摘要:

我们提出了一种针对带容量获利旅行商问题(CPTP)及其开放的s-t路径变体——容量受限基本最短路径问题的开放、可重现的分支定界(B&C)算法。该求解器在完全开放的混合整数规划栈(HiGHS;Huangfu和Hall,2018)上重新实现了Jepsen等人(2014)的公式和割集族,并添加了基于边界的预处理、域传播和降低成本的变量固定。我们没有声称有新方法;贡献有两方面。首先,一个开放、可重现的工件:据我们所知,这是在完全开放的栈上针对此类问题的第一个分支定界法,其公式、每个分离器和所有基准脚本都已发布,因此下面的结果可以重新运行,并且求解器可以作为基线被重用和扩展。其次,对这个常见的现代栈进行了组件研究,与动态规划/标记参考进行了基准测试,该研究分解了哪些组件有成效以及运行时间花在哪里。我们发现容量类割集基本上带来了全部好处(将它们添加到仅连通性的基线中,从76个实例中解决的实例数量从52个增加到64个,并且搜索树缩小了十多倍),而梳状和舍入广义大星割集、降低成本的固定和基于边界的传播没有带来可测量的收益。我们还报告了一个负面结果:最短路径不兼容(SPI)割集,即García(2009)节点优先级不等式的一个变体,在任何实例上都没有发现违反的不等式。求解器和所有实验都作为开放、可重现的软件发布(Spoorendonk,2026)。

英文摘要:

We present an open, reproducible branch-and-cut (B&C) algorithm for the capacitated profitable tour problem (CPTP) and its open s-t path variant, the capacity-constrained elementary shortest-path problem. The solver re-implements the formulation and cut families of Jepsen et al. (2014) on a fully open mixed-integer programming stack (HiGHS; Huangfu and Hall, 2018), and adds bound-based preprocessing, domain propagation, and reduced-cost variable fixing. We claim no new method; the contribution is twofold. First, an open, reproducible artifact: to our knowledge the first branch-and-cut for this problem class on a fully open stack, with the formulation, every separator, and all benchmark scripts released, so the results below can be rerun and the solver reused and extended as a baseline. Second, a component study on this common modern stack, benchmarked against a dynamic-programming/labelling reference, that decomposes which components pay off and where the running time goes. We find that the capacity-class cuts account for essentially the entire benefit (adding them to a connectivity-only baseline lifts the number of instances solved from 52 to 64 of 76 and shrinks the search tree more than tenfold), while comb and rounded generalized-large-multistar cuts, reduced-cost fixing, and bound-based propagation add nothing measurable. We also report a negative result: the shortest-path-incompatibility (SPI) cut, a variant of the node-precedence inequalities of García (2009), finds no violated inequality on any instance. The solver and all experiments are released as open, reproducible software (Spoorendonk, 2026).
