[HTML][HTML] Exact algorithms and heuristics for the quadratic traveling salesman problem with an application in bioinformatics

A Fischer, F Fischer, G Jäger, J Keilwagen… - Discrete Applied …, 2014 - Elsevier
In this paper we introduce an extension of the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), which is
motivated by an important application in bioinformatics. In contrast to the TSP the costs do …

Relaxed tours and path ejections for the traveling salesman problem

C Rego - European Journal of operational research, 1998 - Elsevier
We describe an edge based ejection chain method to generate compound neighborhood
structures for the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP). These neighborhood structures …

The quadratic selective travelling salesman problem

T Thomadsen, TK Stidsen - 2003 - orbit.dtu.dk
A well-known extension of the Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) is the Selective TSP
(STSP): Each node has an associated profit and instead of visiting all nodes, the most …
