The problem is modeled by means of a bipartite graph. New heuristic patterns, which are used in order to choose a vertex to a created covering set have been incorporated into modified hybrid algorithms. Results of tests on investigated algorithms are discussed}, doi = {10.4467/2353737XCT.14.004.1992}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/czasopismo-techniczne/article/ant-colony-optimization-algorithm-for-the-set-covering-problem} }
