Notation

Description

\({H}_{0}\)

Initial set of hyperparameters

\({P}_{0}\)

Initial pheromone levels

\(N\)

Number of ants in the colony

\({I}_{max}\)

Maximum number of iterations allowed

\(\rho\)

Pheromone evaporation rate

\(\Delta P\)

Change in pheromone level is proportional to the fitness of solutions

\(F\)

Fitness values corresponding to each ant's hyperparameters

\(\epsilon\)

A small threshold value for convergence check

\({H}^{*}\)

The best set of hyperparameters found
