A novel sweep-based transiently chaotic neural network (STCNN) algorithm for Capacity Vehicle Routing Problem (CVRP) is proposed. CVRP can be partitioned into two kinds of decisions: the selection of vehicles among the available vehicles and the routing of the selected fleet. The proposed algorithm first generates a number of routes that are served by vehicles and then solves the routes to optimality. Simulations show that the proposed algorithm produces excellent solutions in short computing times.
