Fascinating approach! I'm interested to see how the machine learning models are able to perform with different problem scales.

From what I understand, they're training models based on the specific problem scales and then fine-tuning for real-time problem-solving. This has proven to be quite effective in their studies so far.

How do the training times compare to conventional optimization methods? I'm guessing that the model will need to be retrained once new problem sets emerge?

That's a critical question, indeed. According to their study, the training times are slightly higher initially compared to traditional optimization methods. However, the increased time spent in training leads to significant reductions in problem-solving times for large-scale issues. They also showed that transfer learning techniques could expedite retraining when new problem sets emerge.
