The package uses Machine Learning (ML) to automatically identify patterns in previously solved instances of the problem, or in the solution process itself, and produces hints that can guide a traditional MIP solver towards the optimal solution faster. For particular classes of problems, this approach has been shown to provide significant performance benefits (see references below). -Table of contents +Table of Contents ----------------- * [Features](#features) * [Installation](#installation) @@ -21,6 +21,7 @@ Table of contents * [Current Limitations](#current-limitations) * [References](#references) * [Authors](#authors) + * [Acknowledgements](#acknowledgements) * [License](#license) Features @@ -218,19 +219,26 @@ Current Limitations * Only binary and continuous decision variables are currently supported. * Solver callbacks (lazy constraints, cutting planes) are not currently supported. -* Only `gurobi_persistent` is currently fully supported by all components.
