Luca Maria Gambardella (born January 4, 1962) has been co-director of the Swiss AI lab IDSIA since 1995. Together with former IDSIA senior researcher Marco Dorigo and others he made substantial contributions to the rapidly growing research field of ant colony optimization, a set of multi-agent methods inspired by the pheromone-based communication of biological ants. His combinations of artificial ants and local search algorithms have become a method of choice for the solution of numerous optimization problems involving some sort of graph, such as the well-known traveling salesman problem. He is also ''Chief Scientific Officer'' of the IDSIA spin-off AntOptima, whose commercial applications of 'Ant Colony Optimization' include vehicle routing for large commercial truck fleets, and the management of container flow through the largest Mediterranean container terminal. ==Selected scholarly publications== *Ant Algorithms for Discrete Optimization.
