Abstract

The Genetic Algorithm is a popular optimization technique which is bio-inspired and is based on the concepts of natural genetics and natural selection theories. The main idea is to propose a new representation method of chromosomes using binary matrix and new fittest criteria to be used as method for finding the optimal solution for TSP. The idea is taken from genetic algorithm of artificial inelegance as a basic ingredient which has been used as search algorithm to find the near-optimal solutions is proposed. Now we are introducing the new fittest criteria for crossing over, and applying the algorithm on symmetric as well as asymmetric TSP, also presenting asymmetric problem in a new and different way.
