New RELAGRAM model uses latent recursion for vehicle routing problems

Researchers have developed RELAGRAM, a novel Recursive Latent Graph Model designed for the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP). This approach utilizes a compact transformer to repeatedly update latent representations of graph tokens, enabling it to construct feasible solutions. RELAGRAM demonstrates promising results on CVRP instances, achieving competitive gaps compared to existing solvers and showing generalization capabilities to larger problem sizes. AI

IMPACT This research explores the application of latent recursion in neural networks for combinatorial optimization problems like vehicle routing.

    RELAGRAM: Recursive Latent Graph Model for the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem

    Latent recursion repeatedly processes internal representations through the same neural network. Recent work has shown this approach to be effective on structured reasoning tasks such as Sudoku and maze solving. However, whether latent recursion can support neural routing remains …
