Harnessing Language Models as Optimization Modeling Agents
Large language models (LLMs) can translate natural-language optimization problems into solver programs, but reliably producing correct formulations and implementations remains challenging. Existing approaches improve optimization modeling through agentic workflows or task-specific post-training. This raises a practical question: can a lightweight harness using a single model role achieve competitive performance without additional training?...
