Abstract. The previously proposed cunning ant system (cAS), a variant of the ACO algorithm, worked well on the TSP and the results showed that the cAS could be one of the most prom...
Abstract. Consultant-Guided Search (CGS) is a recent swarm intelligence metaheuristic for combinatorial optimization problems, inspired by the way real people make decisions based ...
In recent decades, many meta-heuristics, including genetic algorithm (GA), ant colony optimization (ACO) and various local search (LS) procedures have been developed for solving a...
Abstract. Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a paradigm that employs a set of cooperating agents to solve functions or obtain good solutions for combinatorial optimization problems. ...
Combinatorial optimization problems require computing efforts which grow at least exponentially with the problem dimension. Therefore, the use of the remarkable power of massively...
