Optimization of a classical algorithm for the alignment of genomic sequences with artificial bee colony

In this article, the classic algorithms "Needleman-Wunsh" and "Smith-Waterman" are reviewed with which the alignment of genomic sequences is generated. The Smith-Waterman is improved with the aim of optimizing said process in order to provide optimal results through the implementation of Artificial Bee Colony. The experiments that are carried out show alternative alignments that the classical methods do not find easiest, however they can be found in the analyzed data.
