@futurebird So 350K neurons times the number of ants in the foraging group - that's in the millions of neurons, I think. That does seem more efficient than a meta-heuristic.

If you want to make a program that makes choices like a living thing.18 days ago@futurebird How many neurons does a worker ant's nervous system have?

If you want to make a program that makes choices like a living thing.18 days ago@futurebird As far as I know the people working in this area - meta-heuristics for complex optimization - mostly use methods derived with computer science / discrete math, rather than by modeling living organisms or colonies of them. They have test sets and competitions just like the AI folks do.
