Abstract

This paper studies the probabilistic based evolutionary algorithms in dealing with bi-objective travelling salesman problem. Multi-objective restricted Boltzmann machine and univariate marginal distribution algorithm in binary representation are modified into permutation based representation. Each city is represented by an integer number and the probability distributions of the cities are constructed by running the modeling approach. A refinement operator and a local exploitation operator are proposed in this work. The probabilistic based evolutionary optimizers are subsequently combined with genetic based evolutionary optimizer to complement the limitations of both algorithms.
