Researchers propose a Rescaling Graph Convolutional Network (RsGCN) to enhance generalization of neural TSP solvers for scalable problems and reduce training costs.
RsGCN incorporates a Rescaling Mechanism to focus on scale-dependent features related to nodes and edges, stabilizing graph message aggregation and maintaining numerical consistency.
Efficient training with a mixed-scale dataset and bidirectional loss is utilized in RsGCN, along with a post-search algorithm called Re2Opt for further optimization.
Experiments show that RsGCN achieves remarkable generalization and low training cost, outperforming neural competitors with fewer learnable parameters and training epochs.
