A Pheromonal Artificial Bee Colony (pABC) Algorithm for Discrete Optimization Problems

The Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm, which simulates the intelligent foraging behavior of the honeybee colony, is one of the most preferred swarm intelligence-based metaheuristic methods for combinatorial optimization problems. In this study, the local search ability of the ABC algorithm, whic...
