OptiHive: Ensemble Selection for LLM-Based Optimization via Statistical Modeling
Maxime Bouscary, Saurabh Amin
LLM-based solvers have emerged as a promising means of automating problem modeling and solving. However, they remain unreliable and often depend on iterative repair loops that resu…
What Data Enables Optimal Decisions? An Exact Characterization for Linear Optimization
Omar Bennouna, Amine Bennouna, Saurabh Amin +1
We study the fundamental question of how informative a dataset is for solving a given decision-making task. In our setting, the dataset provides partial information about unknown p…
Reducing Contextual Stochastic Bilevel Optimization via Structured Function Approximation
Maxime Bouscary, Jiawei Zhang, Saurabh Amin
Contextual Stochastic Bilevel Optimization (CSBO) extends standard stochastic bilevel optimization (SBO) by incorporating context-dependent lower-level problems. CSBO problems are…
Integrated Bundling and Pricing of Unique Items
Maxime Bouscary, Mazen Danaf, Saurabh Amin
Retailers have significant potential to improve recommendations through strategic bundling and pricing. By taking into account different types of customers and their purchasing dec…
