Genetic Algorithm and Aritifical Bee Colony Visualization

This project is a small visualization on how Genetic Algorithm and Artificial Bee Colony behave in a 2D search space.

NOTE: This was done for a small seminar project, the code for the algorithms is therefore not production ready.

Installation

This project requires Python 3.10 or newer and uses poetry as a dependency management tool.

First you need to install poetry as described in the official documentation. After successfull installation execute the following command:

poetry install

This will install all dependencies and scripts.
