摘要
In this paper we present a new approach to solve the q-MST problem by using a genetic algorithm. A skillful encoding for trees, denoted by Prufer number, is adopted for GA operation. On comparing with the existing heuristic algorithms by 17 randomly generated numerical examples from 6-vertex graph to 50-vertex graph, the new GA approach shows its high effectiveness in solving the q-MST problem and real value in the practical network optimization.
