New Results on the Old k-Opt Algorithm for the TSP
نویسندگان
چکیده
Local search with k change neighborhoods is perhaps the oldest and most widely used heuristic method for the traveling salesman problem yet almost no theoretical performance guarantees for it were previously known This paper develops several results some worst case and some probabilistic on the performance of and k opt local search for the TSP with respect to both the quality of the solution and the speed with which it is obtained

A Hybrid Modified Meta-heuristic Algorithm for Solving the Traveling Salesman Problem
The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is one of the most important combinational optimization problems that have nowadays received much attention because of its practical applications in industrial and service problems. In this paper, a hybrid two-phase meta-heuristic algorithm called MACSGA used for solving the TSP is presented. At the first stage, the TSP is solved by the modified ant colony s...
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 کاملFine-Grained Complexity Analysis of Two Classic TSP Variants
We analyze two classic variants of the Traveling Salesman Problem using the toolkit of fine-grained complexity. Our first set of results is motivated by the Bitonic tsp problem: given a set of n points in the plane, compute a shortest tour consisting of two monotone chains. It is a classic dynamic-programming exercise to solve this problem in O(n2) time. While the nearquadratic dependency of si...
متن کاملAn Effective Implementation of K-opt Moves for the Lin-Kernighan TSP Heuristic
Local search with k-change neighborhoods, k-opt, is the most widely used heuristic method for the traveling salesman problem (TSP). This report presents an effective implementation of k-opt for the LinKernighan TSP heuristic. The effectiveness of the implementation is demonstrated with extensive experiments on instances ranging from 10,000 to 10,000,000 cities.
متن کاملSolving Traveling Salesman Problem based on Biogeography-based Optimization and Edge Assembly Cross-over
Biogeography-Based Optimization (BBO) algorithm has recently been of great interest to researchers for simplicity of implementation, efficiency, and the low number of parameters. The BBO Algorithm in optimization problems is one of the new algorithms which have been developed based on the biogeography concept. This algorithm uses the idea of animal migration to find suitable habitats for solvin...
