This study explores the adaptation of multi-colony ACO algorithms, known for their enhanced search capabilities in stationary problems, to tackle optimization problems in dynamic environments. Various strategies for exchanging information between colonies, which is a critical factor influencing algorithm performance, are investigated. Using the dynamic traveling salesman problem as a foundation, we generate test cases to reflect real-world complexities. Our results on a set of problem instances reveal that the choice of communication strategy between colonies significantly impacts the adaptability and efficiency of multi-colony ACO algorithms in tracking moving optimum. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/34995 | ISBN: | [9798350308365] | DOI: | 10.1109/CEC60901.2024.10612135 | Type: | Conference Proceedings | Affiliation : | ERATOSTHENES Centre of Excellence Hubei Key Laboratory of Advanced Control and Intelligent Automation for Complex Systems China University of Geosciences University of Technology Sydney Cyprus University of Technology |
