### Summer Research Intern @ Luther College
Jan 2020 – Jan 2020 | Decorah, Iowa, United States
Attempt to tackle the Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) by combining the Divide and Conquer approach and Concorde solver to achieve lower processing time with some sacrifice in accuracy. 

The project tested fixed radii as a means of identifying neighborhoods of points. By searching for the best tour to travel all the neighborhoods and then solve for the shortest tour to traverse each neighborhood, processing time decreases. In terms of accuracy, the method was able to provide tours of ~13% longer than the predetermined optimal route - comparative to the 2-opt edge exchange method. The 2-opt's processing time, however, takes a significantly longer time than the neighborhood tour method. 

Even though this heuristic method pales in comparison to the state-of-the-art Lin-Kernighan heuristic, I hope this paper opens another approach to the legendary problem TSP. 

In the future, applying a dynamic neighborhood recognition system (not fixed radii for each neighborhood) with a Machine Learning model is a fantastic way of increasing the competitiveness of this method.
