Coverage Path Planning Techniques for Inspection of Disjoint Regions with Precedence Provision

Zeba Khanam, Sangeet Saha, Shoaib Ehsan, Rustam Stolkin, Klaus McDonald-Maier
2020 IEEE Access  
To meet the challenges, the problem is divided into two phases: inter-region and intra-region path planning.  ...  This has created a global demand to equip agents with the ability to autonomously inspect such environments by computing a coverage path effectively and efficiently.  ...  The multiple targets visiting problem was then formulated as Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) [10] .  ...

Economics at the millennium

Robert S. Goldfarb, Thomas C. Leonard
2002 Society (New Brunswick)  
One example involves methods for determining good choices where the best-possible (that is, "optimal") choice is not computable, as in traveling-salesman-type problems.  ...  For concreteness, consider a traveling salesman who must map out a route which includes visits to N cities. The optimal solution involves minimizing travel time.  ...  If both play gold, each gets a payoff of one; if both play silver, each gets a payoff of one. If they fail to coordinate, each gets zero.  ...
