GraphBU: MILP Instance Generation with Graph-Native Block Units

Xiaolei Guo, Chenyu Zhou, Jianghao Lin +1

Mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) instances used for solver development are hard to obtain when models come from private or application-specific pipelines. A generator must k…

Externalization in LLM Agents: A Unified Review of Memory, Skills, Protocols and Harness Engineering

Chenyu Zhou, Huacan Chai, Wenteng Chen +18

Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly built less by changing model weights than by reorganizing the runtime around them. Capabilities that earlier systems expected the…
