  2. Ant colony optimization algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ant_colony_optimization...

    In the ant colony optimization algorithms, an artificial ant is a simple computational agent that searches for good solutions to a given optimization problem. To apply an ant colony algorithm, the optimization problem needs to be converted into the problem of finding the shortest path on a weighted graph. In the first step of each iteration ...

  3. Humanoid ant algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humanoid_Ant_algorithm

    The humanoid ant algorithm (HUMANT) [1] is an ant colony optimization algorithm. The algorithm is based on a priori approach to multi-objective optimization (MOO), which means that it integrates decision-makers preferences into optimization process. [2] Using decision-makers preferences, it actually turns multi-objective problem into single ...

  4. Simulated annealing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulated_annealing

    Reactive search optimization focuses on combining machine learning with optimization, by adding an internal feedback loop to self-tune the free parameters of an algorithm to the characteristics of the problem, of the instance, and of the local situation around the current solution. Genetic algorithms maintain a pool of solutions rather than ...

  5. List of metaphor-based metaheuristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metaphor-based...

    The ant colony optimization algorithm is a probabilistic technique for solving computational problems that can be reduced to finding good paths through graphs.Initially proposed by Marco Dorigo in 1992 in his PhD thesis, [1] [2] the first algorithm aimed to search for an optimal path in a graph based on the behavior of ants seeking a path between their colony and a source of food.

  6. Tabu search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabu_search

    Tabu search is often benchmarked against other metaheuristic methods — such as simulated annealing, genetic algorithms, ant colony optimization algorithms, reactive search optimization, guided local search, or greedy randomized adaptive search. In addition, tabu search is sometimes combined with other metaheuristics to create hybrid methods.

  7. Swarm intelligence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swarm_intelligence

    Ant colony optimization (ACO), introduced by Dorigo in his doctoral dissertation, is a class of optimization algorithms modeled on the actions of an ant colony. ACO is a probabilistic technique useful in problems that deal with finding better paths through graphs.
