Simulated Kalman Filter (SKF) is a population-based optimization algorithm which exploits the estimation capability of Kalman filter to search for a solution in a continuous search space. The SKF algorithm only capable to solve numerical optimization problems which involve continuous search space. Some problems, such as routing and scheduling, involve binary or discrete search space. At present, there are three modifications to the original SKF algorithm in solving combinatorial optimization problems. Those modified algorithms are binary SKF (BSKF), angle modulated SKF (AMSKF), and distance evaluated SKF (DESKF). These three combinatorial SKF algo-rithms use binary encoding to represent the solution to a combinatorial optimization problem. This paper introduces the latest version of distance evaluated SKF which uses state encoding, instead of binary encoding, to represent the solution to a combinatorial problem. The algorithm proposed in this paper is called state-encoded distance evaluated SKF (SEDESKF) algorithm. Since the original SKF algo-rithm tends to converge prematurely, the distance is handled differently in this study. To control and exploration and exploitation of the SEDESKF algorithm, the distance is normalized. The performance of the SEDESKF algorithm is compared against the existing combi-natorial SKF algorithm based on a set of Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP).
