    1.11 +\brief Algorithms for the symmetric traveling salesman problem
    1.12 +
    1.13 +This group contains basic heuristic algorithms for the the symmetric
    1.14 +\e traveling \e salesman \e problem (TSP).
    1.15 +Given an \ref FullGraph "undirected full graph" with a cost map on its edges,
    1.16 +the problem is to find a shortest possible tour that visits each node exactly
    1.17 +once (i.e. the minimum cost Hamiltonian cycle).
    1.18 +
    1.19 +These TSP algorithms should be used with a
    1.20 +metric cost function. Otherwise, they could yield worse results.
    1.21 +
    1.22 +LEMON provides five well-known heuristics for solving symmetric TSP:
    1.23 + - \ref NearestNeighborTsp Neareast neighbor algorithm
    1.24 + - \ref GreedyTsp Greedy algorithm
    1.25 + - \ref InsertionTsp Insertion heuristic (with four selection methods)
    1.26 + - \ref ChristofidesTsp Christofides algorithm
    1.27 + - \ref Opt2Tsp 2-opt algorithm
