FlyAntClass: Intelligent move for ant based clustering algorithm

This paper provides a new method for arranging data sets into clusters. The proposed model, called FlyAntClass, starts from the ants collective sorting behavior and overwrites it with additional behaviors inspired from birds and spiders: in this context, birds' moving behavior is used to control next relative positions for a moving ant; and spiders' homing behavior is provided to manage movements of ants with conflict situation.
