HeurEvo: Agentic Evolution of Hybrid Solver-Augmented Heuristics for Time-Critical Mathematical Optimization

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.36303v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in agentic heuristic design use AI agents and execution feedback to automate algorithm discovery for challenging optimization problems. In many practical settings, high-quality solutions must be obtained under strict runtime constraints, motivating hybrid approaches that combine problem-specific heuristics with powerful mathematical programming solvers. However, existing approaches typically improve heuristic components within predefined procedures or tune solver configurations in isolation. This limits holistic adaptation of where to allocate computation, how to leverage solvers, and how to refine the overall algorithmic structure. To address these limitations, we propose HeurEvo, an automated plan--code--component co-evolu
