Best-Worst Ant System

The Best-Worst Ant System (BWAS) is an optimization technique inspired by how ants find efficient paths. It uses multiple simulated "ants" to explore solutions, with each ant choosing options based on past successes. BWAS guides these ants by emphasizing the best (most successful) and worst (least successful) solutions found so far, adjusting how they explore options. This approach helps the system quickly identify high-quality solutions by favoring promising choices and avoiding poor ones, making it effective for solving complex problems like routing, scheduling, or resource allocation.
