We introduced an edge routing decision problem called the Police Officer Patrol Problem (POPP), which is related to the vertex cover problem, and proved that POPP on mixed graphs is NP-complete. More recently, building on POPP, we proposed the Generalized Police Officer Patrol Problem (GPOPP) and developed a hybrid heuristic framework that integrates evolutionary computation with the Jaya algorithm. In this study, we introduce a connectivity-based mutation operator for vertices and a decomposed Jaya algorithm, and demonstrate their effectiveness through numerical experiments.
