An exploration technique for the interacted multiple ant colonies optimization framework

Interacted Multiple Ant Colonies Optimization (IMACO) is a newly proposed framework. In this framework several colonies of artificial ants are utilized. These colonies are working cooperatively to solve an optimization problem using some interaction technique. Exploration technique is doing an essen...
