Application of Genetic Algorithms in Design of Public Transport Network

Journal Title: Logistics and Transport - Year 2015, Vol 26, Issue 2

Abstract

The paper presents possibilities of application of genetic algorithms in design of public transport network. Transportation tasks such as determination of optimal routes and timetable for means of transport belong to difficult complex optimization problems, therefore they cannot be solved using traditional search algorithms. It turns out that genetic algorithms can be very useful to solve these transportation problem.
