Researchers have developed a novel branch-and-bound search algorithm to tackle the Steiner Traveling Salesman Problem (Steiner-TSP) on Graphs of Convex Sets (GCS). This problem involves finding the most cost-effective closed path that visits required convex sets, with the option to include additional transit vertices or revisit locations. The proposed method utilizes additive lower-bound costs for committed path prefixes and a relaxation for the remaining path, enabling it to explore the infinite solution space. The algorithm has demonstrated its ability to find feasible solutions for inspection tasks, achieving certified optimality gaps within 30 seconds. AI
