v4 v5 4 4 5 5 The Probabilistic Traveling Salesman Problem (PTSP) models situations in a delivery context where a set of customers have to be visited on a regular basis (e.g. daily), but all customers do not always require a visit (they have \probabilities" of being visited). In general, every day only a subset of customers requires a visit, and this subset is only known the same day as the required deliveries so re-optimizing vehicle routes from scratch every day is unfeasible. In this situation, the delivery man would follow a standard route skipping the customers that do not require a visit on that day. Therefore, the goal is to find a standard route of least expected length. 6 7 Based on the way the solutions are evaluated, we can distinguish between an analytical PTSP and a estimated PTSP. Currently, one the second one is fully functional in HeuristicLab. 6 8 7 9 '''Problem Parameters:''' … … 11 13 || Coordinates || The x- and y-Coordinates of the cities. || 12 14 || !DistanceMatrix || The matrix which contains the distances between the cities. || 13 || Evaluator || [#Evaluator TSPRoundedEuclideanPathEvaluator]:The operator which should be used to evaluate PTSP solutions. ||15 || Evaluator || The operator which should be used to evaluate PTSP solutions. || 14 16 || ProbablityMatrix || The matrix which contains the probabilities of the cities. || 15 17 || Realizations || The list which contains the realizations of the Monte Carlo sampling. ||
