Translating finite-domain integer constraint models to CP/SMT/ILP/PB/SAT solvers with CPMpy

Tias Guns, Ignace Bleukx, Hendrik Bierlee +8

Constraint solving is a declarative approach for solving combinatorial satisfaction and optimization problems. The user specifies their problem through constraints and decision var…

LLM-Guided Evolutionary Search for Constraint Model Reformulation to Improve Solver Efficiency

Kostis Michailidis, Dimos Tsouros, Nguyen Dang +1

The paper explores using large language models within an evolutionary search framework to automatically reformulate constraint models for faster solving, introducing a diversity‑pr…

Scaling Decision-Focused Learning to Large Problems with Lagrangian Decomposition

Stéphane Eilles-Chan Way, Hugo Percot, Quentin Cappart +2

Decision-focused learning has shown great promise for addressing predict-then-optimize problems, particularly in the presence of under-specified models. However, its practical depl…

Score Function Gradient Estimation to Widen the Applicability of Decision-Focused Learning

Mattia Silvestri, Senne Berden, Jayanta Mandi +4

Many real-world optimization problems contain parameters that are unknown before deployment time, either due to stochasticity or to lack of information (e.g., demand or travel time…

Scalable Decision-Focused Learning through Cost-Sensitive Regression

Noah Schutte, Senne Berden, Tias Guns +2

Many real-world combinatorial problems involve uncertain parameters, which can be predicted given contextual features and historical data. These `predict-then-optimize' or `context…

DCP-Bench-Open: Evaluating LLMs for Constraint Modelling of Discrete Combinatorial Problems

Kostis Michailidis, Dimos Tsouros, Tias Guns

Discrete Combinatorial Problems (DCPs) are prevalent in industrial decision-making and optimisation. However, while constraint solving technologies for DCPs have advanced significa…
