Constraint-Aware Generative Framework for Synthetic Origin-Destination Demand in Logistics Networks

The paper introduces a constraint‑aware conditional generative framework for creating synthetic origin‑destination demand data in hierarchical logistics networks. By modeling demand as a conditional distribution over destinations given each origin, the method incorporates differentiable operational constraints directly into the generative objective, allowing topology‑aware synthesis that remains operationally feasible. Experiments on industrial fulfillment and transportation networks show a 16% performance gain over graph neural network baselines, 87% operational compliance, and efficient cold‑start adaptation, supporting capacity planning, network design evaluation, and routing optimization.

Conditional Diffusion Models for Energy-Efficient Driving

The paper presents a conditional diffusion model that generates electric vehicle battery‑current profiles conditioned on route features such as velocity and ambient temperature. Using a latent conditioning encoder and a temporal 1D U‑Net denoising backbone, the model produces realistic current trajectories that capture both the overall envelope and sharp transient events. On a dataset of 12,000 trips from nine vehicles, the model achieves a Wasserstein distance of 0.0029, outperforming direct condition injection by 89.1% in Wasserstein distance and 52.8% in MAE.

Contextual Scenario Generation for Two-Stage Stochastic Programming

arXiv:2502. 05349v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Two-stage stochastic programs (2SPs) are widely used for decision-making under uncertainty, but their practical deployment is often limited by the large number of scenarios needed to approximate the conditional distribution of uncertain outcomes.

A Generative-AI Modeling Framework for Explainable Decision Support in Complex Geosteering Scenarios

The paper presents a real‑time, AI‑driven geosteering workflow that combines Generative Adversarial Networks for geological parameterization, ensemble methods for model updating, and dynamic programming optimization for decision support during directional drilling. The framework uses offline GAN training to generate realistic geology realizations and a Forward Neural Network to predict Logging‑While‑Drilling tool responses, enabling progressive reduction of subsurface uncertainty around the drilling bit. Tested on a low‑net‑to‑gross drilling scenario, the prototype delivers steering recommendations and automatically maps formation boundaries along the well path.
