Simulated Annealing (SA) is the oldest probabilistic meta-heuristic algorithm and one of the first algorithms having ability to avoid being trapped in local minima. It is inspired by the process of annealing in metallurgy. In this process a m

Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm (ACO) and TSP ACO algorithm mimics the behavior of real life ants and on how they interact with each other. The basic philosophy of the algorithm involves the movement of a colony of ants through the different stat
