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— This paper presents a genetic algorithmic approach for finding efficient paths in directed graphs when optimizing multiple objectives. Its aim is to provide solutions...
Abstract. In this paper we present an estimation of distribution particle swarm optimization algorithm that borrows ideas from recent developments in ant colony optimization. In th...
- In routing, finding a rectilinear Steiner minimal tree (RSMT) is a fundamental problem. Today's design often contains rectilinear obstacles, like macro cells, IP blocks, and...
We introduce the study of live social insect colonies as a relevant and exciting domain for the development and application of multi-agent systems modeling tools. Social insects p...
