Convergence analysis of ant colony learning
In this paper, we study the convergence of the pheromone levels of Ant Colony Learning (ACL) in the setting of discrete state spaces and noiseless state transitions. ACL is a multi-agent approach for learning control policies that combines some of the principles found in ant colony optimization and reinforcement learning. Convergence of the pheromone levels in expected value is a necessary requ...
متن کاملAn Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm for Network Vulnerability Analysis
Intruders often combine exploits against multiple vulnerabilities in order to break into the system. Each attack scenario is a sequence of exploits launched by an intruder that leads to an undesirable state such as access to a database, service disruption, etc. The collection of possible attack scenarios in a computer network can be represented by a directed graph, called network attack gra...
متن کاملExperiment Study of Entropy Convergence of Ant Colony Optimization
Abstract Ant colony optimization (ACO) has been applied to the field of combinatorial optimization widely. But the study of convergence theory of ACO is rare under general condition. In this paper, the authors try to find the evidence to prove that entropy is related to the convergence of ACO, especially to the estimation of the minimum iteration number of convergence. Entropy is a new view poi...
متن کاملAnt Colony Optimization for Adaptive Learning
-This paper aims to produce the best Learning Object (LO) for the learners in e-learning based on the learner characteristics. Delivery of optimal learning objects is a challenging task because the learning object (e.g. learning content, materials) should be suitable for learner’s knowledge. To forecast the best learning objects, the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) with learner characteristics ha...
متن کاملAnt Colony Learning Algorithm for Optimal Control
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is an optimization heuristic for solving combinatorial optimization problems and it is inspired by the swarming behavior of foraging ants. ACO has been successfully applied in various domains, such as routing and scheduling. In particular, the agents, called ants here, are very efficient at sampling the problem space and quickly finding good solutions. Motivated by...
