A classical algorithm is tested against D-Wave hybrid quantum annealers for special cases of the Traveling Salesman Problem where the weights of the edges in a graph form an arithmetic progression.

The traveling salesman problem is one of the basic problems that many theoretical computer scientists have been working on. Many scientists think that there is no algorithm for the traveling salesman ...

Computers are good at answering questions. What’s the shortest route from my house to Area 51? Is 8,675,309 a prime number? How many teaspoons in a tablespoon? For questions like these, they’ve got ...

Not long ago, a team of researchers from Stanford and McGill universities broke a 35-year record in computer science by an almost imperceptible margin — four hundredths of a trillionth of a trillionth ...

Imagine a traveling salesman with a list of cities he must travel to only once while covering the shortest possible distance, before returning to his starting location. This "traveling salesman ...

Abstract: In order to solve the NP hard problem of TSP problem, this paper proposes the C-N-GA (Christofides Algorithm& Nearby Measures & Genetic Algorithm) algorithm that combines the Christofides ...
