• abstract = "Ant Colony Optimization is a bio-inspired technique that can be applied to solve hard optimisation problems. A key issue is how to design the communication mechanism between ants that allows them to effectively solve a problem. We propose a novel approach to this issue by evolving the current pheromone trail update methods. Results obtained with the TSP show that the evolved strategies perform well and exhibit a good generalisation capability when applied to larger instances.",
