# NinjaBees



Simulation of a bee colony.

Bees try to discover all food sources in the simulated world.

Bee Colony Optimization Algorithm as Core Algorithm:

- Employed Bee Phase

- Onlooker Bee Phase

Natural Behavior of Bees:

- Scout Bee remembers path to food

- Forager Bee uses one of all known path to get food

- If Scout Bee finds a shorter path, update path to food

- Information is only shared inside the Hive

# Demo

## Initial Phase of the Bee Colony

# Usage

```bash

usage: ninja_bees [-h] [--version] [--world-width WORLD_WIDTH] [--world-height WORLD_HEIGHT] [--number-bees NUMBER_BEES] [--max-cnt-foraging-bees MAX_CNT_FORAGING_BEES] [--number-food-sources NUMBER_FOOD_SOURCES] [--best-nutrition-score BEST_NUTRITION_SCORE]

Simulation of a bee colony using the bee colony optimization algorithm.
