Ant colony optimization theory: A survey [PDF]
Research on a new metaheuristic for optimization is often initially focused on proof-of-concept applications. It is only after experimental work has shown the practical interest of the method that researchers try to deepen their understanding of the method's functioning not only through more and more sophisticated experiments but also by means of an ...

Test pattern optimization scheme based on Hybrid Ant Colony Optimization [PDF]
The trend toward device miniaturization has made digital circuit testing both essential and increasingly complex. To achieve complete fault coverage, a large number of test patterns are applied, which leads to increased switching activity due to larger ...

Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a stochastic local search method that has been inspired by the pheromone trail laying and following behavior of some ant species [1]. Artificial ants in ACO essentially are randomized construction procedures that generate solutions based on (artificial) pheromone trails and heuristic information that are associated to ...

Swarm intelligence is a relatively novel approach to problem solving that takes inspiration from the social behaviors of insects and of other animals. In particular, ants have inspired a number of methods and techniques among which the most studied and the most successful one is the ant colony optimization.
