A new node-shift encoding representation for the travelling salesman problem

Menouar Boulif, Aghiles Gharbi

This paper presents a new genetic algorithm encoding representation to solve the travelling salesman problem. To assess the performance of the proposed chromosome structure, we compare it with state-of-the-art encoding representations. For that purpose, we use 14 benchmarks of different sizes taken from TSPLIB. Finally, after conducting the experimental study, we report the obtained results and draw our conclusion.
