Algorithm inspired by slime mold foraging

Thursday, February 27, 2020 - 09:50 in Mathematics & Economics

Nature has provided a great deal of inspiration for computer scientists developing search algorithms and ways to solve complicated problems with as little computing power as possible. Ant colonies, beehives, bat hunting, and now slime mold foraging can be used as models on which an algorithm can be constructed.
