The multi-objective hybridization of particle swarm optimization and fuzzy ant colony optimization

In this paper, we illustrate a novel optimization approach based on Multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimization (MOPSO) and Fuzzy Ant Colony Optimization (FACO). The basic idea is to combine these two techniques using the best particle of the Fuzzy Ant algorithm and integrate it as the best local Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), to formulate a new approach called hybrid MOPSO with FACO (H-MOPSO-FACO). This hybridization solves the multi-objective problem, which relies on both time performance criteria and the shortest path. Experimental results illustrate that the proposed method is efficient.Web of Science27152551
