摘要
A multi-objective genetic algorithm based on Pareto approach was proposed for capacitated vehicle routing problems (CVRPs). In this algorithm, a new Pareto tournament selection operator based on arena's principle is used to avoid the difficulty of solving non-convex problems; meanwhile, the nearest-neighbor algorithm and sweep algorithm are adopted to initialize population, and heuristic crossover operator is introduced to accelerate the convergence speed. The simulation result on the E-n30-k3 test specimen shows that the Pareto set obtained by this algorithm can provide manifold paths for decision makers to solve CVRPs.
