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...
Beam-ACO algorithms are hybrid methods that combine the metaheuristic ant colony optimization with beam search. They heavily rely on accurate and computationally inexpensive boundi...
—Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm is a novel meta-heuristic algorithm for the approximate solution of combinatorial optimization problems that has been inspired by the for...
