Box-counting by Hölder’s traveling salesman

An Approach for Solving Traveling Salesman Problem

In this paper, we introduce a new approach for solving the traveling salesman problems (TSP) and provide a solution algorithm for a variant of this problem. The concept of the proposed method is based on the Hungarian algorithm, which has been used to solve an assignment problem for reaching an optimal solution. We introduced a new fittest criterion for crossing over such problems, and illu...

Solving Traveling Salesman Problem by Marker Method

In this paper we use marker method and propose a new mutation operator that selects the nearest neighbor among all near neighbors solving Traveling Salesman Problem.

The traveling salesman problem

2 Metric Traveling Salesman

The traveling salesman problem is a classical NP-hard problem, and also hard to approximate at all under the assumption P 6= NP. Definition 1. A vertex tour of a graph G is a path which visits all vertices and returns to its starting vertex. This is another name for a Hamiltonian cycle on G. Traveling salesman problems involve finding a tour of undirected graph G with edge weights d(·), which w...

Traveling Salesman Problem

In this paper we present a fast approach for solving large scale Traveling Salesman Problems (TSPs). The heuristic is based on Delaunay Triangulation and its runtime is therefore bounded by O(n log n). The algorithm starts by construction the convex hull and successively replaces one edge with two new edges of the triangulation, thus inserting a new city. The decision which edge to remove is ba...
