Abstract

It is widely known that the ant colony algorithm is sensitive to changes in parameters. We present a novel kind of the algorithm which uses a genetic algorithm for solving this problem. Travelling salesman problem, known as NP-complete problem, is one of the most popular and important tasks in combinatorial optimization. This is a typical task for testing combinatorial optimization algorithms. In this paper, we present a comparative analysis of the algorithm with a simple ant colony optimization (SACO) on the example of this problem.
