Abstract

Introduction This paper presents a proposal to apply the meta-heuristic Optimization Based on Variable Meshes (VMO) to the discreet problem of the Traveler Seller (TSP); This model explores the search space to Objective from a population of solutions called mesh that expands and contracts in order to find good quality solutions. In this context, the expansion operator is modified in such a way that it is applicable in a discrete domain, making combinations among the solutions in order to obtain new nodes. Another element that is modified is the clearing operator, which is responsible for maintaining the diversity of the mesh in each interaction. Methodology. A study of VMO model parameters is summarized in this paper, using a set of TSP instances with different characteristics; In addition, it can be observed that the proposal of this work obtains competitive results when compared with other international reference algorithms mentioned in the state of the art. The work is structured as follows: Section 1 describes the fundamental aspects of the TSP study problem. Then, in the second, the general functioning of VMO is explained, in the third one, each of the expansion and contraction operators is defined for the study problem. Later in the fourth section a study of the parameters of the proposal and an experimental comparative analysis with the results obtained with other algorithms mentioned in the state of the art is made. Conclusions Other operators of generation of new nodes were applied in the expansion process, where a combination of solutions is made in order to comply with the restrictions imposed by the problem.
