Smart Grid Optimization
Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) is a metaheuristic optimization algorithm inspired by the foraging behavior of ants. It utilizes the principle of pheromone trails to find optimal solutions in complex problems, such as routing and scheduling. ACO mimics how ants deposit pheromones on paths they traverse, allowing other ants to follow stronger trails, which leads to better solutions over time through a process of collective learning and adaptation.
congrats on reading the definition of Ant Colony Optimization. now let's actually learn it.
