Combining two pheromone structures for solving the car sequencing problem with Ant Colony Optimization
The car sequencing problem involves scheduling cars along an assembly line while satisfying capacity constraints. In this paper, we describe an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algor...

Ant colony optimization techniques for the vehicle routing problem
This research applies the meta-heuristic method of ant colony optimization (ACO) to an established set of vehicle routing problems (VRP). The procedure simulates the decision-maki...

A running time analysis of an Ant Colony Optimization algorithm for shortest paths in directed acyclic graphs
In this paper, we prove polynomial running time bounds for an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm for the single-destination shortest path problem on directed acyclic graphs. ...

Niching for Population-Based Ant Colony Optimization
Most Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithms are able to find a single (or few) optimal, or near-optimal, solutions to difficult (NP-hard) problems. An issue though is that a s...
