Query: Computing Diverse Shortest Paths Efficiently: A Theoretical and
  Experimental Study   Finding diverse solutions in combinatorial problems recently has received
considerable attention (Baste et al. 2020; Fomin et al. 2020; Hanaka et al.
2021). In this paper we study the following type of problems: given an integer
$k$, the problem asks for $k$ solutions such that the sum of pairwise
(weighted) Hamming distances between these solutions is maximized. Such
solutions are called diverse solutions. We present a polynomial-time algorithm
for finding diverse shortest $st$-paths in weighted directed graphs. Moreover,
we study the diverse version of other classical combinatorial problems such as
diverse weighted matroid bases, diverse weighted arborescences, and diverse
bipartite matchings. We show that these problems can be solved in polynomial
time as well. To evaluate the practical performance of our algorithm for
finding diverse shortest $st$-paths, we conduct a computational experiment with
synthetic and real-world instances.The experiment shows that our algorithm
successfully computes diverse solutions within reasonable computational time.
