文摘In this paper the population based incremental learning method is extended to a form of multiple traits for one gene to reflect pleiotropic and polygenic characters in natural evolved systems and the entropy of a probability distribution is used to decide the evolvability of the system. This method is used to solve a typical combinatorial optimization problem ─ the symmetric traveling salesman problem. Some results are better than the best existing algorithm of evolutionary algorithms for the problem.
