A Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) is an NPhard combinatorial problem that is very important for many real-world applications. In this paper, it is shown, that proposed approach solves multi-objective TSP (mTSP) more effectively than other investigated methods, i.e. Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II (NSGA-II). The proposed methods use rank and crowding distance (well-known from NSGA-II), combining those mechanisms in a novel, unique way: competing and coevolving in the evolution process. The proposed modifications are investigated and verified by the benchmark mTSP instances, and results are compared to other methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
