Specifically, given two input networks, the tool finds an alignment between them (i.e., a mapping between the respective nodes) that optimizes one out of the three main topological measures. Additionally, it can make use of user-defined pairwise similarities between nodes during its construction phase, allowing for the use of more application-dependent information in order to increase its performance. Results show that AntNetAlign outperforms other state-of-the-art algorithms in two out of the three aforementioned topological scores within a reasonable amount of time, and is able to achieve competitive results in the context of larger instances (Rodríguez Corominas et al., 2023). Furthermore, a new version of the algorithm, which makes use of Negative Learning, was able to further improve these results, specially in the EC score (Corominas et al., 2022).Guillem Rodríguez Corominas gets support from the Department of Research and Universities of the Government of Catalonia by means of an ESF-founded pre-doctoral grant of the Catalan Agency for Management of University and Research Grants (AGAUR, Catalonia, Spain), under ref. number 2022 FI_B 00903.
