Scheduling and Optimization Algorithms
TL;DR
The State Extraction Graph (SEG) is proposed, which provides a significantly more concise structural representation than Petri nets for modeling multi-wafer fabrication processes and a Graph Deep Reinforcement Learning (G-DRL) method for scheduling cluster tools.
A novel end-to-end, size-agnostic graph reinforcement learning framework for 1D-BPP that outperforms a state-of-the-art learned solver that relies on column generation and integer programming, while using no solver at all.
A deep recurrent Q-network (DRQN)-based framework for post-placement circuit optimization that jointly leverages all three operations to enable integrated optimization of timing and power and design a reward function that applies symmetric logarithmic compression to each metric at a fixed scale, allowing controllable t...

This work proposes HiGFRL, a Hierarchical Graph Fusion-Driven Reinforcement Learning framework, which designs a fusion-driven dual-network architecture to optimize RL decision-making and incorporates a topology-prior-guided hybrid reward mechanism that distills static topological priors into the learning process to acc...
An extended FJSP with multiple BPMs is formed and an end-to-end two-layer multi-agent deep reinforcement learning framework is proposed, supporting the framework as an effective scheduling approach for deterministic FJSP with BPMs and indicating cross-scale generalization across evaluated instances.
This work proposes PLAN (Parallel Liquid-inspired Approximation Network), a lightweight representation learning framework that reformulates continuous liquid-state dynamics into a discretized and parallelizable formulation and acts as a versatile, plug-and-play backbone that generalizes to complex FJSP variants.
