The Effect of a New Generation Based Sequential Selection Operator on the Performance of Genetic Algorithm
Marjan Kuchaki Rafsanjani · Indian Journal of Science and Technology · 2012
In this study a new sequential combinational selection operator (SCSO) is present. Two traditional selection operators (Tournament Selection and Roulette Wheel Selection) and a developed selection method were applied to traveling salesman problems using MATLAB. The tours obtained using developed selection method, were shorter than those were obtained with existing selection operators for large numbers of cities.
