A Diversity-Controlling Adaptive Genetic Algorithm for the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows
14 years 25 days ago
This paper presents an adaptive genetic algorithm (GA) to solve the Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows (VRPTW) to near optimal solutions. The algorithm employs a unique dec...
