ORPilot is the first agentic LLM system built specifically for production optimization modeling, using interview, data collection, parameter computation agents and a solver-agnostic intermediate representation to handle real-world ambiguous problems and large raw datasets.
Graph-grounded optimization sources problem elements from knowledge graphs and shows Rao-family metaheuristics plus OR-tools perform differently across seven real-world KG-backed problems while surfacing data issues.
HMACE deploys Proposer, Generator, Evaluator, and Reflector agents in an evolutionary loop to generate and refine heuristics for NP-hard problems, reporting lower optimality gaps and token costs than baselines on TSP and Online BPP.
