Exercises: Ant Colony Optimization


Prerequisites

  • Basic knowledge of Matlab programming

Overview

In this exercise we focus on using ACO in order to find solutions for TSP.

Ant colony optimization (ACO) is a population-based metaheuristic that can be used to find approximate solutions to difficult optimization problems.

In Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) you are given a list of cities and their pairwise distances, the task is to find a shortest possible tour that visits each city exactly once.
