arXiv:2605. 09382v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The Linear Assignment Problem is a fundamental combinatorial optimization task where classical exact solvers ensure optimality but suffer from an $\mathcal{O}(N^{3})$ bottleneck, while recent neural approximations struggle with scalability and exactness.

arXiv:2603. 02462v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A key challenge in developing unified neural solvers for combinatorial optimization (CO) is the efficient generalization of models from a given set of tasks to new tasks unseen during initial training.

arXiv:2605. 22876v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Existing neural solvers for Multi-Objective Combinatorial Optimization Problems (MOCOPs) commonly adopt decomposition-based strategies that scalarize a MOCOP into multiple subproblems associated with distinct weight vectors.
