This paper surveys the recent attempts at leveraging machine learning to solve constrained optimization problems. It focuses on surveying the work on integrating combinatorial solvers …
Recent work has shown how to embed differentiable optimization problems (that is, problems whose solutions can be backpropagated through) as layers within deep learning …
Large optimization problems with hard constraints arise in many settings, yet classical solvers are often prohibitively slow, motivating the use of deep networks as cheap" …
Integrating logical reasoning within deep learning architectures has been a major goal of modern AI systems. In this paper, we propose a new direction toward this goal by …
Recently there has been a surge of interest in operations research (OR) and the machine learning (ML) community in combining prediction algorithms and optimization techniques to …

In recent years, machine learning has proven to be a powerful tool for deriving insights from data. In this review, we describe ways in which machine learning has been leveraged to …
Combinatorial optimization assumes that all parameters of the optimization problem, eg the weights in the objective function, are fixed. Often, these weights are mere estimates and …
We consider the use of decision trees for decision-making problems under the predict-then- optimize framework. That is, we would like to first use a decision tree to predict unknown …
Abstract Machine learning components commonly appear in larger decision-making pipelines; however, the model training process typically focuses only on a loss that …
