Abstract: For the capacitated vehicle routing problem, this paper proposes a variable neighborhood quantum firework algorithm which integrates the quantum evolutionary algorithm and variable neighborhood optimization strategy. The proposed algorithm adopts a real number encoding method which combines uniform random keys and largest order value strategy. In addition, the proposed algorithm applies the quantum revolving door and gate mutation to improve the global search ability. Moreover, the proposed algorithm uses the variable neighborhood optimization strategy with 2-Opt to enhance the local search performance. 17 benchmark instances are applied to the parameter experiment and the comparison experiment. The experimental results show that, compared with the alternative algorithms, the proposed algorithm has a better optimal ability and a convergence speed.
