Social evolutionary programming algorithm for TSP
Xiuxi Wei · Computer Engineering and Applications Journal · 2009
In this paper,a method-social evolutionary programming which combines social evolutionary programming and ant colony optimization is given to solve TSP.Firstly ant colony optimization is used as cognitive agents' cognitive learning,and then the global optimum is obtained by paradigm's learning and shift.Finally two examples are compared with the optimum that has been known,the result indicates that social evolutionary programming with fewer agents and less iterative times can also converge the optimum.
