Hybrid Models for Learning to Branch

Prateek Gupta, Maxime Gasse, Elias B. Khalil, M. Pawan Kumar, Andrea Lodi, Yoshua Bengio

This is the official implementation of our NeurIPS 2020 paper

Installation

This work is built upon learn2branch, which proposes Graph Neural Network for learning to branch. We use it as a git submodule. Follow installation instructions of learn2branch to install SCIP and PySCIPOpt.

UPDATE As pointed out in PR#2, a function needs to be added in the class Column of PySCIPOpt. Please add the following function there before installation of PySCIPOpt-

def getIndex(self):
  return SCIPcolGetIndex(self.scip_col)

Following python dependencies were used to run the code in this repository

torch==1.4.0.dev20191031
scipy==1.5.2
numpy==1.18.1
networkx==2.4
Cython==0.29.13
PySCIPOpt==2.1.5
scikit-learn==0.20.2

To setup this repo, follow

git clone https://github.com/pg2455/Hybrid-learn2branch.git
cd Hybrid-learn2branch
git submodule update --init

How to run it?

In the instructions below we assumed that a bash variable PROBLEM exists. For example,

PROBLEM=setcover

Below instructions assume access to data/ folder in the repo. Please look at the argument flags in each of the script to use another folder.
