A Deterministic Metaheuristic Approach Using "Logistic Ants" for Combinatorial Optimization
Abstract. Ant algorithms are usually derived from a stochastic modeling based on some specific probability laws. We consider in this paper a full deterministic model of "logis...

How to Use Ants for Hierarchical Clustering
Abstract. We present in this paper, a new model for document hierarchical clustering, which is inspired from the self-assembly behavior of real ants. We have simulated the way ants...
