Application of Ant Colony Optimizer (ACO) For Effective Path Planning in a Big-Box Store or Retail Facility

ABSTRACTReal-life stochastic problems are better addressed by adopting metaheuristic techniques. One of the interesting metaheuristic techniques for defining the shortest path is the ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm. A considerable number of maps for shortest path have been considered in time past using classical techniques which is appropriate for deterministic variables. For stochastic or nondeterministic decision variables, metaheuristic techniques are much more appropriate. This is...
