ITO-based evolutionary algorithm to solve traveling salesman problem
Wenyong Dong, Kang Sheng, Yang Chuanhua, Yunfei Yi · Journal of Physics Conference Series · 2014
In this paper, a ITO algorithm inspired by ITO stochastic process is proposed for Traveling Salesmen Problems (TSP), so far, many meta-heuristic methods have been successfully applied to TSP, however, as a member of them, ITO needs further demonstration for TSP. So starting from designing the key operators, which include the move operator, wave operator, etc, the method based on ITO for TSP is presented, and moreover, the ITO algorithm performance under different parameter sets and the maintenance of population diversity information are also studied.
