Genetic Algorithms for the Travelling Salesman Problem: A Review of Representations and Operators

TLDR
This paper presents crossover and mutation operators, developed to tackle the Travelling Salesman Problem with Genetic Algorithms with different representations such as: binary representation, path representation, adjacency representation, ordinal representation and matrix representation.
Abstract
This paper is the result of a literature study carried out by the authors. It is a review of the different attempts made to solve the Travelling Salesman Problem with Genetic Algorithms. We present crossover and mutation operators, developed to tackle the Travelling Salesman Problem with Genetic Algorithms with different representations such as: binary representation, path representation, adjacency representation, ordinal representation and matrix representation. Likewise, we show the experimental results obtained with different standard examples using combination of crossover and mutation operators in relation with path representation.

Genetic Algorithm Performance with Different Selection Strategies in Solving TSP

TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison of GA performance in solving travelling salesman problem (TSP) using different parent selection strategy is presented. And the results reveal that tournament and proportional roulette wheel can be superior to the rank-based Roulette wheel selection for smaller problems only and become susceptible to premature convergence as problem size increases.
