This paper deals with transport user equilibrium. A modified version of the ant colony system is proposed where the ant colony heuristic is adapted in order to take into account a...
Rich vehicle routing problems try to represent situations that can be found in reality. Starting from a case study, in this paper a rich vehicle routing problem is analyzed. The e...

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...
In this paper a Population-based Ant Colony Optimization approach is proposed to solve multi-criteria optimization problems where the population of solutions is chosen from the set...
In this paper we introduce Ant-Q, a family of algorithms which present many similarities with Q-learning (Watkins, 1989), and which we apply to the solution of symmetric and asymm...
