Exact Approaches for the Travelling Thief Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many evolutionary and constructive heuristic approaches have been introduced in order to solve the Traveling Thief Problem (TTP). However, the accuracy of such approaches is unknown due to their inability to find global optima. In this paper, we propose three exact algorithms and a hybrid approach to the TTP. We compare these with state-of-theart approaches to gather a comprehensive overview on the accuracy of heuristic methods for solving small TTP instances.

Evolutionary Computation plus Dynamic Programming for the Bi-Objective Travelling Thief Problem
This research proposes a novel indicator-based hybrid evolutionary approach that combines approximate and exact algorithms. We apply it to a new bi-criteria formulation of the travelling thief problem, which is known to the Evolutionary Computation community as a benchmark multi-component optimisation problem that interconnects two classical NP-hard problems: the travelling salesman problem and...
متن کاملA CONSTRAINED SOLID TSP IN FUZZY ENVIRONMENT: TWO HEURISTIC APPROACHES
A solid travelling salesman problem (STSP) is a travelling salesman problem (TSP) where the salesman visits all the cities only once in his tour using dierent conveyances to travel from one city to another. Costs and environmental eect factors for travelling between the cities using dierent conveyances are dierent. Goal of the problem is to nd a complete tour with minimum cost that damages the ...
متن کاملA Fully Polynomial Time Approximation Scheme for Packing While Traveling
Understanding the interactions between different combinatorial optimisation problems in real-world applications is a challenging task. Recently, the traveling thief problem (TTP), as a combination of the classical traveling salesperson problem and the knapsack problem, has been introduced to study these interactions in a systematic way. We investigate the underlying non-linear packing while tra...
متن کاملOn investigation of interdependence between sub-problems of the Travelling Thief Problem
In this paper, the interdependence between subproblems in a complex overall problem is investigated using a benchmark problem called Travelling Thief Problem (TTP), which is a combination of Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) and Knapsack Problem (KP). First, the analysis on the mathematical formulation shows that it is impossible to decompose the problem into independent sub-problems due to the...
متن کاملExact travelling wave solutions for some complex nonlinear partial differential equations
This paper reflects the implementation of a reliable technique which is called $left(frac{G'}{G}right)$-expansion ethod for constructing exact travelling wave solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. The proposed algorithm has been successfully tested on two two selected equations, the balance numbers of which are not positive integers namely Kundu-Eckhaus equation and Derivat...
