....trails reflect the memory of the ant population. The quantity of the pheromone deposited on paths depends on both, the length of the paths as well as the quality of the food source found. The observation of this behavior has led to the development of Ant Systems by Colorni et al. see e.g. [2]) in the early nineties. In artificial terms the optimization method uses the trail following behavior described above in the following way. Ants construct solutions by making a number of decisions probabilistically. In the beginning there is no collective memory, and the ants can only follow some ....

....with using teams of very simple robots. Such teams have been applied to many tasks, including motion tasks such as flocking and dispersal [Mataric, 1993; Mataric, 1992] gathering (i.e. moving a large number of objects to a central location) Noreils, 1993] and simulation of social insects [Colorni et al. 1992; Drogoul et al. 1992] The work described here shares an emphasis on using groups of simple robots, without any central control. However, to our knowledge, this methodology has not previously been applied to the problem addressed in this paper: finding a path for a specific robot from a ....

....the eciency of the method. Jin and Reynolds do not discuss the computation cost of building belief maps in the presence of non linear optimization constraints, and their approach might be sensitive to high dimensionality. 6. 6 Ant colony optimization This technique was proposed by Dorigo et al. [30, 48, 47, 46] and it consists of a meta heuristic intended for hard combinatorial optimization problems such as the traveling salesperson. The main algorithm is really a multi agent system where low level interactions between single agents (i.e. arti cial ants) result in a complex behavior of the whole ant ....

....in which a probabilistic decision (state transition) rule is applied. In practice, when in node i the ant chooses the node j to move to, and the arc (i; j) is added to the tour under construction. This step is repeated until the ant has completed its tour. Three AS algorithms have been de ned [19, 33, 39, 40], which di er by the way pheromone trails are updated. These algorithms are called ant density, ant quantity, and ant cycle. In ant density and ant quantity ants deposit pheromone while building a solution, while in ant cycle ants deposit pheromone after they have built a complete tour. ....
