A Contribution to the “Travelling-Salesman” Problem

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1955
Summary This paper is concerned with finding the shortest closed path joining n points where the distances between all pairs of points are given. For a set of points in a metric space we establish that the shortest path will consist of a single loop circuit that will never cross itself.

Ordered Median Traveling Salesman Problem

open access: yesNetworks, Volume 88, Issue 1, Page 59-84, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a novel combinatorial optimization problem with ordering constraints, termed the Ordered Median Traveling Salesman Problem (OMTSP). The OMTSP integrates key elements from both the classic Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) and the Ordered Median Location Problem.

Optimizing Movement Sequences for Step-and-Scan Lithography Equipment

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2013
The purpose of this work is to improve the throughput of step-and-scan lithography equipment to shorten the production time of a wafer. For this purpose, we propose a method for solving the MSOP (Movement Sequence Optimization Problem), which is the ...

Navigating Knowledge: Effects of State Curiosity on Children's Word Learning and Information Seeking

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Early learning takes place within complex, multimodal environments where curiosity plays a critical role in guiding exploratory behaviors and supporting cognitive development. While trait curiosity shapes children's early learning experiences, state curiosity is context‐dependent fostering early learning, in‐part, through information seeking ...

On One Implementation of a Natural Approach to Solving the Traveling Salesman Problem

open access: yesКібернетика та комп'ютерні технології
Introduction. The relevance of the traveling salesman problem is associated with the need to develop computational schemes for use in situations that require the analysis of information of a sufficiently large volume.

Trajectory Stability in the Traveling Salesman Problem

open access: yesComplexity, 2018
Two generalizations of the traveling salesman problem in which sites change their position in time are presented. The way the rank of different trajectory lengths changes in time is studied using the rank diversity.

The Railway Traveling Salesman Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We consider theRailwayTraveling SalesmanProblem(RTSP) in which a salesman using the railway network wishes to visit a certain number of cities to carry out his/her business, starting and ending at the same city, and having as goal to minimize the overall time of the journey. RTSP is an NP-hard problem.

New Heuristic Algorithms for Solving Single-Vehicle and Multi-Vehicle Generalized Traveling Salesman Problems (GTSP) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Optimization in Industrial Engineering, 2010
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.

On Labeled Traveling Salesman Problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We consider labeled Traveling Salesman Problems, defined upon a complete graph of n vertices with colored edges. The objective is to find a tour of maximum (or minimum) number of colors. We derive results regarding hardness of approximation, and analyze approximation algorithms for both versions of the problem.

THE DUBINS TRAVELING SALESMAN PROBLEM WITH CONSTRAINED COLLECTING MANEUVERS

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2016
In this paper, we introduce a variant of the Dubins traveling salesman problem (DTSP) that is called the Dubins traveling salesman problem with constrained collecting maneuvers (DTSP-CM).
