Heuristic estimates in shortest path algorithms
نویسنده
چکیده
Shortest path problems occupy an important position in Operations Research as well as in Artificial Intelligence. In this paper we study shortest path algorithms that exploit heuristic estimates. The well-known algorithms are put into one framework. Besides we present an interesting application of binary numbers in the shortest path theory.

Optimum Routing in the Urban Transportation Network by Integrating Genetic Meta-heuristic (GA) and Tabu Search (Ts) Algorithms
Urban transportation is one of the most important issues of urban life especially in big cities. Urban development, and subsequently the increase of routes and communications, make the role of transportation science more pronounced. The shortest path problem in a network is one of the most basic network analysis issues. In fact, finding answers to this question is necessity for higher level ana...
متن کاملStochastic Shortest Path Problems with Recourse 1
We consider shortest path problems defined on graphs with random arc costs. We assume that information on arc cost values is accumulated as the graph is being traversed. The objective is to devise a policy that leads from an origin to a destination node with minimal expected cost. We provide dynamic programming algorithms, estimates for their complexity, negative complexity results, and analysi...
متن کاملTwo optimal algorithms for finding bi-directional shortest path design problem in a block layout
In this paper, Shortest Path Design Problem (SPDP) in which the path is incident to all cells is considered. The bi-directional path is one of the known types of configuration of networks for Automated Guided Vehi-cles (AGV).To solve this problem, two algorithms are developed. For each algorithm an Integer Linear Pro-gramming (ILP) is determined. The objective functions of both algorithms are t...
متن کاملALGORITHMS FOR BIOBJECTIVE SHORTEST PATH PROBLEMS IN FUZZY NETWORKS
We consider biobjective shortest path problems in networks with fuzzy arc lengths. Considering the available studies for single objective shortest path problems in fuzzy networks, using a distance function for comparison of fuzzy numbers, we propose three approaches for solving the biobjective prob- lems. The rst and second approaches are extensions of the labeling method to solve the sing...
متن کاملFinding the Shortest Hamiltonian Path for Iranian Cities Using Hybrid Simulated Annealing and Ant Colony Optimization Algorithms
The traveling salesman problem is a well-known and important combinatorial optimization problem. The goal of this problem is to find the shortest Hamiltonian path that visits each city in a given list exactly once and then returns to the starting city. In this paper, for the first time, the shortest Hamiltonian path is achieved for 1071 Iranian cities. For solving this large-scale problem, tw...
