Abstract

In this paper, we apply a basic Bee Colony Optimization algorithm in order to find a high-quality solution for the constrained portfolio optimization problem. Moreover, we use a basic Ant Colony Optimization algorithm and a Tabu Search metaheuristic approach as a benchmark. Our findings indicate that nature-inspired methodologies are able to find feasible solutions for dynamic optimization problems in a reasonable amount of time in contrast with the simple tabu search.
