tsp-c 0.0.20

A wrapper for c++ to solve the Traveling Salesman Problem

Package description

A wrapper for c++ to solve the Traveling Salesman Problem

Installation

pip install tsp-c

Available methods

• Greedy
• Simulated Annealing (SA)
• Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)

Available functions

solve_greedy(distance_matrix)
solve_SA(distance_matrix)
set_param_SA(C0, Cmin, L0, alpha)
solve_PSO(distance_matrix)

Examples

To solve the problem with the Greedy method:

import tsp_c as tsp

distance_matrix = [
	[0.0, 290.7, 254.9, 172.9],
	[263.6, 0.0, 508.3, 185.0],
	[258.2, 497.1, 0.0, 405.6],
	[136.8, 190.7, 394.8, 0.0]
]

sol, distance = tsp.solve_greedy(distance_matrix)
print("\nSolution from Greedy:")
print(distance, " ", sol)

The solution will be (1, 3, 0, 2) with total distance 1073.8000000000002.

To solve the problem with the Simulated Annealing method, change the code to:

sol, distance = tsp.solve_SA(distance_matrix)

To set the parameters of the Simulated Annealing method, use:

tsp.set_param_SA(C0, Cmin, L0, alpha)

where

• C0 = Initial temperature (default = 20.0)
• Cmin = Final temperature (default = 0.1)
• L0 = Number of iterations in each temperature (default = 10000)
• alpha = cooling rate (default = 0.9)

For example:

tsp.set_param_SA(10.0, 0.01, 10000, 0.95)

Requirement

python >=3.6
