Approximation Algorithms for P2P Orienteering and Stochastic Vehicle Routing Problem
We consider the P2P orienteering problem on general metrics and present a (2+ε) approximation algorithm. In the stochastic P2P orienteering problem we are given a metric and each node has a fixed reward and random size. The goal is to devise a strategy for visiting the nodes so as to maximize the expected value of the reward without violating the budget constraints. We present an approximation ...
متن کاملEfficient Approximation Algorithms for Point-set Diameter in Higher Dimensions
We study the problem of computing the diameter of a set of $n$ points in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space for a fixed dimension $d$, and propose a new $(1+varepsilon)$-approximation algorithm with $O(n+ 1/varepsilon^{d-1})$ time and $O(n)$ space, where $0 < varepsilonleqslant 1$. We also show that the proposed algorithm can be modified to a $(1+O(varepsilon))$-approximation algorithm with $O(n+...
متن کاملCompact, Provably-Good LPs for Orienteering and Regret-Bounded Vehicle Routing
We develop polynomial-size LP-relaxations for orienteering and the regret-bounded vehicle routing problem (RVRP) and devise suitable LP-rounding algorithms that lead to various new insights and approximation results for these problems. In orienteering, the goal is to find a maximum-reward r-rooted path, possibly ending at a specified node, of length at most some given budget B. In RVRP, the goa...
متن کاملApproximation algorithms for stochastic orienteering
In the Stochastic Orienteering problem, we are given a metric, where each node also has a job located there with some deterministic reward and a random size. (Think of the jobs as being chores one needs to run, and the sizes as the amount of time it takes to do the chore.) The goal is to adaptively decide which nodes to visit to maximize total expected reward, subject to the constraint that the...
متن کاملPoly-logarithmic Approximation Algorithms for Directed Vehicle Routing Problems
This paper studies vehicle routing problems on asymmetric metrics. Our starting point is the directed k-TSP problem: given an asymmetric metric (V, d), a root r ∈ V and a target k ≤ |V |, compute the minimum length tour that contains r and at least k other vertices. We present a polynomial time O(log n · log k)-approximation algorithm for this problem. We use this algorithm for directed k-TSP t...
