The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you’ve been making the same commute for a long time, you’ve probably settled on what seems like the best route. But “best” is a ...

Abstract: To address the limitations of the traditional Dijkstra algorithm in two-dimensional path optimization problems, this article uses ant colony algorithm to optimize the Dijkstra algorithm, ...
