ORSSA launches a Special Interest Group for Combinatorial Optimisation

Updated: Apr 5

by Ruan Luies


The recent OptiSIG 2023 gathering, although small in size, was an event buzzing with enthusiasm and a shared passion for combinatorial optimization. The diverse insights and perspectives brought forth led to rich and insightful discussions. To everyone who participated and contributed to making this event successful, a sincere thank you.


A particularly compelling topic we delved into was the potential use of advanced AI technology, such as ChatGPT, in the field of combinatorial optimisation. It's thrilling to envisage how this technology could help us tackle and simplify intricate problems within our discipline, truly underlining the transformative power of AI in shaping the future. Looking ahead, I am filled with anticipation for our next gathering. With every discussion, our understanding and the boundaries of combinatorial optimization continue to expand. As we continue this journey, we're excited by the prospect of what we can achieve together in this stimulating field. Stay tuned for more updates and in the meantime, let's continue to explore the fascinating world of combinatorial optimization!
