ACOplan is a planner based on the ant colony optimization framework. Using the ACO framework to solve planning optimization problems, one of the main issues to address is the choice of informative and easy to compute pheromone models.

Abstract

ACOplan is a planner based on the ant colony optimization framework. Using the ACO framework to solve planning optimization problems, one of the main issues to address is the choice of informative and easy to compute pheromone models. In this paper we present and discuss an experimental evaluation of the several pheromone models implemented in ACOPlan. The experiments have been run solving the problems used in the last planning competition. The results suggest that fuzzy pheromone models represents a suitable tradeoff between performance and cost.
