General concept and initial results promising Many other things to test, among which
results with more ML paradigms (Gabriele’s talk)
different solvers (Octeract?) & classes of problems (MINLP) different/wider sets of instances (MI[N]LPLib, . . . )
different performance metrics Most interesting ideas (to me):
different performance metricsduring learning specialised approaches for different CSSPs
extension to multilevel nested decomposition(SMS++) Most difficult challenges to overcome:
automaticallyfinding the right set of features (SMS++?) what if Feature Transformation (SVD) rather than FS?
designing asystem/community to share the enormous training cost
