A Complete Algorithm for a Moving Target Traveling Salesman Problem with Obstacles

Anoop Bhat, Geordan Gutow, Bhaskar Vundurthy +3

The moving target traveling salesman problem with obstacles (MT-TSP-O) is a generalization of the traveling salesman problem (TSP) where, as its name suggests, the targets are movi…

Parallel, Asymptotically Optimal Algorithms for Moving Target Traveling Salesman Problems

Anoop Bhat, Geordan Gutow, Bhaskar Vundurthy +3

The Moving Target Traveling Salesman Problem (MT-TSP) seeks a trajectory that intercepts several moving targets, within a particular time window for each target. When generic nonli…
