  • 将深度学习与运筹学结合,以增强动态不确定环境中的决策适应性
  • 展示深度学习在供应链、医疗等领域的实际应用效果
  • 适合关注智能决策系统构建的研究者与工程师

人工智能正从单纯预测转向支持复杂、动态且充满不确定性的环境中的决策。这一转变自然地与运筹学和管理科学(OR/MS)形成交叉,后者长期为序列决策提供概念与方法基础。同时,深度学习的发展——包括前馈神经网络、LSTM、Transformer及深度强化学习——拓展了数据驱动建模的边界,为大规模决策系统带来新可能。本教程从运筹学中心视角出发,探讨深度学习在不确定性下的序列决策应用。核心观点是:深度学习并非替代优化,而是其有力补充——前者提供可扩展的近似与自适应能力,后者则保障约束、应对措施与不确定性的结构严谨性。教程回顾关键决策基础,连接现代神经架构,并讨论学习与优化融合的前沿方法。还展示了在供应链、医疗与疫情响应、农业、能源及自主运行等领域的新兴影响。更广泛而言,这些进展标志着从预测型AI向决策型AI的演进,强调了运筹学在塑造下一代集成学习-优化系统中的关键作用。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Artificial intelligence (AI) is moving increasingly beyond prediction to support decisions in complex, uncertain, and dynamic environments. This shift creates a natural intersection with operations research and management sciences (OR/MS), which have long offered conceptual and methodological foundations for sequential decision-making under uncertainty. At the same time, recent advances in deep learning, including feedforward neural networks, LSTMs, transformers, and deep reinforcement learning, have expanded the scope of data-driven modeling and opened new possibilities for large-scale decision systems. This tutorial presents an OR/MS-centered perspective on deep learning for sequential decision-making under uncertainty. Its central premise is that deep learning is valuable not as a replacement for optimization, but as a complement to it. Deep learning brings adaptability and scalable approximation, whereas OR/MS provides the structural rigor needed to represent constraints, recourse, and uncertainty. The tutorial reviews key decision-making foundations, connects them to the major neural architectures in modern AI, and discusses leading approaches to integrating learning and optimization. It also highlights emerging impact in domains such as supply chains, healthcare and epidemic response, agriculture, energy, and autonomous operations. More broadly, it frames these developments as part of a wider transition from predictive AI toward decision-capable AI and highlights the role of OR/MS in shaping the next generation of integrated learning--optimization systems.
