The paper presents a hybrid metaheuristic method ACO-H for combinatorial optimization problems that combines two population-based approaches – ant colony optimization (ACO) and H-method. ACO is a multi-agent metaheuristic that has been successfully applied to many difficult optimization problems. H-method is an extension of the discrete downhill simplex method that applies during the search process specially defined segments. Similar to H-method ideas were introduced in the context of tabu search and now are known as path relinking.
