In several species of ants, workers cooperate to retrieve large prey. Usually, one ant finds a prey item, tries to move it, and when unsuccessful for some time, recruits nestmates...
The Ant-Miner algorithm, first proposed by Parpinelli and colleagues, applies an ant colony optimization heuristic to the classification task of data mining to discover an ordered...
It is often believed that the performance of ant system, and in general of ant colony optimization algorithms, depends somehow on the scale of the problem instance at hand. The iss...
