Deep Learning and Operations Research Converge for Decision-Making

A new tutorial paper explores the intersection of deep learning and operations research (OR/MS) for sequential decision-making under uncertainty. It posits that deep learning complements, rather than replaces, traditional OR/MS methods by offering adaptability and scalable approximation. The paper organizes the field around themes like predict-then-optimize, decision-aware learning, and deep reinforcement learning, with applications spanning supply chains, healthcare, and energy. AI

IMPACT This paper frames AI developments as a shift toward decision-capable AI, highlighting the integration of learning and optimization systems.
