Auditing Reveals Bias in Neural Combinatorial Optimization Benchmarks
This paper audits test-time budget allocation in Neural Combinatorial Optimization (NCO) solvers, revealing that reported gains from non-uniform sampling often stem from "sampling luck" rather than true allocation benefits on in-distribution data. It proposes a correction procedure and demonstrates real gains under distribution shift, emphasizing the need for rigorous evaluation.
