GenOR-Twin: A Semantic Middleware for Integrating Operational Discourse with Mathematical Optimization

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

GenOR‑Twin is a neuro‑symbolic middleware that translates unstructured operational logs into formal constraints for mathematical optimization. It uses Large Language Models as semantic translators, not direct solvers, preserving the feasibility guarantees of exact combinatorial methods. The system dynamically injects constraints in real time, couples operational observations with a virtual model, and adapts its decision policy between schedule repair and full re‑optimization, demonstrating applicability across six optimization domains.

Improving Natural-Language Combinatorial-Optimization Accuracy in Resource-Constrained Language Models via Formal Abstractions

The paper introduces SDDL, a neuro‑symbolic framework that converts natural‑language combinatorial scheduling problems into compact, solver‑aligned representations, delegating low‑level modeling and search to a deterministic compiler and external solver. On a 300‑instance subset of scheduling tasks, SDDL achieves higher feasibility rates for resource‑constrained language models—up to 55.3% and 28.3%—compared to direct‑generation baselines (23.7% and 1.3%) and solver‑code baselines (21.7% and 7.0%), with a median optimality gap of 0.0% among feasible schedules.

IR2Solve: Structured Intermediate Representations for Cost-Efficient Optimization Autoformulation

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.
