Automated generative process synthesis via transformer‐based dual‐loop simulation and optimization

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents a novel framework for automated generative process synthesis, addressing the complexity of simultaneously optimizing discrete topologies and continuous operating variables. To overcome conventional superstructure limitations, we propose a dual‐loop architecture integrating generative transformers with rigorous process ...

Sequence‐Encoded Frustration Directs the Formation of Abridged G‐Quadruplex Architectures

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Programmable frustration reshapes the free‐energy surface (FES) of guanine‐quadruplex (G4) folding, stabilizing an abridged G4 and a G‐triplex intermediate. ABSTRACT Frustration—competing interactions that cannot be simultaneously optimized—shapes energy landscapes in proteins and soft matter, but has rarely been exploited as a programmable design ...

Overview on Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming Problems [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2009
Many optimization problems involve integer and continuous variables that can be modeled as mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems. This has led to a wide range of applications, in particular in some engineering areas. Here, we provide a brief overview on MINLP, and present a simple idea for a future nonconvex MINLP solution technique.
