This paper merges hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL) with ant colony optimization (ACO) to produce a HRL ACO algorithm capable of generating solutions for large domains. Th...
This paper introduces the concept of a critical backbone as a minimal set of variables or part of the solution necessary to be within the basin of attraction of the global optimum...
