Graph-Grounded Optimization: Rao-Family Metaheuristics, Classical OR, and SLM-Driven Formulation over Knowledge Graphs
Researchers have introduced a new optimization paradigm called graph-grounded optimization, which leverages property knowledge graphs as the primary input modality. This approach contrasts with existing systems that rely on natural language or static tables. The framework was implemented using the open-source samyama-graph database and evaluated across seven real-world problems, including drug repurposing and supply chain rerouting. AI
