A Two Stage Clustering Method Combining Self-Organizing Maps and Ant K-Means
This paper proposes a clustering method SOMAK, which is composed by Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) followed by the Ant K-means (AK) algorithm. The aim of this method is not to find an...

Parallel Ant Colony Optimization for the Traveling Salesman Problem
There are two reasons for parallelizing a metaheuristic if one is interested in performance: (i) given a fixed time to search, the aim is to increase the quality of the solutions f...
