Annealing Partheno-Genetic Algorithm for VRP with Soft Time Windows

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to resolve the vehicle routing problem with soft time window, a kind of Partheno-genetic Algorithms combined with Simulated Annealing was proposed in the paper, inverse operator and 2-change operator were presented.Centre point was replaced by the dummy natural number, then it is easy to made use of the available methods using by TSP. A selection method with tournament of three copies can keep the diversity of population. The simulation results show that new algorithm can effectively resole VRPTW, and get better results than common GA, new algorithms searching efficiency and convergence probability are effectively enhanced.
