At first glance, the world of ants may seem far removed from our everyday lives. Yet, on closer inspection, they often face ...

Abstract: Aiming at the problems of the traditional ant colony algorithm in large-scale complex mountain environments, such as low global search efficiency, slow convergence speed, excessive path ...

Ant societies rely on precise recognition systems to maintain cooperation, but new research reveals that these systems are more adaptable than once believed. For ants, quickly telling friend from foe ...

Abstract: To address the slow convergence and local optima inherent in traditional ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithms for large-scale path optimization, this paper proposes a dualstrategy ...
