Beyond the Heatmap: A Rigorous Evaluation of Component Impact in MCTS-Based TSP Solvers

ICLR 2026poster

The ``Heatmap + Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS)'' paradigm has recently emerged as a prominent framework for solving the Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP). While considerable effort has been devoted to enhancing heatmap sophistication through advanced learning models, this paper rigorously examines w…

H-TSP: Hierarchically Solving the Large-Scale Traveling Salesman Problem

AAAI 2023technical

We propose an end-to-end learning framework based on hierarchical reinforcement learning, called H-TSP, for addressing the large-scale Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). The proposed H-TSP constructs a solution of a TSP instance starting from the scratch relying on two components: the upper-level pol…

Pointerformer: Deep Reinforced Multi-Pointer Transformer for the Traveling Salesman Problem

AAAI 2023technical

Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), as a classic routing optimization problem originally arising in the domain of transportation and logistics, has become a critical task in broader domains, such as manufacturing and biology. Recently, Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) has been increasingly employed t…
