Abstract
Abstract Mixed-Initiative-Systems (MIS) are hybrid decision-making systems in which human and machine collaborate in order to produce a solution. This paper described an MIS adapted to business optimization problems. These problems can usually be solved in less than an hour as they show a linear structure. However, this delay is unacceptable for iterative and interactive decision-making contexts where users need to provide their input. Therefore, we propose a system providing the decision-makers with a convex hull of optimal solutions that minimize/maximize the variables of interest. The users can interactively modify the value of a variable and the system is able to recompute a new optimal solution in a few milliseconds. Four real-time reoptimization methods are described and evaluated. We also propose an improvement to this basic scheme in order to allow a user to explore near-optimal solutions as well. Examples showing real case of how we have exploited this framework within interactive decision support software are given.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
