A new asymmetric pyramidally solvable class of the traveling salesman problem
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a new method of identifying a class of asymmetric matrices for which an optimal traveling salesman tour exists that is pyramidal. The new class generalizes two previously known classes of matrices and includes some new matrices as well. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

On the Traveling Salesman Problem with a Relaxed Monge Matrix
We show that the traveling salesman problem with a symmetric relaxed Monge matrix as distance matrix is pyramidally solvable and can thus be solved by dynamic programming. Furthermore, we present a polynomial time algorithm that decides whether there exists a renumbering of the cities such that the resulting distance matrix becomes a relaxed Monge matrix.

متن کاملNew Heuristic Algorithms for Solving Single-Vehicle and Multi-Vehicle Generalized Traveling Salesman Problems (GTSP)
Among numerous NP-hard problems, the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) has been one of the most explored, yet unknown one. Even a minor modification changes the problem’s status, calling for a different solution. The Generalized Traveling Salesman Problem (GTSP)expands the TSP to a much more complicated form, replacing single nodes with a group or cluster of nodes, where the objective is to fi...
متن کاملAn 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...
متن کاملA New Hybrid Parallel Simulated Annealing Algorithm for Travelling Salesman Problem with Multiple Transporters
In today’s competitive transportation systems, passengers search to find traveling agencies that are able to serve them efficiently considering both traveling time and transportation costs. In this paper, we present a new model for the traveling salesman problem with multiple transporters (TSPMT). In the proposed model, which is more applicable than the traditional versions, each city has diffe...
