Ant colony optimization algorithm

[@LaplacescherDaemon]

I really like that in this Video not only the ant or the math part is shown, but instead both

[@crusatyr1452]

You saying "vertice" instead of "vertex" took a second for me to get used to lol

[@crusatyr1452]

​@@Radnugget No yeah, but that's not entirely relevant because it's a common alternative to "vertex", at least common enough to be on Wiktionary.

[@josiahmanson]

@@crusatyr1452 being a non-native english speaker is relevant. a native speaker would know that vertex doesn't follow the regular rule for pluralization of just adding an 's'. typing vertice gets a red squiggle from the spell checker while typing this comment, but my spell checker does not suggest the correct singular form, so i could easily see that even if it was marked as wrong, it isn't clear how to correctly fix.

[@crusatyr1452]

@@josiahmanson No, I completely agree. My reply wasn't the most precise way of conveying what I meant to, admittedly. My main point was that it's common enough among native-speakers to have a place on Wiktionary (if you except that premise). By "relevant" I could've said smth like "necessary" in the sense that the error alone doesn't necessary mean that they're non-native.

@@nester3190 I don't know how to make this more clear. "No yeah, but that's not entirely relevant" "No, I completely agree." These obv make it clear that I recognize that this person doesn't speak English natively.

Can we make a subreddit or discord? It would be nice for people who watch this channel to share their own attempts at implemanthing these algorithems.

[@lettuceturnipthebeets790]

the author is quite busy with his current work and studying for data science, also translating the videos takes some space, so I doubt he'd have spare time managing a discord channel or a subreddit :

@@jimster1111 the last one sounded like an AI too for me, just a better one. But might've been a narrator, doesn't matter too much to me, what matters is that this one is hard to listen to.

[@kylemorris5338]

Solving a problem via algorithm whose brute-force solution would require "all computers and billions of years" is pretty much the textbook example of "work smarter, not harder"

[@Yay295]

This algorithm doesn't necessarily find the best result though.

[@lettuceturnipthebeets790]

@@Yay295 as they say, best is enemy of good enough :>

[@Yay295]

@@lettuceturnipthebeets790 Sure, but usually when people say "work smarter, not harder", the expectation is that the end result is the same. This algorithm isn't that much smarter than brute-force - you're still comparing complete solutions against each other to see which is best - this algorithm is only faster because you're not checking all of the solutions. If you actually did check all of the solutions using this algorithm it would actually be slower than brute-force because of the overhead of the algorithm itself.

[@thinkandmove479]

Yeah, then work smarter and not harder, and prove that P != NP

[@hisao1291]

This was an amazing video to explain the concept. Thanks for making it this complete !

[@looalx_WD]

CRAZY GOOD QUALITY in terms of clarity and knowledge. THX MUCH

[@relativepi5046]

This is one of the coolest things I have seen, and I love how you explained it!

[@Paladiea]

Vertex is the singular of vertices.

[@b10ckh0usesurv10rs]

I think that the first voice was better, also a suggestion from me is that if you made one of those simulation games with this and added the cumulative knowledge of previous videos you could become more popular

[@pfever]

great video! I really appreciate how every formula is explained in detail!

[@Abir_Hasan_Onowy]

Thank you so much. The animations were very helpful to understand the whole concept specially the iteration part

[@nidhalabidi69]

Amazing explanation! I have a question: When calculating the probability of moving from city_i to city_j at 11:58, what should we do when the amount of pheromone is 0 on all edges. According to the formula we're going to divide by zero!! As a solution for this can we give it a small non-zero initialization?

[@tar0nja]

Honey wake up, Simulife Hub posted a new video!!!

[@VijayVighnesh]

A good video to get clarity on ANT colony optimization...

[@qualia765]

Could you make a video about algorithm that optimize 2d graphs. So a graph with say 200 nodes where each node has 1-3 connections to other nodes and it needs to move the nodes in a way that is easy to see the connections by a human. I had this problem (and still do) for a hobby of mine and was only able to make an algorithm that worked up to about 100 nodes before manually manipulating it results in a better graph. I am wondering if you could have better results. The algorithm that I use a physic simulation kinda. Every node has velocity and moves with it (although there is a lot of friction) and then they get a force towards connected nodes and a force away from other ones.

[@ryvikun4325]

absolutely great way of explaining it! i believe even a 12 year old can understand this concept just by watching this video 🤯

[@Xx_babanne_avcisi27_xX]

last voice better

[@Henriiyy]

Definitely, I didn't even notice at first, that the voice in the last video wasn't a human.

[@dustinmock5016]

I agree, the old one also reminds me of someone smart, this one is just like a generic AI voice

[@Xx_babanne_avcisi27_xX]

@@dustinmock5016 bro i agree with that sooo much.

[@revimfadli4666]

I wonder if this would be effective for the economic simulation mentioned in the previous video

how you decide the proximity value? is it 1 / distance?
