Status of National TSP Instances

We present below a summary of the solution status of the 25 National TSP instances. In the table, we list the length of the best reported solution for each of the instances, and also the best reported lower bounds, that is, values for which it has been verified that there is no tour for the instance of length less than the specified number. The "Gap" column gives the % difference between the best tour and the best bound.

Notes

1. All lower bounds were found by Concorde, our linear-programming based TSP solver.

2. LKH is Keld Helsgaun's powerful implementation of the Lin-Kernighan heuristic.
