This abstract introduces OptiMUS, a Large Language Model-based agent that formulates and solves mixed integer linear programming problems from natural language descriptions. The agent can develop mathematical models, write and debug solver code, evaluate generated solutions, and improve its model and code based on these evaluations. OptiMUS utilizes a modular structure to process problems, allowing it to handle long descriptions and complex data without lengthy prompts. Experimental results demonstrate that OptiMUS outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods by more than 20% on easy datasets and by more than 30% on hard datasets, including the newly released NLP4LP dataset featuring complex problems.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
OptiMUS is a new way to solve math problems. Right now, people usually do this by hand or with computers that aren’t very good at it. OptiMUS uses artificial intelligence to help solve these problems. It can take words and turn them into math equations, write code to solve the problem, check the answer, and even make it better if needed. This makes it really good at solving tricky problems.
