The problem is classified as NP-hard. A new, hybrid Firefly Algorithm (FA) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) strategy are brought together. The approach is implemented and tested on the TSP. Experiment results show that the hybrid approach produces a better route when compared to (FA and GA) for the same number of iterations. ER -
