LLM framework achieves near-optimal scheduling for open-pit mines

Researchers have developed a novel framework called Sim2Schedule that utilizes Large Language Models (LLMs) for autonomous open-pit mine scheduling. This system integrates an LLM with a custom simulator to generate extraction and processing schedules, operating without cloud-based inference or retraining. The framework achieves 94% to 99% of the optimal Net Present Value (NPV) compared to traditional Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) methods, while demonstrating linear scalability in computation time. This approach offers a practical and adaptable alternative for complex industrial scheduling problems. AI

    Sim2Schedule: A Simulator-Guided LLM Framework for Autonomous Open-Pit Mine Scheduling

    arXiv:2606.10286v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Open-pit mine scheduling is a critical process for maximizing economic return under complex geotechnical and operational constraints. While Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) provides mathematically optimal baselines, its expon…
