Image feature selection (FS) is an important task which can affect the performance of image classification and recognition. In this paper, we present a feature selection algorithm ...
One of the most important, common and critical management issues lies in determining the "best" project portfolio out of a given set of investment proposals. As this dec...

Ant colony optimization (ACO) is a well known metaheuristic. In the literature it has been used for tackling many optimization problems. Often, ACO is hybridized with a local sear...
In this paper we introduce model-based search as a unifying framework accommodating some recently proposed metaheuristics for combinatorial optimization such as ant colony optimiza...

: In this paper we propose a new approach to Swarm Intelligence called Two-Step Swarm Intelligence. The basic idea is to split the heuristic search performed by agents into two sta...
