Solving the Multiple Traveling Salesman Problem by a Novel Meta-heuristic Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Optimization in Industrial Engineering, 2014
The multiple traveling salesman problem (MTSP) is a generalization of the famous traveling salesman problem (TSP), where more than one salesman is used in the solution.

A Multi-Phase Method for Euclidean Traveling Salesman Problems

open access: yesAxioms, 2022
The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) aims to find the shortest tour for a salesman who starts and ends in the same city and visits the remaining n−1 cities exactly once.

A matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose a matheuristic for the traveling salesman problem with positional consistency constraints, where we seek to generate a set of routes with minimum total cost, in which the nodes visited in more than one route (consistent nodes) must occupy the same relative position in all routes.

Optimized annealing of traveling salesman problem from the nth-nearest-neighbor distribution

open access: yes, 2006
We report a new statistical general property in traveling salesman problem, that the $n$th-nearest-neighbor distribution of optimal tours verifies with very high accuracy an exponential decay as a function of the order of neighbor $n$.

A formulation and a metaheuristic approach for the clustered vehicle routing problem with d‐relaxed priority rule

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper investigates an extension of the vehicle routing problem in which, in addition to minimizing the distance traveled, the sequencing of customer visits is subject to precedence constraints that impose visiting priorities among customers.

Parallel DNA Algorithms of Generalized Traveling Salesman Problem-Based Bioinspired Computing Model

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems, 2020
Generalized traveling salesman problem (GTSP) is a classical combinatorial optimization problem, in which the optimization goal is the minimum route combination. Since the GTSP is a more complex problem than the traveling salesman problem (TSP), the GTSP

Evaluation of drone system for thinning operations–a case study in Sweden

open access: yesInternational Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Thinning operations in forestry typically involve a two‐machine system (TMS) with a harvester and a forwarder. Its productivity in different forest conditions is well documented. To date, drones have been used for data collection and surveillance but not as an alternative to a TMS.

Improved Cross Entropy Algorithm for the Optimum of Charge Planning Problem

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
To solve the charge planning problem involving charges and the orders in each charge, a traveling salesman problem based charge planning model and the improved cross entropy algorithm are proposed. Firstly, the charge planning problem with unknown charge

The Pyramidal Method for Traveling Salesman Problem

open access: yesCommunications, 2000
A shortest pyramidal tour (SPT) is a well-solved case of TSP when a distance matrix is the Monge matrix. We study heuristic repeating method for SPT with the distance matrix without restriction.
