DualOpt: A Dual Divide-and-Optimize Algorithm for the Large-scale Traveling Salesman Problem

AAAI 2025technical

This paper proposes a dual divide-and-optimize algorithm (DualOpt) for solving the large-scale traveling salesman problem (TSP). DualOpt combines two complementary strategies to improve both solution quality and computational efficiency. The first strategy is a grid-based divide-and-conquer procedur…

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…
