Abstract: The Evolutionary Computation has grown much in last few years. Inspired by biological evolution, this field is used to solve NP-hard optimization problems to come up with best solution. TSP is most popular and complex problem used to evaluate different algorithms. In this paper, we have conducted a comparative analysis between NSGA-II, NSGA-III, SPEA-2, MOEA/D and VEGA to find out which algorithm best suited for MOTSP problems. The results reveal that the MOEA/D performed better than other three algorithms in terms of more hypervolume, lower value of generational distance (GD), inverse generational distance (IGD) and adaptive epsilon. On the other hand, MOEA-D took more time than rest of the algorithms.
