Exponential Relation

The Traveling Salesman Problem is a combinatorial optimization problem, the problem has been shown to belong to the NPC problem, the possible solution of Traveling Salesman Problem and the scale of the cities have the exponential relation, so the more bigger of the scale. In this paper, improve the search process of the genetic algorithm by introducing the idea is to compress the search space. The simulation results show that for solving the TSP, the algorithm can quickly obtain multiple high-quality solutions. It can reduce the blindness of random search and accelerate convergence of the algorithm.

Discrete Optimization Problems

Traveling salesman problem (TSP) is one of well-known discrete optimization problems. The genetic algorithm is improved with the mixed heuristics to resolve TSP. The first heuristics is the four vertices and three lines inequality, which is applied to the 4-vertex paths to generate the shorter Hamiltonian cycles (HC). The second local heuristics is executed to reverse the i-vertex paths with more than two vertices, which also generates the shorter HCs. It is necessary that the two heuristics coordinate with each other in the optimization process. The time complexity of the first and second heuristics are O(n) and O(n3), respectively. The two heuristics are merged into the original genetic algorithm. The computation results show that the improved genetic algorithm with the mixed heuristics can find better solutions than the original GA does under the same conditions.
