Continuous reformulations and heuristics for the Euclidean travelling salesperson problem

Tuomo Valkonen, Tommi Kärkkäinen (2008)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We consider continuous reformulations of the Euclidean travelling salesperson problem (TSP), based on certain clustering problem formulations. These reformulations allow us to apply a generalisation with perturbations of the Weiszfeld algorithm in an attempt to find local approximate solutions to the Euclidean TSP.

A PVT-Type Algorithm for Minimizing a Nonsmooth Convex Function

Pang, Li-Ping, Xia, Zun-Quan (2003)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 90C25, 68W10, 49M37. A general framework of the (parallel variable transformation) PVT-type algorithm, called the PVT-MYR algorithm, for minimizing a non-smooth convex function is proposed, via the Moreau-Yosida regularization. As a particular scheme of this framework an ε-scheme is also presented. The global convergence of this algorithm is given under the assumptions of strong convexity of the objective function and an ε-descent...

Variations on the Gram-Schmidt and the Huang algorithms for linear systems: A numerical study

Emilio Spedicato, Maria Teresa Vespucci (1993)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper we compare the numerical performance on a set of ill conditioned problems of several algorithms for linear systems based upon the explicit QR factorization and the implicit LQ factorization associated with the Huang and the modified Huang algorithms in the ABS class. The results indicate that the modified Huang algorithm is generally more accurate than the Huang algorithm and competitive with commercial codes based upon the QR factorization with Householder of Givens reflections....

Interpretation and optimization of the k -means algorithm

Kristian Sabo, Rudolf Scitovski (2014)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The paper gives a new interpretation and a possible optimization of the well-known k -means algorithm for searching for a locally optimal partition of the set 𝒜 = { a i ∈ ℝ n : i = 1 , ⋯ , m } which consists of k disjoint nonempty subsets π 1 , ⋯ , π k , 1 ≤ k ≤ m . For this purpose, a new divided k -means algorithm was constructed as a limit case of the known smoothed k -means algorithm. It is shown that the algorithm constructed in this way coincides with the k -means algorithm if during the iterative procedure no data points appear in the...
