A Combination of Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm Optimization for Vehicle Routing Problem with Time Windows

A combination of genetic algorithm and particle swarm optimization (PSO) for vehicle routing problems with time windows (VRPTW) is proposed in this paper. The improvements of the proposed algorithm include: using the particle real number encoding method to decode the route to alleviate the computati...
