arXiv:2606.05956v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bidirectional heuristic search can potentially reduce search effort for problems amenable to backward search. Therein, it is well-known that front-to-front heuristics can reduce the number of node expansions, but their overhead is so high that overall runtime almost always increases. We propose BiXDFBnB, a bidirectional depth-first branch-and-bound algorithm that adapts the Single-Frontier Bidirectional Search (SFBDS) framework - originally developed for shortest-path (MIN) problems - to the Generalized Longest Simple Path (GLSP) setting.
