Abstract

In this paper, we proposed a hybridized soft computing technique to solve a restricted 4-dimensional TSP (r-4DTSP) where different paths with various numbers of conveyances are available to travel between two cities. Here, some restrictions on paths and conveyances are imposed. The algorithm is a hybridization of genetic algorithm (GA) and swap operator-based particle swarm optimization (PSO). The initial solutions are produced by proposed GA which used as swarm in PSO. The said hybrid algorithm (GA-PSO) is tested against some test functions, and efficiency of the proposed algorithm is established. The r-4DTSPs are considered with crisp costs. The models are illustrated with some numerical data.
