[AAAI 2024] GLOP: Learning Global Partition and Local Construction for Solving Large-scale Routing Problems in Real-time

Welcome! This repository contains the code implementation of paper GLOP: Learning Global Partition and Local Construction for Solving Large-scale Routing Problems in Real-time. GLOP is a unified hierarchical framework that efficiently scales toward large-scale routing problems. It partitions large routing problems into Travelling Salesman Problems (TSPs) and TSPs into Shortest Hamiltonian Path Problems (SHPPs). We hybridize non-autoregressive neural heuristics for coarse-grained problem partitions and autoregressive neural heuristics for fine-grained route constructions.

News

🚀 Oct 2024: We released a Python library for performing fast random insertion on TSP and SHPP instances

🐛 Jul 2024: Thanks to Wenzheng Pan, we detected a bug in the insertion for ATSP and fixed it. After the bug fix, GLOP achieves better performance on ATSP; see the below table for the updated results. Results on other problems are unaffected.

Version ATSP150 ATSP250 ATSP1000
Before 1.89 (6.4s) 2.10 (9.6s) 2.79 (39s)
After 1.89 (8.2s) 2.04 (9.3s) 2.33 (15s)

Highlights

  • Hybridizing non-autoregressive solvers for problem partitions and autoregressive solvers for solution constructions.
  • Competitive performance across large-scale TSP, ATSP, CVRP, and PCTSP.
  • State-of-the-art scalability and efficiency: reasonable solutions for TSP100K, etc.

Evaluation

To evaluate our method on your own datasets, add --path PATH_OF_YOUR_DATASET.

For TSP

# For TSP500:
python main.py --problem_size 500 --revision_iters 20 25 5 --revision_lens 100 50 20 --width 10 --eval_batch_size 64 --val_size 128 --decode_strategy greedy

# For TSP1000:
python main.py --problem_size 1000 --revision_iters 20 25 5 --revision_lens 100 50 20 --width 10 --eval_batch_size 32 --val_size 128 --decode_strategy greedy

# For TSP10k:
python main.py --problem_size 10000 --revision_iters 50 25 5 --revision_lens 100 50 20 --width 1 --eval_batch_size 16 --val_size 16 --decode_strategy greedy

# For TSP100k:
python main.py --problem_size 100000 --revision_iters 50 25 5 --revision_lens 100 50 20 --width 1 --eval_batch_size 1 --val_size 1 --decode_strategy greedy

# To conduct cross-distribution evaluation, e.g.:
python main.py --problem_size 100 --revision_lens 100 50 20 10 --revision_iters 20 10 10 5 --width 140 --eval_batch_size 100 --val_size 10000 --decode_strategy sampling --path data/tsp/tsp_uniform100_10000.pkl --no_aug --no_prune

# To reproduce the results of 49 TSPLib instances:
python eval_tsplib.py --eval_batch_size 1 --val_size 49 --path data/tsp/tsplib49.pkl --width 128 --decode_strategy greedy --no_prune

To reduce the inference duration, try:

# set
--width 1
# add
--no_aug
# less revisions, e.g.,
--revision_iters 5 5 5
