Large traveling salesman problem (TSP) instances require a solver to allocate limited computation while preserving the validity of its outputs. Existing neural--operations-research (OR) hybrids predict guidance without requiring learned transitions to satisfy constraints discovered during search.
arXiv:2607. 18632v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Automated Algorithm Selection (AS) aims to improve problem-solving performance by selecting, for each problem instance, the most suitable algorithm from a predefined portfolio.
arXiv:2606. 22776v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Non-autoregressive neural solvers amortize computation across traveling salesman problem (TSP) instances, but models trained on random Euclidean instances can degrade when the number or spatial distribution of nodes changes.
arXiv:2607. 12127v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning-based methods for the traveling salesman problem (TSP) are often evaluated through the tours produced after decoding or search, but the learned object itself frequently lives in a surrogate space such as heatmaps, assignments, construction policies, or search-guidance scores.
Automated Algorithm Selection (AS) aims to improve problem-solving performance by selecting, for each problem instance, the most suitable algorithm from a predefined portfolio. This is particularly relevant to the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), where solver performance is strongly instance-dependent.
arXiv:2607. 13373v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Column generation (CG) is central to many large-scale optimization algorithms, including branch-price-and-cut methods for vehicle routing problems, but unstable dual solutions can substantially slow its convergence.
